Telnyuk Sisters. Selected. (2CDs).

Personally I would like the creative activities of Lesya and Halyna Telnyuk to be much more popular and to become a part of mass culture. Fortunately, my wish may come true only if and when this mass culture changes and grows so much that it will have the right to be called a real culture. If that's the case, the music of such kind has a chance to become usual, ordinary and inconspicuous. Though, I must admit, it does not seem possible. It seems impossible not only because mass culture has its own laws and rate of growth, being oriented in this or that way not so much at cultivating taste as at making money. It seems impossible because the sisters always follow the way of constant self-perfection and it looks as if they had no inclination to turn off this way. In its turn, this fact means that they are practically doomed to be always aloof from a warm, comfortable and grey mainstream. They are also doomed to attract the attention of those, who look not only down but also wish to look behind the horizon, to themselves and to their creative activities. The sisters Telnyuk create musical canvases, which are filled with their personal space and have the depth of such quality that you may dive into them (the pictures) with your head and to live there, to breathe and to be engaged into real co-authorship. Still, if you meet them not for the first time, then you know that by yourselves. In that case you know some of those songs. But you should know that half of the songs of the album "Selected" – which is, by the way, a double one – have never been recorded before. Now we listen to them – and it is very good.

Vivienne Mort. Dosvid. /digi-pack/. (Experience)


Is there any way to measure experience? Even supposing that it is the sum of answers, all the knowledge you have gained. And what if experience is measured not with the number of answers, but with the quality of questions? Vivienne Mort seems to glide on the surface of a mirror on the other side of its bottomlessness – and puts dark pearls straight to your lips..

Vivienne Mort. Rosa. (EP). /mini-pack/.


..this music it saturated with some pristine but conscious magic. Vivienne Mort do not force themselves to release long-plays – but you would never say that their releases are unfinished, incomplete. On the contrary – these are really holistic, non-accidental expressions. Concise, yes – but is it a vice?

Luchanna, Anatoly Alexanian. 4/10. (EP). /digi-pack/.


This discs represents the last episode in the work by Anatoly Alexanian. It happened so that during the last days (none could know that those were the last ones), he productively cooperated with young singer and poet Anya Luchihina. They worked together on recording of an album of ten song...

Stoned Jesus. Seven Thunders Roar. /digi-pack/.


This is something new, born due to deep immersion into the old – perhaps, that is why the press release states: "Stoned Jesus play vintage rock in the best tradition of the '70s, inspired not only by heavy blues, early progressive and classical psychedelics, but even grunge, stoner and post-hardcore of the '90s"...

Telnyuk Sisters. Nazavzhdy. Bohdan-Ihor Antonych. (single). /digi-pack/ (Forever)


I will not thoroughly describe the recording for you – because I consider it pure beauty. It will show you everything itself – about tenderness, melancholy, and an insight, and the indescribable silence of words pronounced – and it will condemn none. Let it be so.

Anno Domini. Sand & Stone.


It is a good soft jazz, light and fancy, but not too variegated to hurt your eyes. I am sure that it will be pleasant to listen to this jazz even for those who do not listen to any jazz at all, as there is no cold intellectual philosophising in it.

Досить красиво, сподобалось майже все. Неперевантажені аранжування, гарний звук. Побоювався, що два диска разом буде важко прослухати, але ж нічого подібного, матеріал не одноманітний. За те й люблю компі ляції. Деякі. ;)
