Zavoloka. Suspenzia. /digi-pack/
This album causes strange feelings, varied – but no doubt interesting. At least, I have listened through it at one go – and I will surely listen to it again, and not once. It is not for nothing that this music is called IDM – it is really intelligent. And – one can here very well that it was created by a female soul. Although I would not be able to explain how exactly that is revealed, but – one can hear that indeed. Possibly – due to some features of appealing to Ukrainian folklore. And then a sort of a paradox appears. On the one hand, something constantly takes place here – at that, that is constantly something new, often quite unexpected. That is, the method of narration is not cyclic, although you could hardly name it linear either. And at the same time – even abrupt turns and seemingly sharp angles all the same have the quality of some roundness, even smoothness. Femininity... Or let us look otherwise. Spontaneous, instantaneous, saturated flashes do not get stuck in rhythms, do not hang in emptiness – they obviously live a more conscious life. This album is somewhat similar to a few chains bound together. In the sense that it seems that there is nothing casual – one is born from the other and, in its turn, gives birth to something else. And neighboring links are often not similar at all – but there is something that makes the dialogs between the "grandfathers" and "great-grandchildren" take place... A strange disc, unusual – and very live due to the way of thinking and feeling.

Zavoloka. Vedana. /eco-pack/.


It is exploration of Water Element. It is inspired by knowledge about Ukrainian Cossacks-Magicians, so-called Kharakternyky, that could control forces of nature, particularly water. They used to drink spring water to purify their energy and to became undistinguished and fluid as water. To reach inner melting.

Kotra. Reset. /eco-pack/.


..the monotonous repetition of the structure of formal motions results in that you stop taking this structure into account, noticing it – from now on you see quite different things here. This, if you wish, can be compared with Buddhists' reading of mantras: first you set a structure, and then you go beyond its scopes. So, Kotra has not abandoned the quest – and again tries to fit the listener into a situation of liberation.

Dunaewsky69. Xquisite. Xcerpt. /eco-pack/.


We could say that it is a disc rather easy for perception – so easy that even almost a dancing one. In any case, rhythms pulsate stably here, do not break, do not disappear all of a sudden. The other way round – they develop, flow, grow in. But, at the same time, the melodies induce not so much to entertainment and loud conversations as to reflections, attentive perception.

Tom Carter, Vanessa Arn, The Moglass. Snake-tongued Swallow-tailed...


And due to active use of live instruments, this music is called post-rock. And due to how exactly and in what combinations they are used – it is named ambient and psycho-folk. It is a live, warm matter, and it bears a long, tangible, contemplative feeling – of coziness, growth, flow...
