Katya Chekhova

2000s ravers and nightclub patrons are familiar with the name of Katya Chekhova. In fact, this is not at all the name of the girl whose vocals are heard against the background of the electronic sound of dance compositions. Chekhov is a whole team and a musical project that has become a pioneer in Russian club music.

The Katya Chekhova project appeared on the Russian music scene in 2005. With the light hand of producer Sergei Pimenov, the debut track "I am a robot" gets into the rotation of the country's dance radio stations.

In addition to the permanent producer Sergei Pimenov, Nikolai Lebedev, a music producer, and Roman Galushkin, a sound producer, became members of the group working on the development of the label. Nikolay Lebedev is the author of the released hits and songs of the project.

Some listeners mistakenly believed that Katya Chekhova was the performer's first and last name. As the inspiration and creators of the label explained, it is difficult to call it even a pseudonym. Katya Chekhova is the name of a separate project of electronic music, the whole team is assembled.

The first soloist of the project was Ekaterina Gubenko (after marriage, the girl changed her last name to Medvedev). The vocalist worked with the band members on the previous project "Option K", which did not gain much success with the audience. A girl was born in Taganrog on July 24, 1984. The soloist's musical career also began there.

The singer worked in tandem with the team for exactly one year. The first wildly popular, concerts and tours in Russia fell on the period of the soloist's stay in the collective. In March 2006, Gubenko leaves the project. As stated in the press, the incident was caused by disagreements between the singer and the producers.

The girl decides to continue her career on her own under the pseudonym Katya First. Ekaterina's own project is becoming recognizable among electronic music lovers. In 2009, the vocalist records an album, the songs are included in the playlists of club radio stations.

During the absence of the vocalist, the project "Katya Chekhova" is forced to suspend work for some time. The producers held auditions for the role of the new participant, and the choice fell in favor of Elena Khryashcheva.

In the world of pop music, the young singer distinguished herself by her work in the Bikini group. The girl studied music since childhood. After graduating from music school, violin class, she continued her vocals and sang in the choir. It was there in 2003 that the girl was noticed by the producers of "Bikini". Having brilliantly started in the vastness of popular music, the group existed only until 2005. In connection with the bankruptcy of the main producer, the team ceased to exist.

Lena met Katya Chekhova's project team on her creative path and took the place of the vocalist. The girl had a wonderful voice and undeniable talent. Fans of the project still fondly remember Elena's participation in the team.

However, in December 2008, the producers decide to close the music project. As Elena Khryascheva recalled, this decision was sad news for her. After the collapse of the group, Khryascheva did not appear on stage.

But the life of the project did not stop there. In 2011, the triumphant revival and return of the soloist Ekaterina Gubenko takes place. It is she who remains the face of the team at the present time.

Katya Chekhova's project can be safely called the pioneer of Russian electronic club music. Before the appearance of the collective, there were no such popular groups in a similar genre in Russian show business.

Initially, the producers supported the myth that the undisputed hits of the clubs "I Am Robot" and "Wings" were recorded with artificial vocals. The lyrics were allegedly performed on a synthesizer. The legend soon had to be debunked. But, as Ekaterina Gubenko recalls in an interview, for a long time her face remained unknown to the public and listeners.

The project makes it clear that Katya Chekhova is not a soloist, not a specific personality of the performer, but a team, a style of music. Having blown up the dance floors of the clubs in 2005, Katya Chekhova released the first album "I am a robot". Only legal copies of the disc were sold 250 thousand copies, which is a record high for an aspiring musical group.

For the first time in the Russian music community, the band's producers use the label's online promotion channels. If earlier attention was paid to the official sale of discs, then Katya Chekhova launches a system of free downloads of albums. The first songs available for download by listeners were “Version 1.0” and “By Wire” recorded in 2008.

In addition, the participants and the soloist of the project begin direct communication with fans on the official YouTube channel. The singer shares her news and thoughts on the LiveJournal blog.

Katya Chekhova's new albums are released in the public domain, posted on the Internet. Producers have opened and launched voluntary encouragement by listeners and users who downloaded popular tracks. In parallel with work on new albums, the team is shooting clips. The video for the song "I'm Not With You" gets into rotation on MTV in 2007.

In total, until 2008, through the fruitful works of the participants, three albums were recorded. House and drum & bass compositions with beautiful female vocals are thundering in the clubs of the country. Perhaps, few of the musicians of the 2000s could boast of so many remixed versions of compositions recorded by DJs.

The same years were marked by the all-Russian concert work of the participants. The team was at the peak of its popularity. However, at the end of 2008, the producers came to the conclusion that it was time to close the group. The album with the self-explanatory title "The Last Album" brought the finish line.

Fortunately, he really did not become the last one. 2011 was marked by the resumption of the work of the old team and the release of the first single "Dreaming".

In 2018, the project will release a new album in the usual electronic style with the enchanting vocals of the soloist Ekaterina Gubenko (now Medvedeva). The compositions are distributed on the website of the project. Some of the songs recorded by the collective in the early and mid-2000s are still relevant and are used by DJs to record remixes.

So, the version of the composition "I don't need much", recorded at the beginning of the existence of the collective, got into the rotation of dance stations. Katya Chekhova, returning to the stage, resumes concerts in the cities of Russia. Grateful fans invariably leave rave warm reviews on social media pages.

The vocalist and the members remain faithful to the tradition of communicating with fans on VKontakte, on the YouTube hosting channel, as well as on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The coverage of the Internet audience for the electronic project is very wide.

As for the soloist, Ekaterina Medvedeva, in addition to resuming her career and returning to the stage, is building a happy family life. On the girl's page on Instagram, photos appear with her family, with her beloved husband. And since 2015, Catherine has become the mother of a wonderful and charming daughter, Vera.
