Influences Shilonosova claims that much of her inspiration comes from Russian children's films, such as:
Blue Puppy, Dot Dot Comma, and
The Adventures of Elektronik. She admires the "deep thought behind superficial foolishness" of fairy tales and the nostalgia brought on by children's films. Shilonosova credits many signifiers from the 80s as her inspiration for
Room for the Moon, as she grew up surrounded by the popular culture of that time. Indi' music initially featured English lyrics and aligned itself with the global community of indie music. The New Russian Wave consists of 1980s and 1990s musical motifs that intended to develop nostalgia for a Pre-Putin era and to discover the roots of Russian identity through rejection of a Westernized image. Some requirements of the New Russian Wave are: the use of Russian language, lyrics about everyday life, a sonic lack of refinement, and basic execution of production. Shilonosova's band,
Glintshake, took part in one of the central spaces for the circulation of the New Russian Wave, Festival Bol.
Glintshake was chosen to go on a 2018 European tour to spread awareness about the New Russian Wave. ==Discography==
