Ovod

OVOD is a solo project of Ivan Lavrov from St. Petersburg. The music contains the recording of analog synthesizers and guitars, passed through various hardware effects, field recordings and the manipulation of his own created samples. Most of the parties were recorded on the first take, which gives them natural sound and refers to the naive art and non-perfectionism. In the age of computer technologies and mass media imposed standards of audio albums, OVOD is trying to prevent your its recordings from overproducing, trying as much as possible to protect the tracks from computer processing and self-playing instruments, as well as from excessive using of compressors and limiters. The main sources of inspiration were reading the book and severe wet weather of St. Petersburg, the feeling and mood of evenings spent for writing music, classical music and rock of the seventies. The transition to electronic experimental music occurred in 2014 after many years spent on classical works playing on the piano, hard rock guitar playing as well as Latin and instrumental music.
