Help me find a Russian Cover version of a Momus Song

Whilst travelling in Russia recently, I heard what I think is a cover version of a Momus song called 'Hairstyle of The Devil' - I'd really like to track down this cover.
I think it was a cover - although I couldn't understand the lyrics - but the music was note for note a euro-trancey version of the original.
I heard it twice maybe three times, in taxis and shops - so am assuming it was quite famous, but my Russian wasn't good enough to find out the artiste. The people I was with weren't able to hear it mentioned on the radio. I have tried the alt.fan.momus googlegroup, and the Imomus website...but no joy.
Now I throw myself on the mercy and knowledge of the global metafilter community.

Have you tried posting to I Love Music? A few momus obsessives on there.

Momus himself posts to ILM (or used to, I haven't read it recently). Also you could try emailing him directly - I'm sure he'd be happy to help.
