...and travels in it more than 5700 miles all across Russia. All the while he records the locals he meets or composes electronic music in his compartment. The name of the man is William Rezé a.k.a. Thylacine. The name of the train that will give the resulting album of electronic music its name, is Transsiberian.
I got rid of everything that felt too techno and 'clubby', such as the Moskva track, which I imagine imitates a night out in the capital's nightclubs. Clearly, I was more interested in the ambient parts of the music here, plus the snatches of field recordings of locals Thylacine recorded along the way. The genre is electronica, but especially in this version, you can also file this under (the admittedly sketchy title) world music.
Transsiberian hopefully invites you to a short journey through the Russian backwoods - the original trip from Moscow to Vladivostcock takes six days nowadays - and admire some of its scenery in your mind and some of its sound in your ears...
