Anton Igumnov Biography

Lyubava Zaitseva on April 26 in the main meme of the last weeks - dancing porters of Ghana coffins, on the video with which the most simple and terribly adhesive dance music is imposed. We found her author and talked with him. For the first time about the dancing porters of the coffins from Ghana, they spoke in the middle of x. In this African country, it is customary to bury the dead with dancing and songs, for which they hire a group of people in front -line form and black glasses.

But this story turned into a meme only at the beginning of the year. At the climax, the picture of Fale is replaced by the dancing porters of the coffins. After this video, it began to spread along the social network and beyond - memes with tombs can be found on Instagram, Twitter and on VKontakte. In fact, the meme is similar to another popular joke Directed by Robert B. Weide-both of these trends beat joy and fun after someone's failure.

The track “Astronomia” from the meme was written by musician Anton Igumnov from the Rostov region back in the year. It is recorded under the pseudonym Tony Igy. We asked him to tell about the song, and about the popularity that suddenly fell on him. Anton Igumnov Tony Igy I started writing music in high school. I make tracks in a variety of styles-Chillout, Disco, Funk, House and so on, but I became the most popular thanks to electronics and Edm.

In general, I love electronic music of the x and xs. Of the modern artists, I can’t single out anyone for myself and I listen to them mainly in order to understand which sound is relevant today. The song "Astronomia" has an official video. And there are also strange dances to music I write in FL Studio. It takes a different time for every melody-to write a sketch or demo, it can go from an hour to a whole day.

Then I can take the track for months until I achieve the sound I need. Sometimes the track can go for revision, and I can do again in a year and a few years. If there are no specific orders, I write music by my mood. I wrote the track "Astronomia" in FL Studio 4 in about a couple of months. It was in the year. He even then became popular in Russia and began to spread over a network called “Hit Summer”.

All listened to him from mobile phones. I was then pleasantly surprised. And, imagine, they scored their phones with my tracks. They put to listen to others and did not know that it was actually my music. Sometimes, leaving the house, I listened from the windows of the neighboring house my tracks. It was funny, because no one suspected that the author of this melody was sitting a meter from them.

In the year, “Astronomia” was buried by Iggy Azalea in her track “My World”, and there were more thousands of people who wanted to take their music to my track.

The track of IGGI of Azalia, where the Astronomia turned into a fashionable trap that the track flew up again, I learned in a very strange way. In Instagram directed, African teenagers began to write to me with the words that they have Astronomia a local hit. I was very surprised and at first I thought that the track just reached them late. I did not really attach any importance to this, because “Astronomia” in principle is often used in various memes - for example, in the year it was used in a video with Dmitry Brekotkin from the Ural dumplings.

Then I realized that, it turns out, the song was included in the video with dancing dark -skinned coffiners. I do not experience anything special about the adhesive men. I was not particularly surprised that my melody began to be used again in meme. I don’t know why this meme has become popular. I do not attach any importance to this and I am not looking for a reason for thinking about why it has become popular.

I do not track them, and I don’t have a loved one. Probably, there is only one cover that I like - there my song was buried from sounds made by animals. Of course, I earned on the popularity of Astronomia. How much - I will not say, we are not at Dudia. I began to earn on this track back. In fact, my music gives me enough money to not work. Probably, memes give me an audience who listens to my songs and feeds me.

Thanks to the meme about the Astronomia coffiners, she again burst into the top charts, which, of course, was reflected in my income. From the rest of my work, I advise you to listen to my last album “You Know My Name”. It differs in style from previous single and records. My favorite track from what I wrote is called “M. I advise him to listen to everyone.
