In 2019, the Adventures of Electronics group turned 20 years old. The feature of the band is that there are no tracks of their own composition in the repertoire of musicians. They perform cover versions of compositions from Soviet children's films, cartoons and top tracks of past centuries.
The band's vocalist Andrey Shabaev admits that he and the guys choose the songs for "rehashing" in an unpretentious way - they just sing what they like.
Group "Adventures of electronics" - how did it all begin?
The team first became known in 1999. The musicians, who already had experience of being on stage, decided to join forces and create something unique.
Part of the new team were: Konstantin Savelievskikh, Andrey Shabaev and Dmitry Spirin. Young and talented guys soon presented their debut track "Songs of Living Toys", which the music lovers really liked. This composition was included in the collection "Type of punks and all that."
At the end of 1999, Konstantin considered this project a "failure". The young man decided to leave the group, so he was replaced by Alexander Fukovsky and Sergei Prokofiev. But this is not the only lineup change. During the existence of the group, the composition changed about 5 times.
In the mid-2000s, the Adventures of Electronics team, in addition to veterans Shabaev and Prokofiev, included Oleg Ivanenko and Daria Davydova. All three, except for Sergey, were responsible for vocals, in addition, they played musical instruments.
Music and creative way of the group "Adventures of electronics"
In the early 2000s, the musicians presented their debut album Beautiful Far Away to fans. The first album included 13 tracks. All compositions were known to children in the 1990s. What are the songs worth: “Tired toys are sleeping”, “33 cows”, “Winged swing”, “From a smile”. In one of his interviews, Shabaev said:
“The guys and I initially wanted to create not just cover versions of our favorite tracks. Our plans are to reproduce the sound of certain songs the way we remember them in childhood…”.
After the presentation of the debut album, the musicians disappeared for three years. This silence can be called justified, since the Adventures of Electronics group has prepared a second album for fans.
The second collection was called "Earth in the Porthole" with hits from the Soviet stage and Soviet rock. The album was favorably received by fans, but music critics decided that the Adventures of Electronics group had completely departed from the motives of the original songs.
After the presentation of the second collection, the band's discography began to rapidly replenish with albums. The musicians presented the records: “Our childhood has passed ...”, “Come on, girls!”, “Let's call each other!”, “Happy New Year!”, “Dreams come true” and “Forest deer. b-side. In addition, the musicians presented to music lovers two tributes to Viktor Tsoi and "NAIV".
