Supersonic Future is the new project of Oleg Kostrow, Russia 's most infamous producer of electronic/lounge music, as well as a frequent composer for theater plays and TV commercials. “Maybe Yes!” is the first 12” single taken from the album “Leslie Family.” The album was recorded together with the musician Ilya Dmitriev, who provides drum programming, and a twenty-year-old vocalist Julia “Juicy.” According to Kostrow, Julia does not have any significant conventional vocal talents, but has a charismatic personality and a very dynamic presence on stage. These qualities have granted her a part in the project after she met Kostrow in a Moscow night club. The sound of Supersonic Future radically differs from Oleg's previous solo and collaborative projects with Oleg Gitarkin (Messer fur Frau Muller, Messer Chups), which were based on sample collages of 50's and 60's music along with a heavy presence of kitschy dialogue from the respective eras of Soviet film. This time the retro reference point is early 80's dance floor friendly post-punk and electro. Nonetheless Oleg's trademark playfulness is present in every track of the album; and however most tracks full of vintage synthesizers you may still discover occasional samples. Rumor has it that the catchy lyrics in the title track on the record were borrowed from a certain lady with an undisclosed profession. She claims that “maybe yes, maybe no, maybe sex, I don't know” is a little on-the-job poem she used to share with her co-workers.
