FROM.UZ interview for Prog Magazine
How did the band determine that it wanted to make “progressive music,” and how is “prog” defined in Uzbekistan?
Albert Khalmurzaev: it was nobody’s decision to play prog, it was just interesting to try it. It is up to critics to define the style, the auditory will choose the music they like, and we play music interesting for us. It should be touchy, first of all. So as all of us who started listen to the music of the same range – art rock, progressive rock, fusion – that is the way we choose the type music to play. The choice depended on the music we listened to. Prog rock in Uzbekistan – if I may say, we have rock but it cannot be subdivided into different manners. We have no school here.
