1. Cheese and Hershey’s syrup
Of course not together, but separately. I can’t imagine eating when there’s no cheese – I’ve loved cheese since I was a child. I’d rather not have anything in the refrigerator but have cheese. As far as Hershey’s – it’s a great thing, everything becomes better with it. And the main thing is that it tastes just as good in Moscow, as it does in London, or Santiago.

2. ??????

2. My car
I love my car, it’s a Jeep Wrangler nicknamed “Brilliant Green” because it’s green. It’s my friend, comrade, brother, jacket, umbrella, and boom-box. I often try out new tracks while driving it.

3. ????? ?????

3. Oscar Wilde
My favorite book is “The Picture of Dorian Gray”, though I think that no movie has been able to express all the main thoughts and ideas that come up while reading it. But that’s the classic argument: what is better – the movie or the book.

4. ????

4. Sneakers
I think that everyone who puts on dress-shoes subconsciously wants to wear sneakers. That can be definitely said about me.

5. ??????

5. Music
Music, give me music, and I will be dancing! Music, possibly, takes up 80% of my life. - http://societeperrier.com

Bio

For the first year of their existence the Moscow band Beat-Off-Silence* made great progress. Not every band plays its first concert during a live television broadcast. Two months later, Beat-Off-Silence presented a single to an audience in the most unexpected place: on a heading plane. Further on the band held solo concerts and took part at several fashionable festivals. As a result of hard work in the studio the group has recorded its first album at its own sound studio within a year.

Beat-Off-Silence *, a band best placed in the genre of electro/synth /brit-pop. Mixing musical styles, in search of a new sound and fascinating arrangements, make the band one of the most relevant on the Russian national music scene.
Beat-Off-Silence was founded in early 2010. The band features a bold experimental sound with special accents on the new-wave style of the 1980’s and 90’s. The rich voice of Misha Ostrovsky harmonizes perfectly with the live drum beats of Mike Cherny, combined with the electronic Moog synthesizers of Igor Sviridov and the masterful guitar playing of Rodion Kravklya. It's hard to believe that the incredibly beautiful sounds of a vintage Fender Mustang guitar have been created with the most unusual items: a sports simulator “power-ball,” a toothbrush, a mobile phone, and a pocket-radio. This adds fascinating elements to every performance by the band. Video installations are provided VJ Brain, one of the best Moscow VJ’s.
The first concert took place on December 24, 2010 and was aired live on the TV Channel “Rain.” The band performed a full set on the program, “Live Show.”
Performing the single “I’m fine” during the flight from Moscow to Krasnodar on February 23, 2010 was a unique event for the musicians. Beat-Off-Silence was the first band in the history of Russian civil aviation to a concert on board a passenger aircraft.
On March 30, 2010, the single "I'm fine" gained rotation on Moscow radio NEXT FM (105.2 FM).
