Black Russian

The chief architect of the euro-disco sound of the late 1970’s, Russian born producer Boris Midney built a state of the art recording studio in New York City, became one of the first producers to fully utilize 48 track recording, and proceeded to make symphonic disco music that completely revolutionized the dance music scene and paved the way for emerging styles of trance, hip-hop, drum & bass and house music. Presented here is a special expanded edition of Midney’s unfinished early 1980’s concept record about Alexander Pushkin entitled “Black Russian” which he finally released on CD in 1999, featuring bonus extended mixes of “Now Is The Time,” “Pushkin’s Theme” and “Every Kind Of People.” All selections have been newly remastered.
