Ptakh_Jung (Ukrainian: Птах_Юнґ ) is a Ukrainian multi-genre instrumental duo formed by composer, keyboardist, and electronic music producer Anton Dehtiarov (nicknamed Ptakh) and composer and experimental guitarist Volodymyr Babushkin (nicknamed Jung). The group combines contemporary classical music with electronic, post-rock, ambient, and elements of grunge and noise.
The group has created and performed music for Ukrainian cinema.
They describe their music as post-classical electronic impressionism, or "electronic music [that] impresses the audience as deep as if it was a classical one."[1][2] Their music is atypical for Ukrainian music. The musicians have described their style as a "trip between neoclassicism and post-rock."[3]
In their performances, the duo collaborates with "VJ Reinish" (Svetlana Reinish), a visual artist and animator. They have also created music for the films of young Ukrainian film directors Nikon Romanchenko, Hanna Smoliy, Maksym Nakonechni, Marysia Nikitiuk, Svitlana Lishchynska, Iryna Tsilyk, and Alina Gorlova.
The duo played live at a performance by writer Oleksandr Mykhed, who read his story "Moroki" to their music. They also created music for the documentary film "Obiekt" by Polish director Paulina Skibinska, which won the special jury award at Sundance Film Festival. During the Festival of Silent Film and Contemporary Music, the duo presented a modern original soundtrack to the restored 1930's film Man and Monkey.[4]
Volodymyr Babushkin is also the guitarist of the band Pyryatyn.
