F.R.U.I.T.S.

F.R.U.I.T.S. are a Moscow based cult duo comprising Alexei Borisov and Pavel Jagun. The duo was formed in 1992 to combine different directions of experimental music, such as abstract electronica, noise, rhythmical, minimalism, micro and macro sounds and waves, and free improvised voices.

Their release "Forbidden Beat" (from their latest album "Laton") has been said by some to represent F.R.U.I.T.S. at the peak of their creativity, with a combination of a bass-heavy danceable electro, drum 'n' noise, futuristic soundcapes, dark voice work outs and absurd humour refraining.
