Ilia Belorukov – modular synthesizer

Ilia Belorukov and Lauri Hyvärinen met in 2012 at a jam session in Helsinki, a starting point for their long-term friendship and work. Together they played with a variety of musicians before starting their duo. Beginning with free improvisation traditions and continuing with quiet contemporary compositions, the musicians now approach their music from a more compositional point of view, carefully choosing each sound they produce. Their range of sounds is wide, ranging from the surfaces of acoustic instruments such as saxophone or guitar to feedback in effect pedals chain or software/hardware modular synthesizer. The duo has released several albums on labels such as Hemisphäre no kukyo (AU), Pan Y Rosas Discos (USA), Attenuation Circuit (DE), Paahtimo Sounds (FI), Rypistellyt Levyt (FI) and Spina!Rec (RU). Ilia and Lauri did their first major tour in November 2017 in the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia and France after several shorter stints in Finland, Russia and the Baltic States. In 2018 the duo played at Noise & Fury 17 Festival in Moscow. In February 2019 they toured in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic and Germany.
