Artist Biography
Available in:
Moscow Grooves Institute appeared on the Moscow electronic stage in 1995. The starting point for Arcadiy Marto and Boris Nazarov were weekly performances on the radio - ambient experiments, rhythmically hip-hop based.

These night jams became the basis of the first album "Surround Wednesday” (1998), whose popularity was unexpected, which made it a philophonic rarity nowadays.

In the 1999 the M.G.I gets a new research fellow - a bass player Sergei Belyayev, who "gave us the funk" on his bass-'kalashnikov' and made the rhythm section a lot thicker. At the same time "Pizza" comes out, the stylistic basis for "Pizza" is a subtly played electrofunk and drum'n'bass with trip-hop, ethno, and lounge influences, atmospheric guitars and wind solos, including saxophone, clarinet, even a horn. The dish is seasoned with speech and noise samples. Despite its being recorded two years before the release, the album sounds topical and interesting still today.

The next one in the MGI's discography was "Commercial", a collection featuring previously unreleased tracks, ones from various compilations and several remixes, including ones for the hit "Lucky Bride" by Mumiy Troll and a lyrical song by Megapolis called "A Woman's Heart". The record was fresh and full of ideas, although a bit eclectic.

One of the MGI's first videos was shot for the track "Stereophonique". The next year saw the album Tangibility, a quintessence of MGI's experimental approach to sound and composition. The music became more multifaceted but still light, the rhythmic basis got thicker. As the musicians say, Tangibility addresses "freely-thinking active people remembering that music is an art, first of all".
