Sometimes it happens that you open something new, and almost immediately it becomes so inherent in you like it grown out of yourself. This is what I felt when I listened to The Shopping Hour, the first studio recorded experimental album by Tanya Sha. It was not envisaged to be performed in a concert, but a few years ago it went beyond the Kofein studio. The Shopping Hour became a music team which gives concerts, performing new backings and new songs. This resulted in a new album which has already well-shown itself during the performances. Is the studio version different from the concert one? No doubt. But it represents the expressions of the same integral thing, and it would have been a real pity to reject tambura and santur to ensure strictly live performance of the famous Romance done on the lyrics of Oleksandr Oles. Without disclosing all secrets, it is enough to say that it remains up to date to go beyond one language and one culture. In my opinion, the album represents the Ukrainian music, but the music which is done by the new generation. It is the product of the new world. The entire world. You can listen it in Europe, in Asia, in Africa, in both Americas, in Australia. In contains such a delicate force of harmony which washes away any barriers and speaks to each individual using its own language. And a few affectionate words in the end. I think, that love saves the world not from itself, every day, every minute, but rather for itself. They say that the beauty is in the eyes of the one watching. Watching with the heart. This album has been done with love, and it is obvious. It is really outstandingly beautiful..

The concert performance – it is different, and not only due to presence of a new song. The sound, nuances of arrangements, team of musicians – but, above all – the energy. And this is the case when, even while just listening to the recording, you experience a kind of happening – not least due to Jamala's affection for gospel.

The new album by Boombox is another very significant reason to mention the year 2011 as one of the most yielding years for the non-ordinary Ukrainian popular music. No doubt – despite the title, "Middle Age", no crisis is in question here. On the contrary.

The same case when you listen – and you just delicious, let it be said that this nearly weightless blend call. And that is why, perhaps, it seems that musicians Pur:Pur can easily fit in any cultural landscape – or, conversely, to write it in your sunny space.

Jamala – and the debut album illustrates this very nicely – creates light music in the best Western tradition. And not just coolly – at a high quality level. Her love for soul, funk, jazz, burlesque and even classical music – it's all here, in this music so many things are mixed that you cannot guess everything at once...

It seems to me it is just not possible to listen to them – and not to imagine some stories. Very different – and identically bright. And the main thing is the absolute sincerity, which you feel literally in every sound of the music, in every intonation of Nata Smirina's voice. This is as though you wake up on the first morning of the Indian summer – and, willy-nilly, it catches your breath...

Fortunately, sometimes you run across the albums about which it is very difficult to say anything – because you just frankly like them. Because, in spite of external simplicity, they contain so many ideas, various subtleties – one's ears just go astray..) Because the music tells you stories without words, while the words tell you stories full to the brims with music..

It would seem – just vocal and the piano. But this only verbally looks rather ascetic – in actual fact, a surprisingly powerful emotional current lives inside there. Actually, the way the voice and the piano sound – makes Hanna Brizhata, aka Anniebri, a truly unordinary phenomenon on our scene. Honestly speaking, I can hardly think about a single Ukrainian album resembling "Lo-Fi Feeling"...

In spite of that “At Night” compositions do not meet the pop-format, the album is aimed at mass audience. The name, voice and the specific, characteristic of only Svyatoslav Vakarchuk melodics of the compositions will help fans of Ukrainian music become acquainted with new music forms, to seize new music territories.

If we begin from the end, we could do it so: this is a wonderful, heartfelt, clear, high-quality album – and at present this is the best album in the reserve of Anno Domini. All previous experience, all best qualities acquired new depth here, started shining with new colors. And if we begin from the beginning...

...with their own example the group perfectly demonstrates that serious sense of humor can lead far enough. It has already brought Sontseklyosh to a very tight concert schedule, wide recognition in not that really narrow circles, and now – to the second album as well. The album, believe me, is cool...

The familiar melodies will arise in an updated, sometimes unexpected form, unknown ones will have a chance not to be forgotten. Folk songs in the style of Mad Heads XL, the sound is based on modern ska-punk without clear style limits. Positive, good moods and frantic drive – all the best from Mad Heads XL now in folk songs!

"Integro" sounds very prudent, balanced – there is something special that makes it an album, and a strong one, not a collection of colorful pictures. As a flower that suddenly opens up in the middle of the night and – darkness becomes transparent, the air – cool and fragrant, and thoughts – pure...

In its previous album "Pokosy", ShockolaD stepped away from jazz for an almost safe distance – the key definition of the work would be "ethno-lounge". Well, and this time the group seems to have decided to remix all familiar ingredients – both the ethno, and jazz, and acoustic lounge – and, sure, to season it with a few new colors.

On the one hand, everything is simple – it contains both a rich instrumental component, and the ethno-jazz-rock mixture with the psychedelic aftertaste, and, certainly, the magic seasoning of ancient language. On the other hand – everything is also simple: the soul was invested here, one can hear this – and, maybe, that is why the music penetrates so deeply...

...the album "Free" resembles that very puzzle, an element of mosaics that was lacking in order that the picture became integral, completed. It – disregarding, let me repeat it, the status of the debut one – seems to sum up some results, outline the visible and known space and, thus, free space for a step forward.

First I listened to the Ojra’s records somewhere at the end of 90-ties, yet then it was the attempt to join the archaic and the up-to-date. The staff of the group changed several times since then, and they didn’t give up to search. Of course, a variety of creative paths they made gave its outcome: one of the best, I think, neo-folk records of all Ukrainian discography of the recent years.

..here, "On the Verge" – the force of water is revealed very perceptibly, magic of quite a different level appears, intended for other purposes. That is, the first works were just to burn everything old, not able to live on – to clear the space. The new work – must feed the new, fresh relying on those roots that did not subdue to the action of fire. That verge from which creation of the new myth..

In its foundation, the idea was simpler and defined as "ethno-cabaret" – that is, folk songs decorated with a music mix from any sorts of styles. Conditionally speaking, from northern dub to oriental blues. And as a result they conducted skilful retro-styling for NEP times (the New Economic Policy), that is for around the 1920s. And what appeared then – was a bomb.

The mosaic that results is as bright as deep – "Burdon" once again opens the beauty of old music virtually lost for large audiences. And, at the same time, throws a tank of oxygen into the flame of modern folk – let it burn brightly and not die away...

Взяв я цей диск і думав, послухаю пару треків, складу загальне враження, якщо буде цікаво, послухаю більше.
Якраз ми з моєю "скво" повечеряли. Включив... І поки сідюк сам не зупинився після останнього трека сидів і слухав, моя краща половина так само. Давно такого не було. Не відпускає цей альбом тебе просто так, слухай, каже, стервена душа і навіть не думай треками клацати.
Романс на слова Олеся підтверджує тезу деяких маніяків про те що індуси це українці і навпаки. :)
Альбом, з яким можна привітати і тих, хто його записав і тих, хто його вже послухав, ачи буде слухати.

Звичайно, Антон Йожик Лейба був надто сором'язливим, щоб зізнатись, що він сам тут грає.
Of course Anton Jozhik Leyba (Hedgehog) was too shy to mention that he plays on the CD
