The album is not released in any physical form - no one found it necessary. The album is released in 2 forms: 1 mixtape and 1 version where the tracks are separated. All for your DJ:ing pleasure.
In 2008 Dmitry Fyodorov released 1 track every 29th of each month, one more hard hitting than the other. The viral www did the rest and transformed the mp3:s and the endless features on mixtapes to dance floor mosh pits all around Europe and further to
SXSW in Austin USA. As a visitor to Sweden’s summer festivals 2009, you would not have missed them when performing on
Emmaboda, Hultsfred, Arvika, Dans Dakar and more.
Now after a few years of metaphysical existence Dmitry Fyodorov has transcended into the digital reality with a debut album called “
Shapeless”. An album created during and influenced by a year of great traveling and introspection.
The name ”Shapeless” is a comment on the collective image of our home planet, the earth, as a pretty safe and constant environment that we, the inhabitants, have mapped out a long time ago. However this might not always be the case; if you start to look closer on our planet you will find a lot of anomalies and modern day events that sounds more like the plot for a video game or a great sci-fi novel. This is a common inspiration for several tracks on the album.

The list of influences could be made long but that would be missing the point entirely. Yes, you can hear the heritage from bands such as The Velvet Underground, The Byrds, Dinosaur Jr, and Orange Juice running through the songs but most of all The Fine Arts Showcase sound like, well, The Fine Arts Showcase. The Songs speak for themselves - stunning, romantic and beautiful. The Fine Arts Showcase always succeed in the hard task of sounding familiar and at the same time fresh, new and exciting.

10/10 - "The narration he gives us is honest, and more importantly, so balanced and self-aware of his vices and the role his actions played in his downfall -- what he conveys on "Dolophine smile" is something few modern albums contain: compassion."

"amazing, touching and highly entertaining"
INTRO
"Dolphine Smile is with its simplicity one of the most refreshing and successful pure Indie-Rock-album those days"
Rote Raupe
"If the Pop is well dosed it tastes like vanilla pudding"
Crazewire
"Either with opened or closed eyes the 10 songs seduce to dream, although being performed in bittersweet darkness... a modern and probably timeless liaison"
Indie Suite
7/10 - "Dolphine Smile´ is the perfect soundtrack for the starting autumn mood. Often dark, sometimes rainy but sporadically last sunshine flashes up behind the deep hanging clouds."
CD Starts
"sad, bittersweet and heart-rending"
Uncle Sallys Magazine
"That album´s dark bittersweet mixture may sometimes strain but perfectly fits to the autumn weather."
Campus Web
"When a woman falls in love with a man it´s still her own fault. And if you are separated at the end you can listen to Dolphin Smile. At least it will give a bit of relief"
Sonic Seducer Magazine
7/10 - "When the album finishes off with `You Knew I Was Trouble From The Start´ it requires a repetition of that album to turn out to be more than a profit"
