A.k.a. Nick Zavriev (Ник Завриев)

Nick Zavriev, better known by the name Ambidextrous, can be easily considered a veteran of Russian electronic music, having had almost half a dozen releases (including solo and group work) and participated in numerous club and festival gigs. At the start of his career, Nick preferred making IDM, appearing on various European labels, but lately has been into experimenting with dance music. Possessing encyclopedic electronic knowledge, he is able to combine the style and sound of several epochs. Ambidextrous (from Latin: "ambi" - two, both; "dextrous" - right) means "a person who can use his both hands". In accordance to his name, Nick manages to do several activities at once: give lectures to students, write for musical journals, promote indie music with friends and colleagues from the promo group Avant, organize parties with Rave Diggers formation and have three more music projects at his side: ethno-trip-hop band Jermook, psychodelic downtempo band Dream Mechanics and guitar ambient band Light Under Water.
