Mishka w/ Ivan Dorn

Its difficult to imagine the post-soviet pop scene without the controversial story of Ivan Dorn - MTV European Music Awards winner, The Voice and X-Factor coach he is a true pop star for the modern age, an artist with a rather unique biography. Born in Russia, raised in Ukraine, at the age of 29 he went from mainstream pop singer to one of the most daring innovators in the Ukrainian and Russian music scene. His unique blend of 90s house, pop, nu-disco, funk and free jazz, came as a breath of fresh air to the suffocated Eastern Europe pop scene. Dorn brought a much needed freshness and novelty to post-soviet pop scene with his mixture of modern synth pop and IDM spiced with all kinds of worldly beats and rhythms. If there is one thing we’ve learned about Ivan over the years, is that if you think you have him all figured out, you are probably already one step behind.
