Rekevin's music combines melancholic downtempo and tender acid jazz, played exceptionally live and supported by emotional vocals of charming singer Ksenia.

The debut album "A Peacock" was released in January 2008, and the second album "Nulukatuk" was released in March 2009. Musicians produced both of albums independently of any labels and companies. The band loves analogue sound and used unique instruments for recordings: Fender Rhodes, Hammond Organ, Minimoog, Theremin, composers Ritm-2 and Aelita, piano, double-bass and others. In addition a string quartette participated in record of some tracks.

Rekevin played on the Stereoleto festival in Saint-Petersburg in June'08 with trip-hop legends Massive Attack. In September'08 they won the audience on Ukraine fest Jazz Koktebel, playing on one stage with Red Snapper. "European sound quality supported with strikingly beautiful music. It's hard to believe that they are from Moscow, but not from Bristol".
