I've only heard ReLoad, Russian Trance and their remix of Tillman Urhmacher's "On the Run". Decent enough, but none of them are that special.

You have to hear Artemiev's original version though, it's bloody brilliant!!!Imagine the melody of Ressurection played by a fat 70s spacey moog, it really gave me goosebumbs when i first heard it guys!PPK's "tonal-lead-line" it's very cheap in my opinion...

Wow, knowing that they did not come up with that melody really lowers my respect for them.

they don't exist anymore, Pimenov & Polyakov stopped the ppk project like two years ago. ResuRection is good when drunk, the Trailor Trash remix is immense tho. uhhm, yeah, I Need A Rhythm is immense aswell, and so was their remix of Marina Hlebnikova's Pechal Moya.

well..of course ppk is not the best example of trance music, but..I was 12 in 99 and computer-lover (think about assembly).

Resurection and Sandstorm were tracks, why I started to search much more melodic stuff from the net..: hands up in the air stuff

Honestly, aside from the fact it was whored to death, did no one else find that bloody uber high sine wave lead bloody annoying?

Listening to this song on headphones is almost unbearable for me. It's not so bad on speakers though.

Although PPK were the first Russian trance project to make such a breakthrought and technically I should be proud of that because they represented my country in the EDM world, I seriously think that their music is pure shit.

The melody, as some have already said, was stolen. PPK is two people - Sergey Pimenov & Alexandr Polyakov. They went separate ways in I think 2003.

I can't stand Pimenov because of that one hit Resurruction he still thinks he is the shit. You can easily tell that by just reading his blog on livejournal (if you know Russian). Now he is trying to push his new "proteges" into the Russian pop scene.

Polyakov is a different story. As of now, he is helping young trance producers of Russia. Who knows where would Vadim Zhukov and many others be right now if it wasn't for him. He also runs iRecords label.

Melodica - Tornado (PPK Remix)Love this track. So many elements to it from beginning to end. Breakdown sounds very much like the original version and is opera sounding.
Liquinoid - substance (PPK Remix) I like this one more. well job done on the brekdown by adding effects and a simple breaks melody. Solid track
