(item from the "Rare Discs" section) With these songs, Ruslana not just loudly declared herself and Ukraine – she actually vanquished Europe. At least, in the end of May, 2006, they conducted a poll – and Ruslana’s song "Wild Dances" was recognized as the best song during the whole history of the "Eurovision" contest (51 years!). It was not some board that recognized that, but usual spectators and listeners all through Europe. So, the thing here is the issue most valuable for a performer – recognition by people. It seems that it can justly be called the triumph. However, it is not necessary to take into account anybody’s opinion – you’d better listen yourselves. Ruslana suggests a new perspective of popular culture – actually, as of a version of culture, and not just some consumer goods. At least, pop-music may become such – sated with historical, cultural associations and transformations, reconsiderations. Pop-music is also able to rely on deep ethnic roots. And Ruslana convincingly shows what powerful results can be achieved when making this kind of steps. Anton Yozhyk Leyba (Hedgehog)

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.

What a fantastic cd, Ruslana has a total unique style of her own and its great.
The cd is packed with great songs, great beats, great lyrics.
The new single Same Star is the best track on the cd and should be a monster hit across the globe.
Would highly recommend this cd to anyone its FAB.

This album, and Ruslana herself, are far better than anything we have here in the USA. You can feel her passion for singing, for her country and its culture, and for her heritage in every song.

This album works well in the English-speaking world primarily because Ruslana sings in English on most of the tracks. It makes sense for her to broaden her markets - especially because she deserves success world-wide. There are top-quality, world-standard songs on this album. "The Same Star" and "Like a Hurricane" are hit potential. I've said it before - Ruslana should tour (maybe one day we'll see her in Australia!!).

First I was so impressed by the umka site that I could hear samples of Ruslana's CD first before ordering and then the ordering from Ukraine was flawless and now I am able to have my soul re-invigorated every day from Ruslana's up-beat tempo and original lively Ukrainian music. Its a must hear for anyone on this planet.

The English version of Wild Dances, and a brilliant introduction to Ruslana's music which is fantastic. From this album I started listening to the Ukrainian CD's and you really are able to to do `pigeon' translation of some of the Ukrainian versions once you have picked up on the tunes which she also sings in English. An excellent introduction to Ruslana.

I'm fan of Eurovision Song Contest where I have discovered Ruslana.
Her music is full of energy and very original. I like THAT sound. It's a very good CD.
Also, thanks to internet and Umka to give the opportunity to order music that is difficult to find in some countries.
