Today’s Monday post features a producer out of Russia named PROFF. Also known as Vladimir Yershov, he holds the record as the first Russian producer signed to Anjunadeep. Having grown up with a father as a musician, Vladimir found that he had musical talents at a very young age – playing various instruments. By the age of 10, he was introduced to his first CD of electronic music and was immediately intrigued. By 2005, his career launch into electronic dance had began. Since that time, PROFF has found support from the likes of Above & Beyond, Armin Van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk, Sander Kleinenberg and Marcus Schossow to name a few.
In February of this year, PROFF will release two tracks “Intensify” and “Freak Control” onto Intricate Records. “Intensify” is a great track with a true progressive sound that easily captures an ear. The song builds up from a casual bassline until it them calms down to a crescendo – waiting to build back up. It’s at this time to we see the significance behind it’s title “Intensify”. Give it a spin, you’ll see what mean.
