GAYAZOV$ BROTHER$ serve up irresistible Russian pop tracks that draw heavily on deep house, dance and rap, alternating deep-voiced verses with characteristic nasal tones. Their warm melodicism and accessible lyrics are interwoven with R&B, dancehall and Middle Eastern touches which give their numbers an alluring, youthful melancholy. But the siblings—producer Ilyas and main songwriter Timur Gayazov—contrast the sombre vibes with a refreshing humour in their performances. And they never fail to get the party started.
