I’m currently doing lots of research for the 2nd part of our computer game trilogy Soviet Unterzoegersdorf. And I stumbled upon some really great non-traditional versions of the Soviet national anthem.

Here is an early 1990’s improvisational and very jazzrockish take with lots of mullets.

And here is another gem. A rather minimalistic techno version. Feel the beat of the kolchoz.

I wish you a happy dictatorship of the proletariat.

nice post. however, just wanted to point out that the “minimalistic techno” version of the SNA is actually more like a progressive house or trance version of it. minimalistic techno has shorter, non cohesive riffs and a less pounding beat…
