Aleksandr Chiesa first came to attention as part of the Moscow-based post-punk synth duo, Гласность (Glasnost), releasing two albums with CN: Пиета (Pietà,. 2019) and Дом Культуры (House Of Culture, 2020).

Now resident in Berlin, Платтенбау (Plattenbau) is a solo project showcasing his love for acid techno and new beat; presenting an album of sounds that could've been commanding the dancefloor of an Antwerp club, in 1988.

"Berlin based Plattenbau (real name Aleksandr Chiesa) indulges in some Richard H. Kirk and Orb worship here by creating a tape of cerebral dance music that can be as equally appreciated as a soundtrack to and from the club as well as IDM dancefloor material. ‘Step 4’ in particular has an intensity about that is reminiscent of Fuck Buttons at their best and ‘Step 5’ feels like a heavier Chris and Cosey number." (Christopher Owens, Predominance 18, www.thepensivequill.com/2022/06/predominance-18.html)

"Now residing in Berlin, Chiesa opens the curtains, revealing a path that leads to the dance floor. With acidic flashes and stripping post-punk to its bare bones, Chiesa creates a shimmering version of tech-house circa 2022 with (= 2021); one of the finest electronic releases so far this year. Cruel Nature going all Kompakt. They’ve done everything else, so why not?" (Sun 13, sun-13.com/2022/06/27/label-watch-cruel-nature-records/)
