HouseProgressive HouseDeep House

DJ Kimbar is a Russian house DJ who turns up in the mid 2000s on a string of mix CDs, often as one half of a pairing, and who became a regular in the RTS.FM studio between 2009 and 2011. Very little has been published about him in his own words, so this page sticks to release data and states where nothing is known.

Name and Identity

The Discogs entry for Kimbar has no biography. It lists the name variations DJ Kimbar and Кимбар, and marks its own data quality as needing major changes. We matched it to the RTS.FM guest by shared credits rather than by a stated profile: the Discogs entry includes Solyanka 2009, a compilation that also credits Kubikov and Sapunov, two names from the same RTS.FM guest list.

Mix CDs

Discogs counts five main releases, all from Russia. The first two are from 2004: Day & Night Fashion Mix, made with Yelkashu for the Day & Night label and tagged house, progressive house, electro house, deep house and minimal, and Make Your Own Party With Bacardi, a double CD with DJ Vitalik on KDK Records and Jet Sound. Day & Night Wanted, again with Yelkashu, followed in 2006. In 2007 he and Vitalik released Music For Modern Living, a CD on Balisong Records, tagged progressive house, deep house and tech house, with Stereozvuk listed as distributor.

Solyanka 2009

His most visible compilation credit is Solyanka 2009, a tin-case release on the Solyanka label that combines Kubikov and Sapunov, Lega, S.Peres, Yaponets, DJ Chagin and Kimbar (credited as Кимбар). The S.Peres name there is one of the aliases of Sergey Sanches, and Anton Kubikov and Sapunov have their own profiles. Discogs tags the release as electro, drum and bass, hip hop and tech house, which gives a sense of how wide the compilation reached.

Sound and Style

Across the credits the common ground is progressive and deep house in a club-mix format. The tags change from release to release, but the CD format and the paired credits with Vitalik and Yelkashu point to a DJ who worked in resident-style mixes for promoters and brands rather than as a studio producer. That is an inference from the catalogue, not a statement from Kimbar.
