“Far from Moscow is a project designed to aggregate and foster music over a very wide area. We have now decided to release regular compilations, dedicated to different genres. These digital publications should help to slow the rate at which young and impressive artists move across the horizon. The same albums should also help to nurture new audiences, both at home and… far from Moscow.
One might assume that a certain kneejerk maximalism has haunted Slavic or Baltic music in recent years. Released, with little warning, into the international arena, musicians from Eastern Europe have maybe felt obliged to chase countless styles or fashions. Maybe panic and pomp have developed as a result?
Our first album is designed to counter that faulty assumption. In other words, where one might expect anxiety and gaudy excess, we instead offer fourteen champions of elegance and confident restraint.”

“unfoundsound is stoked to present the label’s second artist album courtesy of alex medina of spain’s canary islands. you get nine tracks (67 minutes) of quirky tech-house, leftfield minimalism, stoned deep grooves and deep dancefloor killers. for djs and non-djs alike, highlife is refreshingly delicious and irresistibly useful. eat it up, and let the groovy taste stay in your mouth until the end of time.”

“yosoyunotrotu is a collaboration of two artists: quetzal contla |mexico| & krzysztof polaczenko |poland|
quetzal contla wanted to make a organic connection of ambient and live instruments and invited krzysztof to this project. idea was to make music with no boundaries – even this one drawed by the ocean. whole event was hard and tricky – evolving process of finding right sounds and space. each track is a trip to a different place, often it’s an improvisation in a truly recorded area. project was inspired by world
music and jazz – notes of abandoned places.”

“Talk, noise, voices, guitars. Beauty is everywhere. Your hand touches my hand. I ask you for the time. I’ll pick you up from school today. Thou headphones plugged into his ears. Everything is the same. All is well. I improvise on the doorstep, in the woods, on the field. Music comes out of the car radio, from the ICE seat, from the computer to the I-pod, the TV, mobile phones, the street, the room next door and my guitar. Fragments of my soul. Or yours? Random is a uniformly active principle. The butterfly principle. No principle.”
