Vsevolod Ermakov started in making music in 2007 and began by experimenting with a variety of different styles of drum & bass. Influenced by the likes of Exit Recordings and Spectrasoul, and working with his sometime collaborator Mr Sizef, it wasn’t long before he realised that he wanted to break the mould with a new soulful and deeper sound.

In 2009, Hospital Records released “The Future Sound Of Russia” featuring Unquote & Mr Sizef with their stunning track “Hours Have No Reverse Motion” and, in the same year, “Ugly Face Of War” by Unquote arrived on Alphacut. Since then, and still aged just 20, Seva has developed his solo work discovering deep dubstep along the way. He is creating fascinating and moving soundscapes whilst delicately shifting from 140 to 170bpm. Seva aims to create music that is like “hearing the sound of your soul”, none more so than his remix of Bop “Enjoy The Moment” on Med School and his subsequent single “Hide Your Tears Because We Are In Heaven” (2010).

Unquote also released his “Uncovered By The Dust” EP on Influenza earlier this year and is now, having signed exclusively to Med School, is working on his debut album which is due out in Autumn.
