The trademark of the artists has always been to fabricate the technoid electro sounds completely by hand. So you have to be fast.

Serbia / StreetartThis block of flats has been covered in great graffiti all around, and there is also a large-scale mural on one side. The connecting works were created during a bigger spray project by RIZLA SQUAD with an elaborate collaboration work across the facades.
