Contrabanda.com.ua continues plowing the pop rock field – and it again manages to do this at a high quality, deliciously, protuberantly. The new album is released in mid-winter, but its name hints at quite a spring mood – and the hint, it seems, is substantiated. If the debut work tended to "heavy blues", "Password: I Love" appears lighter, more romantic, transparent. However, it is still not the manner that has changed – one recognizes the group's sounding at once – it is the mood that has changed. It is not that the melancholy disappears completely – but the palette has become more colorful. Possibly, the point is that there are now more authors – the second album contains works by practically all participants of the group – therefore, naturally, there are now more tints. However, probably, everything lies in changes of the internal geography – only the musicians know this for sure. While another characteristic feature remains unchanged – there are songs both in Ukrainian and English (though, this time the English-language part makes up only one third of the disc). Anyway, the disc leaves a positive impression – as if you have breathed some fresh, fragrant air. And also – a light taste of the unsaid. I.e., to be continued.. By the way, "Don't You Waiting" has already become the best song of August 2009 in the "pop music" style according to the version of the American contest "Song of the Year" – http://www.songoftheyear.com/winners/2009/082009.htm

The ACOUSTIC program did not still become a full-fledged unplugged. The concert was also complemented by a group of strings, winds, percussion – in short, the sound turns out somewhat unexpected and very rich, the arrangements could not remain unchanged either. The habitual drive has not disappeared, though, it has shifted to a slightly different plane.

Is there any way to measure experience? Even supposing that it is the sum of answers, all the knowledge you have gained. And what if experience is measured not with the number of answers, but with the quality of questions? Vivienne Mort seems to glide on the surface of a mirror on the other side of its bottomlessness – and puts dark pearls straight to your lips..

..One can simply enjoy the concise arrangements with colorful spices. Or one can discover in these melodies, intonations, and pauses styling on the verge of grotesque. Or – one can hear stories that it is impossible to tell in any other way than this. Sentimental and ironic. And ask: why?

..when everything is good, nothing is left to do but just listen. With outstanding – which also matters – pleasure. This is the case when pop music is made so differently compared to most of the customary Ukrainian pop music that.. one can only express sincere gratitude.

..In the album, one can definitely sense Lama's branded style. Another characteristic is its folk melodies, the Ukrainian musical roots. It is built on harmonies of our people.

..the album is not homogeneous, it has both sadness and joy, and lightness, and twilight, and seriousness, as different expressions of the same – and beautiful – face. While there is no – fear, although words about fear still can be heard from time to time. However, everybody trying to follow his/her path honestly unavoidably reflects on that – and slender honesty can be felt in every song of the album.

It is difficult to explain this, because nothing has changed radically from outside. But somehow there is a persistent feeling that within this music there now sounds such confidence of one's own forces, ability to speak out simply, without superficial things – that it really looks like a new quality level.

There is a new and bright reincarnation in it, a new look at things, a new gentle nuance. It looks like a flower, each petal of which has a different colour or shade, which emphasises the depth of other colours.

Yanka Kozyr Orchestra not simply create music – they create their own mystery of sound, live and bright. And the music matter appears here so saturated, dense, enriched that it seems that it is visible, one can touch it, one can breathe it under water...

Talita Kum do not yield their habit – and this is good – to produce varicolored albums. "Show Business!" is again a kaleidoscope of moods, intonations, styles. From disco to rock-mainstream, from tender love lyrics to Freudian banter, from an unhurried ballad to spring drive – without ceremony.

...this music has its own face, and it, which is good, can hardly be characterized with just one term. Yes, the sounding is characterized by soft lyricism – this could be usual pop-rock unless sometimes it did not swing, say, to the jazz palette...

Sometimes – and you never know the next step this group will make - it is a real alternative. You see, an alternative simply means an open possibility of choice, an unlimited amount of possibilities.

...this album may serve far not only for dancing. Though it is announced as a dancing one, it is interesting and pleasant just to listen to it. As for me, it is here that Aljona Vinnytska has come very closely to her own format, correct exactly for her.
