Along with name dropping, we offer you The Proxy’s current top 10 playlist.

You are currently working on your album, where are you going with it?

I need to make couple new tracks and review some old ones. Hopefully I’ll finish it by the end of this Fall.

What else is going on in Proxy’s world right now?

I work on the album a lot. On remixes too. And I do lots of live shows abroad.

How did you hook up with Tiga?

I sent a link to my track to Tiga via Myspace. I got the answer next morning. He liked the track. We mailed each other for some time, then I tried to catch up with him in Moscow but we ended up meeting somewhere else in Europe. He turned out to be a really good guy.

What are you currently listening to besides club music?

I listen to Massive Attack – Mezzanine at the moment and some stuff from Rage Against The Machine.

How did you get into music?

I guess it’s a rather ordinary story for a guy of my age. I started playing at an ordinary club for ordinary people. Then I got bored of all this music and decided to try to do something myself. So that’s how it all has begun.

How is the scene in Moscow at the moment?

I don’t know.

How important is the internet for you and where do you see it going?

You can’t go without the Internet nowadays. I can find a lot of cool new tracks here and show some of my stuff as well. I think if it wasn’t for the Internet, there wouldn’t have been Proxy.

What was you best night out?

Mostly all parties were cool but the best one is still only in my mind.

How did you recover from it?

I hope I’ll find out soon.

What would be your dream team line up for a party?

I want to play with all my friends on one stage.
