DDT," "Zveri," "Splean," "Zemfira," "Underwood," "Kalinov Most," "Melnitsa," "Animatsiya." We don't know how these artists would sound and whether we could listen to them online if not for Alexey Kozin and the project Navigator Records he founded in 2006. In 2013, the magazine "Afisha" included Navigator Records among the leading Russian music labels and called it the biggest player in the Russian rock industry. The company's back catalog features albums from many top artists, as well as compositions from the independent music scene (Alexander Pushnoy, Arkadiy Dukhin). Navigator Records pays special attention to the work of young artists ("Posle 11," "Moya Michelle," "Fruktoviy Kefir," Ilya Kireev, NKTN, IL, and others). The label also helps young performers with promotion, repertoire, and concert activities. Navigator Records provides full support for the albums it releases in the media and is involved in booking activities for the artists it collaborates with. In 2013, the label became part of the National Federation of the Music Industry (NFMI) — a professional association that united the largest recording companies operating in Russia to help develop a legal music market.
