Andrei Zakharov

Andrei Zakharov is the creative force behind An-2 and Amberflame.  Residing in St. Petersburg, a city often referred to as the Northern Capital of Russia, he harbors a distinctly provincial persona and possesses a grounded, realist perspective.

 

As it is motorsport that consists of fixing the car and racing it – he shares his time between audio geek soldering adventures and making music. He believes that if you don’t know how to solder, your relationship with music is strictly platonic.

 

The famous Futurama episode where Bender reads a robot’s adult magazine consisting entirely of schematics is, in his opinion, the funniest sh*t in the world.

 

Andrei doesn't drink alcohol and doesn't smoke (without a proper company) and although Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (the great Russian classic writer) once said: "If someone doesn't drink or smoke, it may make you think that he's simply a scoundrel," Andrei hopes that it isn't something about him...

 

He’s also the one who founded Theomatic Records.
