Ilnaz Tarkhanov, also known under the alias CRAMP, started his career in 2005 as a member of project Neoblizz.

Today, Cramp is the one of the most sought-after and talented musicians in Eastern Europe – with a global reputation and following. By choosing progressive house and progressive trance as the main musical directions, Ilnaz has started to write tracks and remixes literally one by one. Crucially, this has meant that his output not only receives local acclaim, but also commands airtime on world-famous radio stations and media outlets.
Many Cramp tracks became classics of the Russian and European trance scene. The track “Deadline” was included in American DJ Markus Schulz’s “Armada At Ibiza” compilation, and has been nominated for the Global Selection award in Marcus’s world-famous radio show “Global DJ Broadcast”.

A producer that seems to going from strength to strength right now, Russia’s Cramp has caused an almighty buzz with his latest track – ‘RU116’.
