Propaganda Records Boss Nastia & Her fabric Promo Mix (Source Fabric. com Blog)
Anastasia Topolskaia might hail from a small village in Ukraine but, as Nastia, she’s been known throughout the country for many years. Recently though, her name has been appearing on lineups all over the world – she’s got a touring schedule that you get tired just reading. She’s been hosting her own radio show on Kiss FM Ukraine since 2006 and after tying that into her record label, Propaganda, she’s been steadily climbing up the circuit, going from go-go dancer to international headliner.
Nastia: That’s a difficult question because I never even thought about it. On the way to where I am, I’ve just been doing what I feel and what I do. I had no plans. I just ‘go with the flow’.
Well, did your parents listen to any music? Did you have music at home?
Not so much. I didn’t grow up in an atmosphere of music. We didn’t even have a gramophone so I didn’t see any records around me, but I just had this feeling so no one could stop me.
When did your love of music really start then?
When I went to school. I can remember the moment exactly – it was the mid ’90s. I have two older sisters and they were already listening to some electronic music. I really liked it and so when at school I was performing for the parents – we had a little concert – I was already dancing to electronic music tracks. It was ‘Snap!’ or something like that. Then I used to listen to this music with my sisters all the time. I was quite addicted.
