In 1995, Shura, with Kuzma's support, began to realise his long-held dream of creating an electronic music project inspired by his trips to Germany. The name appeared quite quickly and, as was always the case with Skryabin, almost mystically - ‘M20’, because this is the real name of the model of the last Pobeda that was used to travel to Berlin. I have to say that the use of Sovietism in the names and visualisations of art projects at that time in Berlin, and in Europe as a whole, was a trend - it was a natural process of desacralising totalitarian communist ideology. ‘M20’ is an abbreviation for “Molotov 20”, the factory index of the Pobeda, which was produced by the Molotov plant. The emblem with this inscription was placed on the hood and in the interior on the Pobeda's torpedo. Later, it turned out that Molotov's real name was Skryabin, as Kuzma told in the 30 November 1995 episode of the Soundpark programme. Such an unplanned coincidence in the name unexpectedly emphasised the nature of the project: another face of the Scriabin group. For this project, Shura called himself D. J. Molotov, and Kuzma took the pseudonym D. J. Zwanzig. The compositions were quite different in style: from industrial and techno to breakbeat and trance with an admixture of Hutsul melodies. Nothing like this had been heard in Ukraine at that time. In Volodymyr Zaikovskyi's Modus Vivendi programme, Kuzma and Shura make an announcement and talk about their project and their collaboration with Volodymyr in creating video material to accompany their live performances. The final part of the programme features the video for the first song from the album ‘Open’, which was filmed on the territory of the Novoyavoriv Sulphur Plant, the so-called ‘Sulphur’. Subsequently, the video ‘Open’ was broadcast for a long time on the hit parade ‘Territory A’. In June 1997, the first edition of CDs with the album ‘Molotov Zwanzig’ was released. Later on, Kuzma no longer participated in the project and Molotov 20 continued to exist as a personal creative project of Serhiy Hera.
