In words by Others:

Dasha Rush is a sound artist who spends her time drifting around the globe, while constructing a rather wide assortment of electronic music and arts projects. Among releases on labels like Sonic Groove and Raster Noton, and collaborations with few others, still majority of her work is released on her own imprint Fullpanda records and more experimental sub-label Hunger to Create.

 The beginnings of her musical activity at very young age, had took place in her mother land- Russia. It progresses organically while her move to France, developing as electronic music composer , producer and dj she steps into experimentation with the diverse forms of Arts by creating collaborating with dancers, painters.

Rush sees the genre as a starting place, not a destination. And brings up a mixture of rather rare electronic experimentation's more akin to the brief movement of underground music the roots of such partially go back to the early 20th century and rise to significant Art Movements to this day.


Her last album on Raster-Noton, Sleepstep, could be a metaphor for her musical work: "These 16 pieces are transmissions from that state between sleep and wakefulness," said Tony Naylor, a reflection of the in- between zones her music often inhabits. Dubby but intense, brutal but tender, foggy yet clear—Sleepstep was a wonderful mass of contradictions. Not being one thing or the other is vitally important to Rush, which goes hand-in-hand with her strong independent streak.


Rush likes to push and expand the boundaries of the contemporary music to the limit, still encourages experimentation with various musical (and non-musical) forms and assembling to a thoughtful composition into multidisciplinary projects.


To sum up, Dasha is a respected and well-traveled Live performer, electronic music composer , sound artist and Dj, her work is equally focused on music and sound ranging from the dance floor to the most experimental and interdisciplinary projects and even sometimes away from the music itself as primary focus.


In her strange and twisted world the machines are the protagonists of a Neo-romanticism, weaved with human dreams.
