CHRONOS AKA NICK KLIMENKO: AMPLIFYING MOSCOW AMBIENT SCENE. INTERVIEW WITH ATHENA ETANA
How would you define Chronos today?
Its the15th years anniversary in this year for Chronos Music.
After hundreds of concerts around the world, collaborations
with lots of talented producers in different genres & jams with great musicians – for me, “Chronos” is way more than a musical project.
Its a life experience, a style of living & a great opportunity to
share emotions, knowledge & my philosophy to the people.
Do you think you have reached your goal on awakening
consciousness through music for your listeners and
fans?
I believe its far more to open, to share in the future and this is endless.
We are living in the world of fast changes – in consciousness,
technology, our habits and our vision – so in every moment there are new ideas and an new opportunity, also new instruments to share this ideas.
And its a goal – to shift usual perception.
Are you aware of the shift in consciousness around
you? Are the people in Moscow becoming more
spiritual?
Absolutely yes.
Now esoterica, spiritual way, vegetarian & vegan movements
are very strong around the world and especially in Russia.
Its tuning, there are still lots of “Vodka-Pelmeni” style and
pseudo-teaches around. But i feel global shift, its coming.
Have you experienced healing miracles while
performing your music?
I see people tears while i'm playing and tears with hugs after.
Sometimes people are writing to me, explaining their experiences in lots of ways through, social media and other resources – and its a big gift to an artist to feel that, to be part of great moments in human life.
Do you feel connected to Chronos the Ancient Greek
God of time, ruin and creation, and what is the story
behind the moniker?
I heard lots of stories that this Greek Guy was not that good
& ate his children on breakfast :(
For me Chronos – is an aspect of time – invisible moving engine & symbol of our evolution.
I learned ancient Greek language in university as well as Latin.
You can find lot of words in names of tracks on this ancient languages in my creativity and vast projects.
You have many European fans, what you want to say to
them?
Greetz!
Wazzup,Guys? :)
Where does Nick get’s his inspiration and how that
inspires Chronos?
Every single Chronos track based on real story of Nick's life.
You can name any of my tracks – and i will give you a story
which inspire me on its creation.
Its not just sitting in studio with your brain while trying to find beautiful words for what you’ve just done.
Its done after a life event, after meeting a person, travelling or experiencing something.
What do you think of the chill out/ambient and even
psybient scenes now?
Its still small, underground, still a sub-area for main floor,
but its growing.
Thanks for such a festivals like Samsara, Sun Spirit.
Thanks for such a labels as Altar, Cosmic-leaf, Mystic Sound, Sirius Owl Records and all others…
You are making our scene bigger & better.
