Zavoloka. Vedana. /eco-pack/.
This album is a continuation of the "natural elements" cycle by Kateryna Zavoloka launched with the work "Viter" (Wind), which was dedicated to the atmospheric air. Well, and "Vedana" – this is already a dedication to water. It is quite logical to assume that the work will be performed in some, say, smooth-noise aesthetics – however, dozens of other assumptions would be logical as well. And what we have – a kind of idm on the verge of electro-rock, against the background of vast layers of sonic fog, with delicate green shoots of tasty "petty sounds", which sometimes turn into true lush thickets of this, that and every other electronic music-playing. After all, water is a very plastic, magical, universal thing. Whatever it is – steam, ice or liquid – it is always remains itself... The same is true regarding Zavoloka's music, which – and in the new album even more than before – tends to certain universality. The more, the easier it incorporates elements of various styles – absorbs, dissolves, combines, converts – and thus remains surprisingly recognizable, does not betray its native riverbed. But – it becomes lighter, more transparent, gentle... It seems that is paces now barely touching the ground. Still, perhaps it should be so with living water...

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.

Zavoloka. Suspenzia. /digi-pack/


...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...

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...
