Here it is, new cd mix from minimal world star Noon(at (DJ Alex Meshkov),
looks like promo action of cafe Voyage in St Petersburg by using cooproducing
by Noon(at CD1 with cafe resident Roma Light CD2.
Alex was born in the old Russian town of Smolensk in the family of
military paramedics. With his parents getting assignments all around
Russia and abroad, Alex traveled a lot with them, including several
unforgettable years in Germany. In the year 1989 he moved over to
reside in Moscow. As it often happens in medical families, he
decided to follow his parents' professional tradition, but after
spending two years in the Moscow Medical Academy Alex
understood that medicine was not his purpose in life - he decided
to quit without any doubts. In 1993 he found himself interested in
avant-garde fashion. He learned to cut and to saw on his own by
the books; drawing was always one of his favorites. Simultaneously
with fashion-design Alex works on art-objects - his works have been
exhibited in the Central House of Artists in Moscow; one of the most
interesting exhibitions took place in Yekaterinburg. In the year 1996
the "PTUCH" magazine awarded Alexei Meshkov as the best avant-
garde designer - he received their "Golden Ptuch" prize. Alex coped
with his fame in a rather strange way - quite soon he became
bored with fashion design. Long before taking his final decision to
become a DJ, Alex was making his own mixes for his fashion shows.
His first dj-set on the turntables was played on the 28th of
December 1996 in "Aquatoria" club. Later Alex could be spotted
appearing under the name of DJ Tuk in various Moscow night clubs.
In a while he became the resident-DJ of the legendary "Substation"
radio station, being remembered from that time for industrially-dark
atmosphere of his night airs - Psychic TV & Trobbing Gristle, dark
ambient & trip-hop, Saturday morning techno & electro shows. After
the "Substation" was closed, Alex played as a DJ at the "Station
2000" and "Dynamite" radio stations. Today the name of DJ
Meshkov is associated with an epoch of the Russian dance culture
as well as with a significant list of night-clubs, including "Luch", "A-
Club", "Treasures Island" ("Ostrov Sokrovish"), "Hippopotamus",
"Chudo-Bar", "Park", "Virus", "Third Way" ("Trety Put'"), "Djusto", "Gerzen",
"KakBy", "Gramophone", "Budda-Bar", "Propaganda", "Metro",
"Territory", "Gorod", "MIX", as well as Kazantip, Instanziya, Forts &
Creamfields music festivals. From the year 1999 Alex creates music
under the name of "Nooncat", his personal musical project.
Nooncat's smart and neatly true tracks have been released on the
German labels: Salo, Trapez, Konvex-Konkav. Currently he works with
Triebstoff and Trenton Rec. companies. His best EP's have been
released in Cologne & Frankfurt: "Snowdust", "Pop Korn", "Under The
Moon, Under The Sun", "Down The Room", "Blue Screen". The
complete editions of "Down The Room" and "Blue Screen" EP's have
been sold out in a week after their releases. In 2004 the Moscow
"16 Tonns" club awarded Nooncat with a famous "Golden
Gargoyle" as the best dance project of the year. The live sets of
Nooncat have been performed in the clubs of Cologne, Leipzig,
Berlin, Skopje; live dj sets of DJ Meshkov could have been heard on
the dance floors in England, Macedonia, Germany, Austria, Poland
and all across Russia. At the present time Alex Meshkov is the
resident of the most popular among Moscow's bohemia "MIX" club
and of the Deepmix Moscow Radio; he often appears in "Shanti"
and "Gorod" night clubs. His DJ-ing style is rather wide and variable,
however always original: from minimal to tech-house and techno
with imperative romantic vibes of the 80's pop music and light
trance moods.
Roma Light is a DJ (ebaaaaaaat' but we did not know it!)
