October 2nd begins a new countdown for the new video release of t.A.T.u., who represented Russia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 and came third, are leaving with their team for Los Angeles to shoot their new video for the single Belyi Plashik (White coat). The track will be a pre-single of the album which has a working title “Upravleniye Otbrosami” (�Waste Management�). The release of the album is scheduled for late November or early December this year.

t.A.T.u's management claims that all tracks and vocals for the Russian album are ready. Mixing and mastering are scheduled for the beginning of November, which means thatthe actual printing and release of CDscan be expected by theend of Novemberor beginning of December. Reportedly it all depends on the strategy of the local record-company that will distribute the album in Russia. It is also said that the video for Beliy Plashik will be ready by the beginning of November and that there's a special purpose behind the choice of geography of the shooting.

"There will be no city in the video, actually. Which means that the purpose is notthe city itself.In that sense the video for Beliy Plashik can be shot anywhere, just like many other previous t.A.T.u. videos", says the management.

"To get the result that you and we want, People are needed. With the level of professionalism we know and with whom we haveworked before, those peoplecan be reachedin Los Angeles."

There may be more difficulties to come as California is faraway from Russia, and it's the less preferable choice considering Julia's pregnancy. Julia Volkova who is more than 6 months pregnant will fly across the ocean and back.
