Check this out, the Soviets made electronic music in the 1980s. Not unexpected, even though the art and culture was state controlled there was still experimentation. But it's just interesting that with the wonders of the Internet you can find stuff like this.




Back in the 1970s, Soviet artists had tried out jazz-funk with pretty interesting results:


Where has this been all my life!? I love it!
 
There was a great East German band called Plattform, female fronted heavy metal (sung in German which makes it rather distinct) who never released anything but eventually this collection of their material was released. It's pretty good stuff, and yet another case of "if they were on the other side of the Iron Curtain they might've been more known". But then again, it isn't like there's female fronted heavy metal bands from the 80s from West Germany who are sadly unheard of...
I heard about such teams. But Marcus played extreme metal! And this is a rarity.
 
One of my acquaintances said: "The Quartet Accord" (like the "Soviet Song") worked for the future, they created the foundation of the culture of the communist society, which in the first half of the 1960s was not yet in. Remember, in the novel " Eden "Stanislav Lem described a plant that produces goods that will not be needed by the current generation of the people of Eden, but to those who will replace them, but the plans have changed, the" new generation "has not appeared, and the plant is running idle, and so it was with the" The song came from Moscow, "and" And you love her, "and with" The girls are dancing on the deck "In general, after the abolition of the building of communism in 1967, such musical bands were unclaimed and pushed to the side of the Soviet stage, they were quite original (they did not copy the Western stage, did not repeat the numbers of Stalin's concerts) and operated with well-designed dramatic roles, but at some point were anachronistic. "
And what do you think about these collectives? -
