Bio
MetaQuorum is a new project by Dmitry Ermakov, a Russian-born British composer/keyboard player.
Ermakov was trained in classical music and jazz. Before immigrating to the UK, he gigged and recorded with various musicians in the Soviet/Russian underground scene, as well as composing for Lenfilm cinema studios and the clown troupe Licedei.
MetaQuorum’s forthcoming debut album, Midnight Sun, (produced and mixed at Loft Music Studios, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK), is a journey through progressive fusion, an organic blend of jazz, funk, rock, reggae, baroque, electronica and more, with a cool, foot-tapping swing which makes the room buzz. The complex polyphony, riffs, quirky piano and synth solos, upbeat drums and occasional roaring guitar reflect Ermakov’s joie de vivre as well as his influences, which include: Miles Davies, Marcus Miller, George Duke, Herbie Hancock, Oscar Peterson, Weather Report, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel, Kraftwerk, Yello, King Crimson, Chicago, Vivaldi, Frescobaldi, Mozart and Rachmaninoff.
