Biography of Nazim Khamitov

The day before, we contacted London and took an exclusive interview from the musicians. How did you react to the stream of negativity in social networks, they say, is it better to help the poor or cure patients? So that everyone understands, within the framework of this event, not only we flew here, but also a rather big delegation - archaeologists, journalists, representatives of the akimat.

But the information turned so turned so that all the money, the entire budget of the event was spent only on us, the Made in KZ group. Those who call us on the Internet are near people. They didn’t succeed in their life, so you have to pour the bile on someone. Fortunately, now there is such an opportunity - to sit at home on the couch, create a lot of fake pages and water all mud.

And then, when you go not to speak somewhere, but to the capital of the world, you understand that you have not lost anything at all. Even the opposite.

After all, this is a level! Not every Kazakh artist is such an honor - to perform in the UK under the flag of their country. True, at first it was a little disappointing that, having arrived in London, we were quarantined. I don’t know if it applies to all those who arrived here or only those who have a vaccine have no approval of WHO and the European Union. These are the rules of Great Britain.

But, to be honest, in the evenings they still quietly went out and walked a little bit. Fortunately, on the fifth day after re-passing the PCR test and a negative result, it was possible to go out. Once we sat in the studio and recorded something like a joke. They didn’t even suspect that he would come in like that, but he just flew! Thanks to social networks where our performances spread, they began to recognize us.

But we are not only a cover group, we already have copyright songs, our own material, ready for the release of an entire album. As soon as the quarantine is weakened, they are very waiting for us in the cities of Russia. I would like to ride in European countries. We will carry our main mission to the world - to popularize Kazakh creativity, native folklore and national music.

My mother worked all her life to the engine to the engine in the electrocele of the mine, and her father was a miner. Therefore, I graduated from the Zhezkazgan Polytech, where I learned to be a mining engineer. But the love of music won. At one time, we had our own family ensemble. Therefore, since childhood, I played the piano and, having graduated from the legendary music school named after Akhmet Zhubanov, entered the conservatory.

Although my mother is an accountant in kindergarten, and dad worked in the traffic police before retirement, ”adds Zhandos Akimbaev. But when she came to the team, we were not yet married, ”says Baurzhan. And, of course, he immediately wrote to her about it. But he first invited me not in Made in KZ, but to another, a parallel project, where I was a DJ. Only in eight months, we realized that we like each other.

Then everything went and went, and we created a family. The desire to engage in creativity did not disappear? We had paid online events, and online concerts, and even banquets, and also held Timbildings in Zoom. The fee, of course, is less than when we are alive, but nevertheless. Plus, I opened a mini-market on quarantine, where products, vegetables and household goods were sold.

But at some point this business absorbed me so much that I began to be distracted from my work. Suddenly I realized that I had not written anything new, and decided to urgently move away from these affairs. The music won again! The exhibition began work at the Fitzuyillam Museum in Cambridge on September 28. But long before her opening, all tickets for the coming months were sold out.

The leading scientists of the world have already called it a world event and appropriated five stars. What caused such interest? The artifacts presented to the attention of the British society were discovered by Kazakh archaeologists in East Kazakhstan in the mounds of the Saka elite of the VII-VI centuries BC. This period is called the Golden Age in the history of the ancient Kazakhs.

The crown of the exposition is the burial of a young archer - a new golden man dated to the VI -V centuries BC. His clothes have 15 thousand gold items. In the year, the remains of a warrior were found in permafrost, surrounded by exquisite jewelry and weapons. Gold bracelets, scabbard, jewelry, miraculously preserved elements of clothing and harnesses of leather and felt - this is not a complete list of exhibits that immerse spectators into the world of ancient Saki tribes who won the territory from the Black Sea to Central Asia.

Stone manual mills do not look as attractive as gold jewelry, but they prove that the saki-sisters made flour. As the head of Eastern Kazakhstan, Danial Akhmetov, noted, the subjects indicated that the ancient Saki had unique culture and deep knowledge in the areas of nomadic cattle breeding, mining and metallurgy. We are glad that these valuable materials for the first time in Europe will be shown precisely to our visitors.

British archaeologists have already expressed a desire to participate in excavations in the territory of East Kazakhstan, and, most likely, the cooperation of the two countries will not be limited only to this exposition.
