Z Novym ROCKom! Jam FM. (Happy ROCK Year!)

Jam FM is the Kyiv radio wave on which exclusively rock music of Slavic bottling is broadcasted. Mainly Russian and Ukrainian, sure. This is, in fact, virtually the only FM station well known here having such specialization. That is why it is fully logical that it is these people who have ventured creating the Ukrainian "rating collection of the best non-pop music" – which is, actually, indicated on the cover to the disc. And, we should admit, the collection has appeared to be great – it is not just pleasant and interesting to listen to. It gives multiple occasions to be proud of that Ukrainian rock music, in spite of the frequently scornful attitude on the part of mass media, still not just lives on – but becomes more and more diversified, deep, strange, high-quality. This refers both to mainstream and more poignant, radical directions – it seems we are reaching already the critical mass when a real breakthrough of this music will become possible at all levels of the information space. If only it happened soon...

Mlyn. All-Ukrainian Music Collection. /digi-pack/. (Mill)


...However, they thus somehow fit into the concept of "ethno-rock" – but nevertheless the entire picture comes out very colorful. And – it is nice that within the same style one can hear so diverse, unconventional, brilliant music.

Sashko Polozhynsky. Po-Vilno. /digi-pack/. (S-Law-ly)


Sashko Polozhynsky, as a modest person, did not print his name on the cover of this album – because he did not perform as a singer in this case (except for, it seems, only one song). But – he is the author of the idea, the producer, the sole jury selecting the songs, etc.

The Best Ukrainian Ballads. P.3.


See yourself what a wide styles palette is offered by the collection: pop-rock, reggae, art-rock, hip-hop, folk-rock, heavy blues, post-rock... Nevertheless, the disc looks integral – there is a certain inner line that truly unites, links such, seemingly, different approaches to creativity.

"Rok-Sich" Festival.


...the collection was compiled skillfully – the recording house "Kraina Mriy" is experienced in doing that. As a result, it is really interesting to listen to it: familiar pieces alternate with quite fresh ones, known groups – with those that are now only gaining speed. And two basic features unite all of these songs – good quality and inflammatory energy.

Mazepa fest. Poltava 2008.


This one is a really powerful record – the best of the series. And, definitely, one of the best rock albums in general for the last couple of months. Besides, it presents a number of songs that haven’t had any official release yet – that’s exclusive!

Re:evoljutsija. (Re:evolution)


...there are quite a lot of talented musicians in the alternative, indie-direction here. And among those represented in the collection – there are such that no doubt deserve, at least, European recognition. However, you'd better make sure of that yourself.

Mazepa Fest – 2006.


Every year Mazepa Fest becomes more interesting and varied – this is obvious. It is pleasant to observe that in Ukrainian rock music there appear more and more expressive faces that are worth paying attention to.
