Albums:

Tartak. Pershyj komercijnyj. /digi-pack/


...on the one hand we have renewed arrangements of famous compositions – but on the other hand we have the quality that does not storm from without, but sprouts inside of a listener...

Tartak. Zaklipani pisni, abo Bachyly ochi scho kupuvaly. (Clipped Songs, or the Eyes Saw What They Bought)


"Tartak" is now, presumably, one of the most energetic Ukrainian projects – in the both senses. Both in musical one, because this semi-crazy fest of motion and rhythm started a few years ago and lasts until now, not losing its intensity. And – in the sense of recording.

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.

Huljajhorod, Tartak. Kofein.


The new variant, I think, is to unite those who liked "Guliaygorod" at once – and those to whom it then seemed a bit too hard. Because the engine remains as powerful as before, besides the specificity of aerodynamics are now taken into account in the outlines, they have become smoother and swifter, but inside there are now much more cozy nooks. Result – both the speed and comfort have grown.

Tartak. Nazbyralosya na 2010. /digi-pack/. (Collected for 2010)


...The updates are not so radical that it is impossible to recognize originals – but, on the other hand, the sound nature appears surprisingly diverse. Since a good deal of styles are mixed here, the key common feature of all the tracks is not a certain style but high energy value. Actually, it always happens with Tartak.

Tartak. AnTARTAKtyda. Part 2. /digi-pack/. (AnTARTAKtica)


The album sounds as if Sashko Polozhynsky has once again discovered his second breath. There is experience, there is comprehension and awareness – but there is also a vivid, direct response to the world around. And the key feature of the new work is virtually its sparkle, reckless and sober at the same time. Self-irony in action. Without significant illusions

Z Novym ROCKom! Jam FM. (Happy ROCK Year!)


We should admit, the collection has appeared to be great – it is not just pleasant and interesting to listen to. It gives multiple occasions to be proud of that Ukrainian rock music, in spite of the frequently scornful attitude on the part of mass media, still not just lives on – but becomes more and more diversified, deep, strange, high-quality.

Try ljubovi Stepana Bandery. (DVD). (Three Loves of Stepan Bandera)


For the first time in history: on the video - Stepan Bandera live. A unique chronicle of the war and post-war periods that captured Stepan Bandera and his sworn brothers and opponents is used in the video film. What role did women play in life of the Ukrainian leader?
Domestic price: 250.60UAH, International price: $17.90USD

Mazepa fest. Poltava 2008.


This one is a really powerful record – the best of the series. And, definitely, one of the best rock albums in general for the last couple of months. Besides, it presents a number of songs that haven’t had any official release yet – that’s exclusive!

Yevshanzillya 4. Rock Collection 2010. (mp3).


In 2010, following the tradition now, "Yevshanzillya" (already for the fourth year in succession) has become the first rock collection in the New Year. And, again as usual, the main focus is not on pop-rock and heavy alternative – as it happens in the majority of rock collections – but on a wide range of every other rock music.
