Biography
Moa Pillar is the project of Fedor Pereverzev, a music producer, sound designer, and teacher from Moscow. His latest album Well-Balanced Rollback was released on the artist's own label ПИР (feast, pronounced "peer"), "Well-Balanced Rollback" is a heavyweight collection of minimalist mutant dance music.
He began his music career with organic beats and broken rhythmic patterns interplaying with wooden folkish sounds and neoclassical tones. Later, his sound evolved into grand and majestic experimental techno/bass - heavy monolithic rhythms, lush ethereal soundscapes, mesmerizing vocals, choir-like grandeur and spiritual calmness.
Albums such as Humanity and Hymns, both released on Full of Nothing, illustrate these sonic features, particularly the merge of intense high BPMs and the floating peace of ambient music. Fedor’s brilliant collab with Helm, paired with footage from Siberian towns and Altai Mountains, was one of the highlights of the Unsound Krakow 2016 festival, the dark and grainy ambience complementing the shots of run-down cities and wild nature very well. Another interesting project of Fedor’s has been the Bonfires and Stars documentary, where he was filmed going to the Caucasus to collaborate with local musicians.
