Kontrabas. Kontrabas.

At present, as known, the composition and sounding of Kontrabass have changed quite considerably. Thus, the debut album is simultaneously rare evidence – there is no longer the Kontrabass that you have anywhere here, except for parallel alternative worlds. It is a pity to some extent – because that was cool. But not too much of a pity – because the present Kontrabass, having gone through transformations, has not become worse – it has become different. However, it is still too early to speak about results of the changes – in contrast to first conclusions. And the conclusions are such: in the space of young Ukrainian music, Poltava region is represented not too actively, and Kontrabass appeared here not that long ago. Therefore, it is even more pleasant that the fresh team at once announces its appearance so smilingly, colorfully – one looks forward for continuation. And not only because it is just interesting how the group will sound now, with the instruments of their own production. Continuation is expected because sincerity and high-quality simplicity that sound on the first album – do attract. This refers both to texts, and music, and moods – honestly, clearly, without pretension. Cordially.

Luiku. Yeher Mayster. /digi-pack/. (Yeger Meister)


Luiku is rather ironic dance music with a very pronounced folk component, the accelerated Ukrainian gypsy romance supplemented with Turkish, Polish, Romanian, and Hungarian lines. The music, besides being catchy (although there are also a couple of relaxed pieces), is also very, so to speak, convex.

Braty Hadyukiny. Made in Ukraine. /digi-pack/.


...this is about us. The ordinary people in the changing times, when it is both scary, and funny, and one wants to go faster, while – one needs to move carefully. Because nobody but us will live through these times for u... That's how it is put in the song "Play!": "Dad taught me – my dad, the last Jedi – play, play on your drymba, play the song of joy..."

Vasyl Hontarsky, Vasya Club. Hipan. (anniversary edition). /digi-pack/. (Hipster)


An anniversary  (10 years since the release) re-issue on CD of one of the most prominent Ukrainian rock albums. For the sake of this release, complete re-mastering of the material from the original master tapes was performed – and the original author design was restored.
Domestic price: 306.60UAH, International price: $21.90USD

Rura. Bdzhilka Mayja. (Maya Bee)


...it is possible to interfuse banter with sorrow – and not to be too keen on how that will be perceived from the positions of commercial success. It is possible to laugh loudly at pop-hits, and then to suddenly play such heartfelt lyrical poetry that even words will not be really needed – and to only care that both the first and the second things were done sincerely.

TIK. tyKhYJ. (Silent)


Consequently, the crisis of the second album has pass successfully – and was it ever there? The first thing that strikes one's eye is the change of the general mood. The first disc was saturated with positive, smiling – but sadness. The second disc is quite a different thing. "You love brandy cola, and I love wine, and it means that we won't be together anyway"...

Vasyl Hontarsky. Akustyka. (Acoustics)


This is simultaneously the simplest and the most complicated format – there is nothing but the guitar and voice, and you either sound or you'd better not even start... "Acoustics" is the last real album by Vasyl Gontarsky, the fifth one. No others will follow. If everyone left behind so fair traces – the land would shine under our feet...

Vasya Club, Vasyl Hontarsky. Rus‘kyy al‘bom. (Russian Album)


Strange as it may appear, but you’ll find a good deal of novelties on the disc – the songs that have never been released before. And personally I consider them to be just wonderful songs. Anyway, the famous works also warm the heart. This is like it often happens with cronies whose close relationship doesn’t depend on circumstances. All this makes not a compilation but an album of a full value with incredibly crystal, lyrical and high spirits.

Liapis Trubetskoy. Zolotye jajcy. (Golden eggs)


Their music is the mixture of everything that gets into your hands and is reinforced by a powerful and skilful spiritual section. You can find practically everything here, starting with grunge and ending with raggy, and all that is fully stuffed with Byelorussian outlook and sense of humour...
Domestic price: 208.60UAH, International price: $14.90USD

Vasyl Hontarsky, Yuriy "HoboT" Galinin. Vasya and Hobot.


The album is really queer, its style is "for one’s soul". To the question "for whose one?" we answer: a hippie’s one, whatever this word may mean. It is a man's dialogue with the air, when the woman has already left, but her image is still melting in the mirror. And you are in the middle of all that – what other explanations do you need? There is nothing. A hangover philosophical song.
