"Astarta" band offers us ethno-pop-rock – admittedly, high-quality one. Actually, the girls themselves are capable of lots of things – and since Eduard "Dilya" Prystupa began patronizing them, they started evolving rapidly. Actually, no surprise – Dilya has long been interested in such projects, and he has already had successful experience, e.g. with Rosava when working on her first album "Under the Open Sky". There is enough taste for experiments, freedom in addressing various style devices is also something that there is enough of – as a result, we have a truly bright album. In particular, because – despite the expressly folk performance manner – most of the songs here are authors' ones. The combination of the authentic manner with contemporary texts creates an interesting impression – a very nice cognitive (pardon the expression) dissonance takes place. Reinforced with a handful of the "nice to hear", minor but delicious moments. Thus, one wishes to listen attentively – and what more do you need?

..Eventually, the debut album by Arlett generally somehow avoids excesses, sticks to certain mainstream – which, incidentally, has its zest. It is read as being without a mask, simple expression, a sort of a light conversation. Due to which, probably, there will be a chance and the will for a deeper conversation.

"Gouache" has already become one of the most noticeable and interesting recent novices. The guys immediately set the goal of, so to speak, "western" quality – and they are successfully implementing their objective. Everything went right: having heard songs by "Gouache", our audience frequently fails to believe that it is a purely Ukrainian product sounding.

The group says about itself that in the search for its own style it arrived at funk with jazz – and afterwards added into the mixture blues, Brazilian and Hutsul ethno, and not only that. The search continues, windows are open. Suggestions are being accepted. In the end, it is really so – here, it is possible to hear a mixture of "everything with everything", but the mixture is sustained, not aimless eclecticism.

...the thoughts which are a bit difficult for uttering by forceful recitative. The thoughts which require an unhurried development in the form of emotions and intensive examination at different shades of light. The thoughts which look more like the shadows of thoughts, the track of rash silver fish which have flashed by somewhere in the depth...

A music of NeDilya group has very kind, light and positive mood. It is not of any particular style but it has well-defined direction – from heart to heart.

Cooperation of Astarta (a side project by Eduard Prystupa) with Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree bass-player) is just an example of such quality implementation of ideas, when first you do not even try to understand what the essence is, but just listen. Listen carefully, because it is delicious.

...Ukrainian authenticity is primarily the mystical energy of the earth and the complete harmony with the space. This is very powerful music! The new disc by ILLARIA is a kind of a calendar of Ukrainian music traditions. It includes cover versions of well-known folk songs based on authentic archival records.

...arrangements of this album very relevantly intertwine Ukrainian melodies with folk tunes of other nations. The palette is very broad – from klezmer and to gospel – and that, you know, positively impresses. Definitely – "Alibi" grows over itself, and grows in an interesting way.

Careful attitude to derivative material, interesting arrangements, general saturation of the musical component with various optional but so appropriate decorations – all of that is here. And all of that makes the album "Christmas for Two", maybe, one of the best pop-albums devoted to the theme of Christmas during the several recent years.

...the disc combines such directions as ambient, lounge and classics. The result – orchestrated melodies accompanied by sounds of nature and modern electronic rhythms, the easy and cheerful atmosphere of leisure. Besides, all of that is also seasoned with ethnic colors – not too thickly, but pleasantly.

"Amazon" became the messenger of changes – though interesting but still a test of forces, reconnaissance of other territories. Now this is obvious, because "Wild Energy", in its turn, is a weighty result of those very deep quality transformations. The disc should, obviously, become the head stone in creating the image of a new Ruslana – and it has everything necessary for that. This is really another quality of music, and not only music.

The project "Make Merry, Youth!" is an attempt to connect in the ethno-pop music genre reconstructed samples of folk and professional traditions of the center and east of Ukraine, use authentic music instruments, playing techniques and sound scales for their full-fledged introduction into modern youth culture. And also – to make the ear of a wide audience of listeners used to the new timbre...

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!

Rhythms of "Osiayni" bewitch with their soft, silent pace. Marta, in her turn, also obviously appears here not by chance. Her voice has a very interesting feature – it somehow inexplicably combines in itself the past and the future. It seems to be native – and somehow not from here.
