Okean Elzy. Veseli, brate, chasy nastaly... (single). /mini-pack/. (Merry Times Have Come, Brother...)

This single of the group "Okean Elzy" is something much more than just promotion or charity, or any other trick. It is the first signs, for which all old admirers of the group have already been waiting so long that they almost no longer hoped to finally see it. It is a song with which Vakarchuk and "Okean Elzy" reject the already habitual image of an oppressed lyrical character – and takes quite a precise personal and social position. In my opinion, only thus creativity of the group can turn into real pure rock, without impurity and compromises. Here, the topic is no longer unhappy love. Here, the issue is freedom. More than that, the desire and ability to defend one’s freedom, to consciously struggle for it. If Svyatoslav Vakarchuk keeps his word and the whole next album of the group is created in the same spirit – "Okean Elzy" will have all chances to make a real revolution. As lately nobody of Ukrainian rockers has released an album with up-to-date social songs – everyone has concentrated on music, texts have faded into the background. And merry times have come, indeed, – so, most likely, it is no longer possible to deal without lyrics. And let them be right...

Vopli Vidopliassova. Chio Chio San. (single). /digi-pack/.


The new work by VV managed to cause a lot of agitation even before the official release – and that was absolutely deserved. This refers both to the song, and the video for it – Oleg Skrypka and his friends are not afraid of subjecting themselves to creative experiments, that is why the video "Chio Chio San" for many became a real surprise..

Tartak. Ukrajino, Zabyvaj! (maxi single). /digi-pack/. (Ukraine, Score It!)


The variations differ from each other so much that you have nothing to do but be surprised – this sounds similarly cool with Balkan themes, and with electronic funk, and in other versions. Thus, I think, this disk can interest not only fans of "Tartak" but considerably wider audience as well.

ManSound. Hymn of Ukraine. /mini-pack/. (State Anthem of Ukraine)


All the three versions of the Hymn are variations in the range from gospel and soul to swing – and, to tell you the truth, all the tracks sound just cool. Common sense seems to prompt that we should expect for a skeptical attitude to this kind of experiments. But, dear guests, I insist – the disc is a very qualitative, joyful, live present for all admirers of jazz.

Ruslana. Dyka enerhiya. (single). /slim box/. (Wild Energy)


For some time Ruslana, it seemed, had disappeared somewhere – but it has appeared that she had not. It has been revealed that she just – well, certainly – prepared a new powerful explosion on the plane of the domestic ethnic pop. Well, and now – the first robin, the first powerful explosive bullet – here you are!

Esthetic Education. Leave Us Alone.


From the very beginning these people promised that they would compose a high-quality European music, and to my mind it is exactly the thing they are busy with at the moment. This maxi-single, I think, is another confirmation of this fact.

I supported the orphanage as well.

З кожним словом і акордом "Веселі брате часи настали" росте переконання, що Славко Вакарчук написав щось на зразок "Заповіту" Шевченка. Як чудово знати що є людина, яка дихає і думає з великою частиною свого народу в унісон. Це оптимістична і змістовна річ. Якби він нічого більше не написав - цього було б достатньо. Слухаю часто.

Це просто диво, створити таку пісню, такий текст написати, треба бути справжнім майстром свого діла. Славко найкращий!!!

Слава Богу! Це те, чого не вистачало. Коли здавалося мені, що я один, що я "окремок" , приятель прислав мені по е-мейлу цю пясню і справді стало світліше. Там є все, а найголовне це - там є НАДІЯ!
Ми переможемо! Ми вже не ті.

Боже Великий Єдиний, храни Автора.
Такий текст, така сила. З часів Тараса мало чого подібного було.
Знімаю капелюха, низький уклін. Коли є такі пісні і такі молоді люди -
ми маємо Надію!
