Tongue salad is just one of the many
culinary treasures that await Edward
Snowden in Mother Russia (and our DJ
in Brighton Beach).
Programming of music from Russia and ex-USSR countries and regions during this program does not suggest we agree with the Russian government's policies on same-sex relationships (which of course we despise) and many, many, other issues. Snowden's ironic exile to a land of limited free speech is simply a good excuse to play a lot of ex-Soviet stuff that's been sitting around, and share some new discoveries from our most recent pilgrimage to Brighton Beach!
My current favorite shop for finding music from Russia and the former USSR in Brighton Beach is RBC Video, a large two-floor book, video and cd shop at 269 Brighton Beach Avenue. There are dollar bins outside the shop and on the ground floor, plus popular selections downstairs. If you walk up the spiral staircase and through the large Russian book selection to the back of the second floor, you'll find more esoteric Russian cds - indie rock, electronic, experimental, vintage pop, folk music, some regional sounds, etc. RBC's English language site for mail-order (or for a little research ahead of your visit) is http://bukinist.com/NewPop.asp.

...I think Ken played them & I was surprised how tight they were - thot they might be all political & no chops ...that's not 'Folk' tho' ...☆ing 'Mother Earth! Father Sky!' puts a little ☆ inside the big one: a metaphor for something??... |
