This word: Меховое
I can find no meaning for it but "fur" but in context it can't mean that.

What else can it mean? The video translates to "Farewell to Fur" but it appears to be about folk traditions in a Russian village, mostly music, and there is no fur hunting and no fur processing in it anywhere. One section is called "fur-horn" and the fellow makes and plays a musical instrument from a hollowed stem and a cow horn.

On another front, I spent too many hours today exploring seapunk and now I am sad.

Oh, I feel much better now, thank you. If the "fur" part refers to the name of the village, I have no problem with it. Towns have stupid names in general. And doesn't "Gorodskoi" mean "related to a town" anyhow?(I deleted a comment that looks like an earlier version of this one, just for neatness).
