Kuku Shanel. Polubelaya-poluchernaya. (2CD). /digi-pack/. (Semi-White/Semi-Black)
From the first second of hearing the sounding you realize: the new project by Maria Kudryavtseva (ex- "Bozhychi" and "Soncekliosh") is not something "occasional", it has its own atmosphere. A different one. Definitely tasty – if European model street chanson is to your taste, if you like a somewhat cinematographic style with a subtle nod to the 1920's and 1930's. However, there is also enough soft naughtiness on other topics as well. This is stylish music, and not only due to the nice pastiches. Everything is just done simply – in the good sense, when the output sounds so easy and smiling that you never think about the previous hard work. The basic composition is only four musicians, but due to good arrangements this music appears really rich, with lots of petty but effective decorations. Another very important advantage – that's, actually, the lyrics. True poetry – live, ambiguous, ironic, somewhere deep, somewhere capricious, in any case – interesting. The album consists of two discs: the first one – in Ukrainian, the second one – in Russian. Perhaps, it was a fundamental point – not to mix – but as a result one drink all of it bottom up with great pleasure. Sipping, slowly, because – it is delicious..

Retroskop. Vesnyany tvist. /digi-pack/. (Spring Twist)


Love to simple beauty – that is, probably, what in due time conditioned emergence of the "Retroskop" band. And it should be noted that their liking for the music of the 1950s-60s was noticeable not only in performance of "classics of the genre"...

Oleh Skrypka. Zhorzhyna. Bohdan Vesolovsky songs. /digi-pack/. (Dahlia)


"I consider that the "retro" style, in which the album "Dahlia" is performed, is elegant – Oleh Skrypka says. – Moreover, jazz, tango, foxtrot, swing are generally considered European and overseas genres, and with this project I want to demonstrate that our country as well has its own rich, unique and high quality music history."

The VYO. Zeleny. /digi-pack/. (Green)


With this music – there are all the chances to swim to the summer almost unnoticeably, without straining where this is not needed. Ukrainian reggae with a mischievous smile and a hardened core. Just put on repeat – so much so that your hand reaches out for that – and you should not interfere with it.
Domestic price: 306.60UAH, International price: $21.90USD

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.

Ot Vinta. Pilotka. /digi-pack/. (The Forage Cap)


..there is so much drive that one can hardly believe its "acousticity". And one of the causes of such sound is the truly rich set of instruments used by the musicians during the recording (guitar, banjo, harmonica, kazoo, ukulele, flute, kozobass, xylophone, etc.). Very rich and bright – just like always with "Ot Vinta"..
Domestic price: 390.60UAH, International price: $27.90USD

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..."

Dzidzio. The super-popular album HaHaHa.


..the sound of Dzidzio, to some extent, can be seen as witty banter with reference to the early Skryabin – but, since it's music with a smile, do not look for the neoromantic haze here. Rather, it resembles ironic exercises by Braty Hadyukiny. And if you look a little bit closer, songs by Dzidzio resemble kolomyika...

Vpershe Chuyu. PryamoTok. /digi-pack/. (ForwardFlow)


As far as we know – this is the first album in Ukraine (at least, among officially released ones) dedicated to bikers. Dedicated not only formally, but also thematically. However, the disc "Biker Sich" has been released just recently – but it was a collection of favorite songs, not the author's dedication album. A significant difference.
Domestic price: 208.60UAH, International price: $14.90USD

TIK. Vesilny. (Wedding)


...the trademark self-irony is still there. To make sure – the first song from the album will be enough. Though, indeed, the rest of the songs also meet this sort of a definition: irony plus clownery. Need I say that both the first and second are not limited to smiles and jokes, subtle and not too subtle?

Braty Hadyukiny. Schaslyvoi dorohy! /cassette/. (Good Riddance!)


Audio cassette/ ..The forth album of Hadiukiny. Grown-up album.
Domestic price: 194.60UAH, International price: $13.90USD

Antin Mukharsky. Snizhana Yehorova. Village Glam. /digi-pack/


It is very cool that Antin Muharsky has not abandoned his field research of rural glamour in the Ukrainian context. Moreover – it seems that he has decided to undertake for this good cause a real family contract. But the main thing is that Muharsky has again succeeded in adding to the dozen of songs of the album a double portion of positive pepper..

Antin Mukharsky. Zlokohoochy Man.


Actually, once such songs were characteristic of only one country in the world – but since then the Earth has become considerably more rounded. Consequently, maybe, there is nothing strange in that we observe appearance of sheer Ukrainian songs in the country style. In the end, we have appropriate landscape...
