The group Artik and Asti, which has gained great popularity, its biography, the unusual composition of the group's soloists, the names and surnames of the participants are now of interest to many. And all the most interesting about the team can be found in the article.

The duets of a guy and a girl in music are a very successful move, especially if the male half of the team already has considerable experience, and the girl is very talented and very young. And of course, fans of such musical groups go crazy with the desire to find out more about their idols, to find out how and why they started a joint career, they were in a relationship, are going to create something bigger, or decided to focus exclusively on business.

Artik & Asti is an example of such a team. In this duet, youth and talent go hand in hand. The team's fame is impressive, it extends to the territory of its native Ukraine, and to Russia, and abroad. Each of the performers was known before the start of their joint activities. Today we will present brief information about them, although not only Artyom gained particular popularity.

Asti

06.24.1990 on the banks of the Dnieper, in the city of Cherkassy, \u200b\u200bAnna Dzyuba was born, there is evidence that her height is only 175 cm, and her weight is not higher than 55 kg. The girl is not married, and she has no children, but another daughter is being raised in the family.

Anna loves her family and often visits them - her parents live in the same place where she grew up - although she now spends more time in capitals or on tour and on tour.

The future Asti was drawn to music from early childhood, she loved to sing, danced even in preschool age. Her voice and plastic are really amazing, and her appearance is very remarkable. As a teenager, she studied the work of various performers for a long time, but it seemed to her that she would never be able to stand on a par with them. Not enough connections or money.

After graduating from school, she began working as a make-up artist, then briefly got a job as a legal assistant in a law firm. But dreams of a musical career never left her completely. As a result, the girl began to record songs and upload them to the network just for herself. She, of course, dreamed that someday a producer would stumble upon the record, who would decide to invest in her talent.

It would seem that such a dream is completely unrealizable, but it turned out that it was Anna who had a lucky star. In 2010, when Anna, tired, returned home from another part-time job, a strange call rang in her apartment. The young man introduced himself as Yuri Barnash. Anna recognized him - he was the vocalist of one of the famous projects "Mushrooms".

Everything resembled a fairy tale or a dream, the proposal that Yuri made seemed to be a real fantasy, and it completely changed Anna's life. However, more on this later, first time to introduce the second participant.

Artik

The second member of the duet, Artem Umrikhin, was born in Zaporozhye, 12/9/1985. He is married and has a son, Ethan.

As a child, Artem did not immediately become interested in music. He, like his peers, the children of the sunset of the USSR, liked to play football more and preferred to spend a lot of time on the street. But when he got to listen to the cassette "Bachelor Party", which at that time enjoyed great respect and love of the fans, Artyom wanted to go up on stage and influence the hearts of people in the same way. Dolphin and Dan - members of the group - were great at rap. Of course, this interesting style hooked Artyom in its own way. Rap inspired him, so the first thing he did was to come up with his own songs and recite them on a tape recorder. The first recordings were not very successful, but such a start determined the further life of Artyom.

By the end of school, he decided on an interesting step: he assembled the first team, instead of going deep into some other direction, it was called "Karats". Storming local clubs, the team became more and more famous, and soon the members of the group had the idea to try their own hand in Kiev. The pseudonym Artik appeared in Artyom at the same time, he was quite curious, and sonorous, and almost firmly attached to it.

The first collection of "Carats" appeared in 2004. It was "Platinum Music", and success came to the disc both in Ukraine and in the Russian Federation. Fans of the increasingly popular RnB have appreciated this creation.

The nomination for one of the prestigious Ukrainian awards was not long in coming, and together with it the team received a tempting offer of cooperation from Dmitry Klimashenko, known both as an artist and as a producer. The joint work resulted in the hit "God have mercy", the song attracted even more fans. Artem, of course, tried to consolidate his success with hard work.

By 2008, Karats were nominated as the Best RnB Group in Ukraine, and their permanent leader managed to work with many other artists, for example, Savicheva, Hot Chocolate, Djigan and the Quest Pistols team. The results have always been impressive. Many of the artists who collaborated with him noted his musical and organizational skills, and are ready to work with him again, because they know how high-quality things Artyom gets.

In 2010, the idea appeared to create a new musical project, for this Artik needed a girl. I decided to find the right one on my own using the Internet. He was very demanding, as his plans and ambitions for a new brainchild were truly grandiose. He needed a vocalist, whose plasticity and voice would be completely atypical, non-standard, and stand out.

So he came across some humble demos from Anna. The girl's voice and good looks made him make a decision, and then he instructed his close friend Yura Barnash to call an unknown performer at that time.

The emergence of the collective

So, in the evening in Anna's apartment the bell rang, which changed her whole life. She was very, very surprised, because the well-known Artik suddenly invited her to Moscow to work on a new project. Who could have believed in such luck? It was incredibly scary, but dreams nevertheless won, and Anna fell to the capital of Russia, to storm the musical Olympus.

Artik & Asti - the name was still a little longer then - officially started in early 2012. At the same time, the network saw the first video, called "Antistress". Music and lyrics, performance - all this did not disappoint, but views were not too readily recruited. Artyom, of course, could not like it, but it was not in his rules to retreat after the first failure. He saw how talented Anna was, felt that their ambition could lead to success, so he did not stop work on the project.

In 2013, "#RayOdinNaTwoikh" appeared. And this was a breakthrough for the team that was starting its life. The composition "My Last Hope" quickly gained 1.5 million views.

Following this, invitations fell upon the team, invited to perform, record and tour. They were even recognized on the streets. But Artik did not allow him to relax, he knew perfectly well that even a week of downtime would give odds to their competitors.

The next album appeared very quickly, which won even greater love, "Here and Now", and when "Number 1" came out, the popularity of the team could no longer be denied. Along with the popularity came awards and Golden Gramophones, as well as other awards.

Artik has not deviated from his favorite script - he continues to collaborate with other artists. For example, the last such exchange of experience was the clip "I smell only you", recorded together with Gluk'oZa. And according to rumors, this cooperation is not going to end.

Rumors and facts

The group Artik and Asti never allowed themselves a close relationship, although the fans talked a lot about it. In their friendship and partnership, there are no glimmers of romance, moreover, for Anna, Artem is more likely an older brother.

Anna, of course, is very grateful to him, because it was his efforts that led to the fulfillment of the dream that she cherished all her life. Artyom's opinion is extremely important for her, and in many issues she prefers to be guided by his words.

Anna does not yet have an official spouse, she does not want to start a family now, she does not show the fans her young man, although she does not get tired of repeating that he exists.

Artem does not consider it necessary to hide his wife and child. Ramina became his wife in 2016, when the duo toured Riga. A year later, their child, Ethan, was born.

The new work of the duo "Indivisible", this video immediately gained many views. In addition to studio work and filming, the team travels with pleasure.

The composition, recorded together with Gluk'oZa, helped the team to be nominated for the award as the best creative duet in 2018. In addition, this year the team became the "Best Pop Group" according to Muz-TV.

In 2018, the team actively toured the cities of Russia.

2016 was marked by even greater breakthroughs for the creative duo Artik and Asti. Their songs do not fly off the charts for months. This creative union is releasing one hit after another.

We offer you an interview in which you can find out what a tender girl named Anya (Asti) really dreams about and how a successful producer Artem (Artik) lives.

Who is Artik? Who is Asti? With the change of name, has life turned in a different direction?

Artik: Artik is practically my middle name. My real name is Artem. At first, friends called me simply Art, short for my name. Later it grew into Artik.

Asti: This is still the real us, Asti is just a stage name. And my life changed completely, because I achieved my cherished dream.

Tell us about your musical start?

Artik: I started to get involved in music at the age of 11. Then I heard for the first time how a neighbor's guy was reading the lyrics of the Bachelor Party and I really liked it, and I began to get involved in rap music. Later I got a computer and the first thing I did was buy a program for writing music. This is how my first songs appeared.

Asti: I loved music since childhood, sang at all possible events, I liked the audience, I liked the stage. But I could never imagine it real, I didn't think seriously about the singer's career. So one fine evening Artik called me and it all started from that moment. We tried to record a couple of test songs together and "sang" so to speak.

Artik, when did the reassessment of musical creativity happen? Searching for a female voice

Artik: I've always worked with vocalists. I really love beautiful voices and melodic songs. The reappraisal of creativity took place in 2011, when I decided to create my own production project. This is how I found Asti.

Asti, how did the capital meet?

Asti: Delightful!), Of course, it was difficult at first to change your little world to the completely opposite one. But if this is "yours", then everything is going in the best possible way. I immediately felt the energy of a big city, which still inspires and energizes me.

Asti, I know that your idol in pop music is Whitney Houston. Do you want to achieve such heights?

Asti: Of course! But I always look at life very realistically, and I think that very few people in the whole world can achieve such heights as it is. She is luxurious, unique and insanely talented, such people are born with a special purpose.

What are the people who inspire in the world of show business?

Item: Jay Z, Kanye West, Drake, Rihanna, Pharell, Beyonce and many more.

Asti: Oh, there are a lot of them! Well, for example: Beyonce, Jessie J, Sam Smith, Jessie ware, nicki minaj and many others)) these people inspire and serve as an example for me not only because I like their songs, but also because they work a lot on themselves, their shows, and of course their music. An artist is basically a "picture" and music, but in order for it to be interesting, you need to make a lot of effort.

Artik, you combine so many roles (producer, composer), did you think about staying on one?

Artik: All these roles are very closely interconnected and do not interfere with each other, but, on the contrary, complement each other. But as I get older, I go deeper and deeper into producing.

If you hadn't become an artist, what profession would you have chosen?

Artik: I chose this profession when I was a child and have been pursuing this all my life. So I can't even imagine. My parents wanted me to be a lawyer. I have a law degree, but I would not be able to work in this area.

Asti: I am a very versatile person, I am interested in everything!) I don’t know, I would become a flight attendant!

You quickly took off on the Olympus of show business, what difficulties did you face?

Artik: The difficulties in our show business are the same for everyone. Our radio stations and TV channels do not like to support young performers and are often judged very subjectively. But this is their right. Our songs are loved by the people, and this is the most important thing.

Doubts, "what would mom think and what dad would think" have never visited you?

Artik: I am not doing anything so that I have doubts about this!)

Asti: This is not a doubt, but a respect for parents. These words never leave me, because I always remember those I love. But I quickly became independent and matured in relation to my actions and decisions, so very few people can influence them at all.

With the advent of popularity, it rips off your head and whims appear, are you subject to this?

Artik: We are all human. But most likely these are not whims, but simply new standards. This is normal for any developing person.

Asti: I won't say that these are whims, perhaps I am becoming more demanding, but this does not always happen. And as for whims, you'd better ask my concert manager))) I think he sometimes wants to kill me for my quick temper. But this also happens only in moments of fatigue and difficult concert schedules, when the nerves are at the limit, and I am still one girl in our team - everyone understands me.

How do you manage to go into the shadows, because you are in plain sight, with your finger, probably, they show everything?

Artik: So far we are lucky with this. A very large number of people know our songs, but do not know us by sight, because we are a relatively new team.

Asti: Well, we don’t live in a zoo)) sometimes they recognize us, sometimes they don’t, and so far I’m very happy about that, because I can have fun when I live an ordinary life.

The phrase "we are just friends" has a deep connotation. And no one believes in this friendship, why?

Artik: Why doesn't anyone believe? Everyone believes and knows!

Asti: Because people want to believe that everything is not so simple. We do not see any subtext in this, others are looking, each his own.

What is between you?

Artik: First of all, friendly relations. But of course we are united by work!

Asti: We are not only friends, but also partners. Anyway, Art is like an older brother to me. I often consult with him and always take into account his opinion, he did a lot for me, and I will always be grateful for that.

Your personal life is under seven seals. Open the curtain a little.

Artik: There is no curtain! There is simply nothing to tell even!)

Asti: That's why it is personal, in order to remain so. When I have any special news, I will definitely share it with you.

Asti every day you diminish. The pursuit of immeasurable model parameters?

Asti: No way! I love beautiful shapes, I love to eat. Of course, it is necessary to follow the figure, but I am for health, and not for exhaustion for the sake of losing weight. It's just that there are sometimes moments when I on my own, without exhausting diets, lose weight. I, like any girl, naturally like it. Slenderness always suits the face.

- "Here and now" - when is the release of your quivering product?

Artik: On January 20, the album has already appeared in iTunes, and the most ardent admirers of our work can already pre-order and be the first to hear our creation! The full release is scheduled for February 13th!

What are your priorities in life: music, family, money, personal relationships?

Artik: Of course, family is the most important thing in life! Priorities cannot be shared between work and family! These are completely different things! And it's completely normal when a person has both a job and a family!

Asti: No matter how it sounds, nothing and no one can give me more pleasure than music. Then family and personal relationships, for which there is a catastrophic lack of energy and time ... And already the last place is taken by money, you cannot buy happiness for it.

Everyone is called a star and has the right to shine, don't you agree?

Artik: We are all free people!

Asti: Well, if this one did not mark himself with a star, then yes.

Could you formulate the ideology that Artik is promoting and grow?

Artik: We are promoting love!

Asti: We promote love and goodness, sincerity and feelings.

"I loved music since childhood, sang at all possible events, I liked the audience, I liked the stage. But I could never imagine it real, I did not think seriously about the singer's career. So one fine evening Artik called me and it all began from that moment on. We tried to record a couple of test songs together and "sang" so to speak. "

Asti first arrived in Moscow in 2013. Then Anna was even scared, since for her it was a new, large, unfamiliar city.

"I got used to living in my pink world, I was absolutely comfortable there, but at some point, I felt that this is a certain step forward, this is something interesting in life. I felt with my feminine intuition that something awaited me- something big and special. When my friend and I were talking about Moscow, she told me that as soon as I step the first step in this city, Moscow accepts me or not. Whether it is a railway station or an airport. And when I took the first step, I immediately felt an incredible surge of energy, I felt the metropolis. "

Asti gained fame as a singer after the song "My Last Hope" was released in rotation in November 2011.

"I then could not even think that my career would be somehow connected with show business, because I lived an ordinary life of an ordinary person in a small town and once my phone rang, it was Artik. It happened so unexpectedly, then I was nervous He was looking for me for a very long time, recognized my number, through strange acquaintances, after the 10th knee he found me. By the way, I still don't know the details of these stories, Artik will be able to explain how he did it (laughs) But if he needs something, I think he will get it out of the ground. "

The singer tells.

It is worth noting that at concerts Anya always sings to the "minus", that is, live.

Artik is a producer and hip-hop artist known for his collaborations with Dima Bilan, Quest Pistols and T-Killah. Laureate of the Golden Gramophone - as the author of the music for the composition Let go of Dzhigan and Yulia Savicheva. Owner of his own company Self Made Music. In 2011, Artik was in search of a new project as a producer - this is how we met the beginning vocalist Asti. It was decided to start my own project as a creative couple.

Asti studied vocals since childhood, inspired by the recordings of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and Rihanna: the girl rehearsed for hours, dancing in front of a mirror with an impromptu deodorant microphone. Partially she received her musical education from her parents: her father professionally pounded the drums, and my mother gave guitar lessons. Cooperation with Artik began with a call - according to Asti, her frantic energy found an addition from his calmness and regularity. The duo's songs are about sincere and pure feelings, romance and love.

The first track Artik & Asti My last hope received recognition on youtube, gaining 1,000,000 views, and the radio single Oblaka entered the TOP-100 chart of the best domestic compositions.

Artik pres. Asti - My last hope 03: 24 / * * / In September 2013, the debut of the #RaiOinNaDouikh album took place, followed by an active tour of the country and neighboring countries.
