Thanks to success PPK, in Russia there were tens young interesting musicians which have believed that there is nothing impossible. - art is capable to punch walls-.

 

Sergey Pimenov and Alexander Polyakov have got acquainted in 1993 in Alexander Polyakov studio. It is possible to tell safely what exactly this meeting has decided the future destiny of the Russian electronic scene.

 

Sergey Pimenov at that point in time was already enough known DJ.Was the participant and the initiator of many actions collecting about 10000 people. Practically the first DJ in the south of Russia, started to do own radio the projects devoted to electronic music: "TechnoHouseCompilation", ”Mega Dance”, "PiratRadioCanNotSleepFm".

 

Alexander Polyakov – a professional sound-producer and the musician. One of the first in the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don has started to experiment an electronic sound, having connected a synthesizer on midi c the computer. In 1993 to year has created the professional studio first in Rostov-on-Don for record of electronic music - "USTAS". In 1997 has begun work in studio of jazz musical school-centre of K.Nazaretov, Rostov-on-Don.

 

In spite of the fact that musicians were familiar for a long time, but the concept of own project was generated only by the end 1997 years. And in the beginning of 1998 the project has been created and has received name PPK. Besides Pimenov and Polyakov into structure PPK has entered also DJ Korzh. Owing to Roma Korzh some circumstances has left the project even before release of the first album "Feel Insomnia!!!", making conclusive loud local success in the south of Russia. From the beginning of 1999 PPK start to be a producer of the vocalist of Sveta. The debut album of Sveta "LOVE" which also becomes megapopular became result of this work.

Being engaged in own advancement, PPK do not forget and about young musicians Rostov region.17 July, 1999 producers PPK represent the collection "Future Sounds of Rostov"/part1/.

Also before departure has been let out at once three collections, representing young musicians - 21 centuries; 21 centuries 2; the Future sounds of Rostov 2.

 

Despite obvious successes any radio station, a record-company or mass media in Russia has not stated special interest that did PPK at that time... As means for advancement of the creativity musicians have chosen the Internet, as the most democratic and fast-growing information resource. In the end of 1998 the site http://www.ppk.ru has been created. In the beginning of 1999 PPK have laid out the first tracks on a site http://www.mp3.com - http://www.mp3.com/ppk. Practically at once there was a considerable quantity of responses from foreign listeners, mass media and radio stations worldwide. It has given to musicians new forces and energy. Then for the first time foreign labels speak about occurrence of special style - Russian Trance.


Successes PPK in the Internet are simply stunning. In December, 1999 the track of "21 Centuries" for the first time has got on tops of general chart MP3.COM (the largest world musical resource containing music more of 100 000 artists), having reached 2 places.

The Worldnet the Internet has allowed musicians to inform the creativity to a maximum quantity of people. More than 2 500 000 (two and a half one million:) downloadings of songs from an official site for a year!

 

In 2001 the known European musician and producer Paul Oakenfold starts to play the sets music PPK. In the different ends of a planet plays legendary and great "Resurection". In the summer of 2001 Oakenfold there comes to Moscow on festival Intervention 01.


Before the performance, on June, 29th, Paul Oakenfold gives a press conference in which frameworks defines position about the Russian music, in particular to music PPK. "It would be fair to tell that here music develops in Russia, I know group under name "PPK", and at them very charming sound, very much it is pleasant to me and in general it is pleasant that in this country there are people who can really bring the considerable contribution to musical culture ". During performance in Bitter Pol Oakenfold Moscow Park in 2001 for the first time has met with PPK and has received a copy of Revival which he has played in the set, having got of deafening support 20 of thousand crowd. It was the hit which it was impossible to doubt. He knew that the track should be let out on its own company Perfecto while someone has not made it before it.

After a week, on November, 3rd a plate "Resurrection" takes the third place National British the Single of the Charts based on real sales. Thus "Resurrection"  becomes successful release Perfecto records in 2001.

 

The composition "Resurrection" is a processing of a magnificent melody of Eduard Nikolaevich Artemyev - the chairman of Association of Electronic Musicians of Russia. The melody to a film "Sibiriada" has been awarded a prize the Golden Palm of the Cannes Festival as the best music to a film in 1979, and today became the present electronic hymn of all progressive Russian youth.

The international success of a track - from Greece to Australia - has allowed PPK  to receive considerable and pleasant success and in Russia also.
