Far more than just a band, Mazmere is a living concept, one that continually evolves through shifting collaborations, personal histories, and a distinct approach to sound and storytelling. Originating from unexpected beginnings and shaped by deeply personal creative philosophies, the project has developed a noise-driven identity rooted in emotional intensity […]
The room is quiet, almost unaware of itself. A plain Moscow interior, the kind that carries no particular promise: walls washed in a pale tone of memory, a window with heavy light struggling through, and the hush of a day that does not expect to be remembered. Yet something begins […]
There are artists who compose, and then there are those who listen; not to melodies, but to the quiet, unlit spaces between them. Gert Stockmans stands firmly among the latter. Under the monikers Samatha and Mara, his music doesn’t simply unfold; it breathes, expands, contracts, and reveals itself with the […]
There are places where time seems to hold its breath. Not to stop, but to wait, quietly, insistently, until someone notices it. Photographer Alexander Strelkov has a precise sensitivity for these places. Trained among the historical interiors and architectural gravitas of Saint Petersburg, he knows how to approach old walls […]
There’s something fascinating about artists who don’t care if you get it. Jake Sinetos, under his Mazmere alias, has never sounded like someone trying to please anyone. He builds sound like some people build shelters: from scraps, memories, and whatever still hums after everything else breaks. ‘Run’, his latest release, […]

The record presents itself as a feminist reawakening of shidaiqu, that smoky 1920s […]
Weekends are supposed to be a time to breathe. To rest. To be. But for Ekaterina Iakiamseva, they’re something else entirely, a rupture in the fabric of the everyday, a crack where identity starts to bleed. In her new series, “Art is a Dangerous Place”, the world stands still just […]
Let me say, seeing Blink-182 live in Palm Desert was nothing short of electric. They opened with ‘The Rock Show‘, and the crowd went feral immediately, fists pumping, voices cracking, everyone screaming as if it were the first time they had ever heard these songs. The energy hit instantly, and […]
There’s nothing polished about Sandra Kosh’s work. No filters, no illusions, just light, skin, and the quiet noise of being alive. The Ukrainian photographer and visual artist, known as TorriPhoto, turns her camera toward herself like a mirror that doesn’t flatter. Her latest series feels raw and necessary, not made […]
