The project Olya & Monstr is a sort of reincarnation of the Odessa group Airplane, which existed at the end of the 1990s and even had time to release one album with the same name. Actually, Olya – Olga Pulatova – is now better known due to her participation in the group Fleur. But, as we can see, Fleur's success does not prevent her from searching for some new ways and planes – and this is good. Olga's ability to compose bright texts remains at its height here as well. As well as her performance talent. The force and understanding with which she conveys such different emotions, feelings in her singing – take one away. From transparent tenderness to a bellicose call, from concentrated reflections to complete relaxation, from despair to quiet joy – but, in any case, with a considerable deal of contemplation. Multiplied by the obvious music talents of Olexiy "Monster" Radionov, it results in appearance of another pearl – not too loud yet, but interesting. That is, we would not doubt that not everyone will like this music – but. For those who will truly hear it, with the internal hearing – the word "to like" will be, sure, too vague. Sometimes, the impression is that when listening to this album we are just one fourth of a step away from something that cannot even fit in geography of separate countries, but that will sound for the whole world. We will see how it goes on. But to feel this already now, in this work – it is very pleasant. By the way, the already mentioned album "Airplane" was released by the recording house Quasi Pop Records, and not by chance – the latter, in general, deals with special, "non-alike" music. And recently a disc that can be considered a delicate masculine response to the fragile female refinement of Airplane and Olya & Monster has been released. That is the Kyiv project Ivan Samshit – a beautiful combination of the elegant and distanced, of simplicity and beauty… All songs are in Russian.

Sure, "Episodes" is pop music, but it is also sure to be intelligent pop-music, multi-layered, and interesting. That lives somewhere on the edge – and thus it is capable of transforming its audience. If you wish, dark pop. The promise of taking through the darkness and bringing into something new – it is there.

"Molfar", I guess, is about the fact that there is no difference where from and where to, because there as always here-and-now. Where there is no place for hope – hope requires memory and time – and here all the space is occupied with.. attention? I do not even know – you stay in this space while the album plays on, and then this space just plays on in you..

It is Alex Nademski who is the author of the project – and, in particular, of all the lyrics and the music (although he says he only recorded what came to him). ILLaria is a "guest star," the voice. Still, when one listens, it's hard to say whose role is the leading one – the both worked at their full capacity, that's sure.

..It’s hard to pinpoint exact influences that aptly mirror what Dark Patrick is going for here, though a safe bet would want to include nods to numerous strata of organic electronica, soundtrack ambient, world ethnotronica, psych and trip-hop. Additionally, the band claims some affiliation to the fertile soils of reggae, dub and trance...

Above all, Viktor Krysko is known as the constant member of the original Kyiv project Er.J.Orchestra, although recently he pays no less attention to the so-called K-Trio – Roman Kolyada's project. Well, and the album "Cinema Graffiti" introduces us to his somewhat different hypostasis. That of a composer.

"Brutal pop power" – so they call it. But there is a great temptation to also add other words: post-rock plus acoustic acid jazz with trip hop education – something like this, probably. However, all these names do not contradict each other – because music like this as it is means going beyond the limits of specific style...

Festivals of electronic music, jazz, rock – everywhere this group feels comfortable, and now it is even testing its ability to create music for films. Mamanet offers to the audience an intellectually energetic, strangely bewitching mixture of trip-hop, acid-jazz, post-rock, drum'n'bass and even disco – it is far not possible to define the group's art with some concrete word.

Atmospheric guitars, the melodiousness of the bass, separate patterns of the percussion against the background of the not always unambiguous main rhythms – and the interwoven braids of the characteristic, emotional vocal by Olena Sas, crystal-clean and warm at the same time. It might seem that everything is simple – but this is sort of correct, saturated simplicity that makes it transparent and soft inside..

This time "Fayno" once again offer their own lyrics and songs based on poems by such interesting and distinguished authors as Lazutkin, Lyubka, Honchar, Kiyanovska, Moskalets, etc. These interpretations are always interesting to listen to – at least, because the accents sometimes sound very different...

The first fourteen customers will receive this disc signed by Irena Karpa! the new album from Qarpa Band is the music of the world which does not exist. It does not exist outside big cities, the Web, the utter interpenetration of cultures, and dilution of borders. This is the voice woven out of thousand voice...

Given the impression that it is able to produce – it is even a pity that out of the three albums by the group, only this – "Poisoned Dreams" – has been released on physical media. Powerful stuff – and not only due to the style. Although, sure, high-quality performance of heavy music – it is always interesting. But here it is also about the contrast...

..there are increasingly more "problem-free" songs. Perhaps, it is just a way of self-defense – but "Postsense" protects itself otherwise. This group – attacks. Does not turn away, does not invent politically correct formula. They call unpleasant things their proper names – so, their album is not for those seeking for alienated comfort.

Alternative music? – yes, this is it. Sympho-rock – yes, moreover, already now the group feels very confident in this sense, works at a large scale. Gothic? – yes, this is exactly the word that is the first to occur, if one speaks about the atmosphere as a whole, and about some texts in particular. Melodious heavy metal? – this, obviously, was the basis from which what we hear now grows.

It is difficult to say where from in this fragile girl there is such an enormous amount of kinetic energy – we have nothing but to observe with sincere fascination how the dissected waves fall on the both sides of the selected course... And the course is such that in the last three albums – including this, new one – surprised ears of the audience hear more and more banter, quite hard and psychotropic electronic alternative.

lately it is well-aimed – a distracting blow on mind, a sort of that it is a logical riddle – but actually all this is directed at the emotional body, and in order to understand and get penetrated with it – it is not necessary to understand. the other way round, you should not understand – and then everything becomes clear. in a nutshell – zen. somewhat technogenic entourage...

Here, city nervousness, sharpness surprisingly intersect – with rootedness in some most ancient cultural layers. Yanka seems to not even sing, but practice witchcraft – and she does not copy known standards, but just takes her skills from some primary source. Not that she revives – rather, gives birth anew to some mystic passageways between the world...

I would call this music hard blues – but do not get surprised when you hear in it surprisingly transparent trip-hop mood. It would seem that these both styles could hardly be called optimistic. Conditional minus. But, as it happens from time to time, minus to minus has given us an unexpected, but so warm, intimate plu...

The CD was very good, more atmospheric than Flëur's but with the same beautiful voice, and I think it's a very good album for anyone who likes Flëur.

Да, действительно неожиданно! Причем неожиданно хорошо :)
Полноценный альбом! Я думал, что пару песен будет хороших - и все.
Еще нравится, что и музыка, и тексты, и атмосфера довольно разные в каждой песне... положительное разнообразие!
Правда, неальбомный вариант "Жертвы" мне больше понравился.

Это восхитительно. Музыка волшебна, тексты вообще без комментариев.
Совсем не похоже на Fleur, жестче что ли, но это лично меня и привлекло.
Нужно слушать. Чего всем и советую)))

Дійсно, музика не зовсім схожа на творчість Олі в Flёur, але атмосфера близька. Тексти як завжди на висоті, звук якісний. Пісні дуже чуттєві, легкі, але для сприйняття потребують уваги слухача. Творчість гурту неможливо сприймати тільки як "темну", "похмуру" чи "світлу", "легку", що породжує певне відчуття реалістичності.

это словами не передать...
это нужно слышать...
чище и искренней песен я не слышал...
чувство, что поет прямо сердце
пробуждая реальные, а не воображаемые чувства... Огромное спасибо Оле за тексты, а Монстру за музыку. Жду продолжения..

дуже несподіваний альбом. Оля в групі співає таким "напівпридушеним" %) голосом, а тут така пантера! цікаво, дуже цікаво.

Приятно, когда журналист творчески использует пресс-релиз, а не просто рвёт на цитаты то, что подали ему в блюдечке с голубой каёмкой.
Хорошо работаете, спасибо!
