Viktor Krysko. Cinema graffiti. The best of movie music. /digi-pack/.
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. But – in the both cases it is Viktor Krysko as violin improviser who works at the intersection of folk, jazz, and classical music. Well, and the album "Cinema Graffiti" introduces us to his somewhat different hypostasis. That of a composer. The fact is that in parallel Viktor works as the chief sound engineer at one of Ukrainian TV channels – due to that, he had the opportunity to try himself in the field of creating music for several TV films. Actually, this disc is a compilation of the sound tracks he recorded. And here it is worth noting two aspects. First, Krysko the composer appears no less versatile than Krysko the violinist. Second, despite the principle of compilation, the disc "Cinema Graffiti" really resembles an album – after all, we refer to mosaic patterns as pictures rather than random accumulations of pieces of smalt. Yes, the album is characterized by fragmentation – objectively speaking. But it may be, at the same time, both a forced step, and a natural part of the concept. Everything is done so that "Cinema Graffiti" appears like a series of flashes, and virtually each of them refers to something secret, intimate and light in the soul of the listener. And even some dark flashes are not so contrary to the general making but rather highlight it...

Alloise. Episodes. /digi-pack/.


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.

Gutzul Magik Foundation. Molfar. /digi-pack/.


"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..

Alex Nademski, ILLaria. Podykh. /digi-pack/. (Breath)


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.

Dark Patrick. Rise of the Underworld. /mini-pack/.


..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...

DOK. DVA. /digi-pack/.


"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...

Mamanet. Ki-Mono.


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.

NimB. NimB.


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..

Tomato Jaws. Reconstructed. /digi-pack/.


Thus, this album is a collection of already known but updated compositions by Tomato Jaws. Thus, not only Ukrainian friends of the project, but also international ones – as Tigerskin and Steve Jones, involved themselves into the update. Another remix was thrown by a participant of the Kyiv trio, Pavlo Lenchenko aka Playone. Plus – four tracks were prepared by the hosts – Tomato Jaws.
