History

Group "Electroclub" was active from 1985 till 1993. Musical director — Vladimir Dubovitskiy. Composer — David Tukhmanov. Group was founded and based on "Flames of Moscow" Oscar Feltsman with musician Irina Allegrova, who has musical experience.
In 1986 from Ludmila Senchina's group has come singer and composer Igor Talkov. He was the ideologist of the group and the author of musical concept. The main song he had popular success with was "Clean Pounds". In 1987 the Talkov's song "Three Letters" was awarded with "Golden tuning fork" and gained a phonograph record of their songs.
After their first phonograph record Igor Talkov left the group and Tukhmanov has decided to invite vocal leader of the "Forum" band. After this invitation group has decided to work on the new album in November, 1987. The quality of sound was worse than the first album and the phonogram record was a commercial failure. From the "Forum" band had invited Lazar Anastasiadi, Alexander Nazarov, Viktor Saltykov, Alexander Dronik.
Unexpectedly, singer Raisa Saed-Shakh which has come from Vladimir Migulya's "Monitor", had left the group. Tukhmanov had written Saed-Shakh's "Gusi-Gusi", "Malenkaya Zima", "Ballada o ledyanom dome" songs and the Talkov's "Telegrafistka" song but this songs weren't save. Dubovitskiy and Allegrova planned to drop Saed-Shakh from the group.
The basis of group were David Tukhmanov songs but also was songs of other authors especially Igor Talkov's and Igor Nikolaev's songs. The interest of the group had lost. Irina Allegrova worked with group till the middle of 1990 and then she has begun a solo career with Igor Nikolaev. The "Electroclub-2" phonograph record was released in 1989.
Viktor Saltykov has left the group and has returned to his first wife Irina Saltykova to St. Petersburg in 1990. Guitar player Vladimir Kulakovskiy has found "Kupe" band that year. With Nazarov the group has released one more album "White Panther" and several music videos but hasn't gain any popularity. The group was dissolved in 1993. After the Tukhmanov's departure Alexander Nazarov has become the group director and has recorded several albums. Nazarov with Viktor Saltykov and Vasiliy Savchenko have short reunion in 1999. The record of the "Zhizn-doroga" song was saved and was shown in «Песня-93».
The later years Nazarov has tried to reunite the group and invite woman singers but this did not happen.
