AMBASSADOR21 is:

Natasha A Twentyone – voice, electronics, lyrics
Alexey Protasov – voice, electronics, synths, guitars, music

AMBASSADOR21, the often imitated but never equaled industrial duo from Belarus. Throughout the past years, Natasha A Twentyone and Alexey Protasov have clearly put their mark on the industrial scene with their harsh, relentless sound and their explosive live performances. And it doesn’t look like their reign of domination is about to end soon. But what would you expect from a band that has the punk-attitude flowing through their veins and lives in the same sick and twisted world you do?
AMBASSADOR21 always balance on the edge, their music is a breaking point, where industrial, hardcore, metal and breakbeat blend together in a unique apocalyptic mix.

All their lives Natasha A Twentyone and Alexey Protasov have been associated with music, been involved with local punk bands from their teenage years. Later they became well-known radio DJs on the biggest commercial FM-station in Belarus, still they continued to promote all kinds of alternative music. Then one day they just decided to stop all other work, not be part of the system and be only musicians. Independence is not the easiest way, but the choice was made. In 2001 AMBASSADOR21 was born and released few singles and their debut album “Invitation For Execution” – absolutely angry, weird and very political record, which was highly marked by well-known Belarussian and Russian alternative music media.

During AMBASSADOR21 existence they released bunch of full-length albums, EPs and lots of tracks and remixes for Invasion (band’s own record label), Metropolis, Hands, Ant-Zen, Pflichtkauf, Audiotrauma, Out Of Line, PRSPCT, Industrial Strength, Vendetta Music and more.

They toured a lot and performed at many festivals, like M’era Luna (Germany), Wave-Gotik-Treffen (Germany), Kinetik Festival (Canada), E-tropolis (Germany), Maschinenfest (Germany), Plage Noire (Germany), Castle Party (Poland), Forms Of Hands (Germany), PRSPCT XL and PRSPCT RVLT (Netherlands), Baroeg Open Air (Netherlands), Ososphere Festival (France), Dark Dance Treffen (Germany), Helsinki Industrial Festival (Finland), KOMA Festival (Norway), Noxious Art Festival (France), Chauffer Dans La Noirceur (France), Gogbot Festival (Netherlands), Wroclaw Industrial Festival (Poland), Elektroanschlag (Germany), Resistance Festival (UK), Industrial Festival Cannes (France), Sickfest (Russia) and many gigs in France, Switzerland, UK, Italy, Canada, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Greece, Slovakia, Poland, Czech Republic, Russia and Belarus.
