Krymov Duo. Tam, de nas nemaje II. (Where We Are Not Present)

It is nice when at acquaintance you discover more than you expected – especially when expectations were great from the very beginning. Music by Lyudmyla and Myhaylo Krymov is just of this standard. Any concrete definition would seem too narrow here – even though such directions as new-age, fusion, jazz-rock imply a wide palette of sounds and technical tools. But here you will find all this – and something more, for what there are rather not names, but feeling. Due to which it seems quite obvious that classics, ethnics, jazz, electronics are not separate things but branches of the same tree. The more ramified and deep its roots are, the more magnificent and saturated its leafage becomes. And when, for example, Ukrainian lamentation intertwines in oriental ornamentations, and funk bass joyfully dances under Latin-American percussions – there appears not only beautiful music but also real magic. Krymov Duo charms, and charges, and gives rest – this is, if I dare, intelligent soft music. I mean that the serious technical mastery, virtuosity of performance do not burden, do not interfere with clarity of lines, lightness of fantasy. Having listened to this disc, you feel empty and saturated simultaneously – a strange but pleasant feeling.

BUDU band. Vydykh Vdykh. (2CD). /premium, eco-pack/. (Exhale Inhale)


...And – freedom, needed in treatment of the form and details. This is what this album is comprised of – well, and a jolt of haphazardness, to spell out in words the somewhat absurd lyricism of the world capable of joyfully and sadly beautiful acts. Even if it doesn't (?) make sense. Exhale and inhale, mind and heart, because otherwise – it does not work, it does not dance.

Laura Marti. Shine. /digi-pack/.


..on the one hand – the fantasy of jazz musicians. And on the other, all these laces of motions and patterns are thought over and embodied so confidently and easily that this ease allows one to not focus too much, but skip and let it go to the back of one’s mind right away. Instead, one listens to the main melodic line, the beauty and the flexible power of the voice..

Karbido, Yuri Andrukhovych. Absinthe. /super-pack/. (CD+DVD).


...a mysterious story of Stanislaus Perfecki – a poet, a traveler, and a performer who embarks upon a journey from Lviv to the West, and ultimately emerges in Venice, the City of Ghosts. There, he experiences a series of incredible adventures and falls in love with Ada Cytryna, his interpretress. Being forced to part with his beloved woman and unable to fulfil his special top secret mission, Perfecki vanishes..

Konstantin Kolesnichenko. Hypnotized! /digi-pack/.


..there are things that "penetrate" even without special training – and this album deserves attention no matter how well you're familiar with the blues. As it is played extremely deliciously – with appropriate conciseness, but not dryness. Because it is played by young jazz musicians, hence "Hypnotized!" has incorporated features of both blues and jazz..

Nino Katamadze, Insight. Green.


Very transparent, juicy, quiet and confident and yet full of irrepressible life – this is what this work appears like. Stylistically, it continues the trend including the albums "Black" and "Red" – the pure jazz-rock line, with no direct immersions into the lounge or symphonicity. But in a much softer, tender version.

Braty Bluzu. One Autumn Concert. (live). /digi-pack/.


First, "Braty Blusu" have long ago already – and absolutely deservedly – become a living legend of the Ukrainian jazz-rock. And, second – and this is, probably, even more important – the album is really good and interesting. Interesting, foremost, due to its ambiguousne...

Back Country. Reflection of Universe. /digi-pack/


I could say something about the reflection of the musical universe here, as several musical trends and styles got skilfully and gently entangled in this album. Still it seems to me that it would not be groundless to speak about the reflection of the Universe itself, as it is a musical stream, which is characterised by generality.

Enver Izmailov Trio. Minaret.


From ballads to dance, from folklore through art rock to meditation and jazz – I would call this world fusion, as a lot of roots from the whole world have intertwined here. However, all the plays have their common root: the basis is creative re-consideration of music of Crimean Tatars and other Black Sea peoples.

На мой субьективный взгляд - второй альбом несколько уступает первому по глубине и проникновенности, оставляя ощущение "записанного вдогонку". (возможно потому он дополнен лучшим треком "Магия" из первого альбома)
Но всё равно Крымовы - это Крымовы! Их надо слушать! Их надо Чувствовать! -)

Действительно, эта музыка рождается там, где нас, простых смертных, нет. Мелодии поражают сплетением нежности и решительности, как буд-то ноты сейчас сами вырвутся на свободу и полетят к небесам... Музыка играет с нами, то подпуская нас к раскрытию истины, то отдаляя от неё, погружая в неизвестность. Послушав раз, находишь в себе уверенность и целеустремлённость!

Первый раз услышал этот дуэт на джазовом фестивале в Коктебеле в этом году и был поражен их игрой. Полносьтю растворяешься в музыке и сливаешься с ней. Удивительно, что об этом дуэте я не нигде не видел и не слышал.

Что можно сыграть на скрипке и бас-гитаре? Оказывается, все! В этом убеждаешься с первой же вещи альбома "Там, где нас нет II". Виртуозный дуэт Крымовых можно без всяких скидок сравнивать с лучшими мировыми джазовыми коллективами. Легкость и глубина, чистота звука, неожиданные повороты и полное отсутствие занудства делают музыку Крымовых такой вкусной, что все время хочется добавки.
