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 Ruslanas 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 anybodys opinion youd 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.

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.

I have to agree with with the statements before me! Pop-rock mixed with a flavor of folk music gives a great flavor to the music and vocals. I just want to dance when listening to this album! I recomend this album to
everyone I see. As for the english songs..I have no problem understanding the songs, I have been doing english for 50 years now ;-)). My hat is off to the lovely Ruslana for doing songs in english! For me ,Ruslana is my number one listening pleasure!

I enjoy hearing music by Ruslana. She is a highly talented performer.
I truly hope that she will perform in Italy too. I have lots of Italian friends who would like to see Ruslana perform Wild Dances in Italy.
Wildest regards,
Manuel

Really unique use of rythms and folk influences for contemporary pop music. It deserves to be considered much more than just "dance" music. (Paul Simon got a lot of recognition for adopting African influences.) I would never have heard of Ruslana if I hadn't visited Ukraine last year. We miss a lot of important international artists in the US. Ordering direct from this site was quick and easy.

Another nice addition to my Ruslana collection.
It would be nice to see a DVD from her with a Live Concert and Video Clips of her Hits.
Ruslana is a real Mega Star...

Ruslana. A name evryone should know when they think of superb dance music! Ruslana's tracks are energetic, passionate and raw. Each song evolves into the next, almost as if one long piece. The album is put together very well, and has a few bonus-track remixes twoards the end. Ruslana's energy is in full throttle on tracks such as "Wild Dances," "Dance With the Wolves," "The Same Star," "Play, Musician" and "Like a Hurricane." Although Ruslana looses a bit of her appeal whilst singing in English, the tracks are nevertheless thouroughly enjoyable! This album will be a gem in anyone's music collection!
*I also reccomend supplemeting this album with the other Ruslana albums. They all go together quite nicely.

Verry good cd, but the original Ukraine version is better, I personaly don't like the (Swedish produced) new songs not as much as the ones they replaced (from the Ukraine "Wild Dances" cd). But still, great singer, great songs, great personalaty. Ruslana is my singer-princes!
THe calender looks very nice!
