Sveta Ben and Galya Chikiss are two legendary figures in the modern musical history of Belarus. Sveta is known to many not only for her solo works, but also as the leader of the “Silver Wedding” cabaret band, actress, theater director and poet. Galya Chikis can be called a legend of electronic music; in this genre she acted as a producer, singer, and composer. She has recorded an impressive amount of different music from ghostly ascetic electronics, as on the album “New Season” and synthesizer minimalist pop music to full-blooded pop music with its own oddities, groove and drama.
Their joint work began with the song “Mirrorball”, and they stopped by our creative showroom to perform it*.
