#151 | Igor Glushko (UA)
from Recorder.13 Hosted by Recorder.13
Before @igor_glushko became a prominent DJ in the local scene, he spent considerable time contributing to the Ukrainian capital’s club life in other ways. Whether acting as assistant editor of the country’s only electronic music magazine at the time or promoting and organizing his own events, Igor has been at the forefront of what has become one of the brightest and most prolific scenes in Eastern Europe. As a promoter and event organizer, Glushko has brought in such prominent names as Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, Mathew Jonson, Convextion, Peter Van Hoesen, Levon Vincent, Move D, Prosumer, and of course many more, who came to Ukraine for the first time only thanks to Glushko and his team. But it wasn’t until 2010 that Igor became an important player behind the decks himself. DJing aside, Igor is also known nowadays as being co-founder of @rhythm-buro, the essential techno initiative in Kyiv that brings the genre’s most forward thinking minds to various original locations across the city. Glushko is also credited as being head honcho of the recently established record label of the same name. Every few months Rhythm Büro attracts hundreds and thousands of visitors to their events that combine huge line-ups (featuring artists as diverse as Actress, @donato-dozzy, Ulwhednar, and @artefakt-official), original settings that range from film studios to forest locations, and visual arts. As an honored resident of Closer in Kyiv, Igor is one of a dozen local DJs who continue to shape, define and build Kyiv’s electronic music landscape ‘one step at a time. Stay Rave with #R13!
