On 17 November 2016, Love Cult was a guest on Shanghai; and on 4 February 2016 was a guest on CTM Festival 2016. Love Cult has been played on NTS over 10 times, featured on 16 episodes and was first played on 17 October 2012.

Love Cult were a duo from Russia (founded in 2009, disbanded in 2017), aficionados of all things troublesome, distressed and emotional. Northern Technology. Dark Electronica. Obsessive Techno. Militant House. Noise Pop.

Love Cult's music escapes the cleanness or overproduction whatsoever. Their swampy tracks bear the weight of Putin's Russia: murky, decaying, out there. Is this dance music? Well, if “club” means a place for lost souls, yes. It's "head music" as well, but it will shake you.

Disregarding every possible parameter and value of human voice, the remnants of Anya’s vocal lines hang in the air like heavy smoke rings. Sub-heavy beats thunder relentlessly behind raw and naked clockwork programming. At points, microscopic samples scrape as if threatening to knife the listener. On their latest EP, "Wonderland", every fraction of the sound was re-amped through empty corridors, metal tubes and prime analogue equipment.

Love Cult gave live performances across Russia and Europa, played at festivals like Sonar, Flow and Manifesta, successfully shining in art galleries as well as club spaces. Anya Kuts represented Russia at Red Bull Music Academy 2013 in New York.

Anya and Ivan's motto was as follows: if a place seems scary, there’s something to learn there.
