Biography
Mooncake is a Russian instrumental and post-rock band founded in Moscow early 2006. The main idea of the band’s music is to open the door to infinite space and cosmos in any everyday thing.
Mooncake is sometimes compared to Pink Floyd or Mogwai but the band has made a name for itself having developed its own style and became quiet popular among connoisseurs of genre both home and abroad. Catchy melodies, atmosphere, the ideal balance between rapture and grief: all this has always been Mooncake’s distinctive feature.
