Boombox. Family business.

Quite soon after the first album, "Boombox" is launching the second one – and it is evident at once that the guys are quickly becoming adult. First, we remember, it was a sort of boyish positive thing, very emotional. Now – the positive is quiet, the optimism of people confident in what they do. I do not know what exactly influenced the group, but I no doubt like the direction of changes and the today’s result. Here, there is simplicity that has nothing in common with primitivism. Here, there is young but not blind energy – and it makes significant, purposeful steps. And you, the listener, walk hand in hand with it. Because there is accuracy of music solutions – and it means that you at once notice what you are listening to. However, the ease, elatedness that were inherent in music by "Boombox" from the very beginning have not disappeared anywhere now as well. It is, actually, a positive quality – to be able to speak about serious things easily and simply, not to chase oneself into corners. And difference of this music from usual pop lies somewhere there. Fashionable, but not luscious and sweet sounding – plus not empty texts – plus not a plastic smile.

Stereoliza. XYZ. (edition 2007).


This project, without exaggeration, has all chances to become in Ukraine one of the most interesting. "Stereoliza" combines pop music, elements of hip-hop, electronics, something of the disco mood – and the mix appears actual both for Ukraine, and, literally, for the whole of our round Earth. It by no aspects concedes to the best world pieces of the genre.

Novyj Chas. Leleky. (Storks)


Although at first sight it might seem that the album is soft and lyric – a strong spring is hidden there, inside. It seems to me that it is in the lyrics, and that it is the lyrics that lead the album ahead, compel one to listen attentively.

Zakhar. Jaka b ty ne bula. (Whatever You Might Be)


Zahar says that now he makes music of a new, own style. On our part, I can add that it appears as a mixture of hip-hop and rhythm-n-blues, plus light pop-melodiousness and modern dancing rhythms. Plus – expressive, eloquent manner of performance.

D.Lemma. ...ce nashe. (...it's Ours)


This group was founded not so long time ago but still it was loud ambitious at once. Anyway it was not without a good reason...

Vchid U Zminnomu Vzutti. Prosto.


It is very easy to “hook” your ear on the hip-hop by V.U.Z.V. First, there are no questions concerning the quality – it has appeared both sated and simple. And the second reason is the texts. Combination of cute jive and easygoing humor – the combination advantageous and rare.

Svizha4ok. Ukrajins‘ki muzychni novyny. (Ukrainian Music News).


The name obligates – thus, you will not find here news that were fresh two-years ago. If we do not take into consideration a couple of exceptions, here you have songs released strictly in 2007. Moreover – a few of the songs represented here were not released until now.

Oratania. Oratanija.


Oratania herself names her own musical style pazitiff rock – well, and others, mainly, determine it as pop-hardcore. Actually, that's somewhere there – in particular, because the texts of the group's opuses in no way fit serious attitude. The pink refrigerator, spiritsman, cop girlie – well, is it really possible with such song protagonists expect a reaction without a smile? Oratania does not expect that.

Boombox. III.


The third full-format album by Boombox group has all chances to appear the group's best one for today at the same time – at least, such feeling appears already from the first seconds. And that is logical – always sticking to, on the whole, the same stylistics, with every new step the group perfects quality of the material. Or let us say otherwise: Boombox tries to grow not wide but high above itself...
Domestic price: 37.70UAH, International price: $9.92USD

Mureny. Skhozha na osin‘. (Looking Like Autumn)


The main thing is to create high-quality music and to maximally enjoy the very process. They do succeed in that. Both in texts, and in music by the group, it is possible to hear sincerity without glossy sugar – nevertheless, externally everything sounds easily and naturally. Mureny are somehow able to keep the look of outsiders, but at the same time create interesting, not really unambiguous pop-rock.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Kviten‘ Ruin. Restavratsija. (Restoration)


The very first sounds with which this disc starts inspire quite a stable association with rock music of the 1960s and 1980s – actually, a pleasant association. But – and this is also pleasant – the style palette of the album is varied and saturated enough. That is, this is rock, in which there is roll, and hard, and art, and atmospheric poetry and just poem...

Druha Rika. Moda. (Fashion)


Valery Harchyshyn had an opportunity to acquire a refreshed look at life and its values, at creativity and its content – and he did make the best of this opportunity. It seems that here, this has finally happened – that maturing that was ripening in the previous albums by the group. If before one of the main colors was youth romanticism, now its place is gradually being occupied by simple, without fervor, glance in eyes.

SunSay. SunSay.


This album was about to become the third work of the band 5'nizza – but unfortunately, while working at the album the musical concept was changed so much that the group broke up. Nevertheless, on the basis of it there appeared a new project the front man of which is Andriy “Sun” Zaporozhets. So the name of it derived from the leader's one.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

S.K.A.I. S.K.A.I. Planet.


One of the most loved young groups in Ukraine, S.K.A.I., decided not to delay release of its second album too much – and was right. Because the new work not only does not yield to the debut one, but even excels it. Is this, as it seems, light rock again? – yes. But not quite so, because in this music rock weighs a bit more than lightness now.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

MRK. Zvezda s nebes. (Star from the Sky)


You will hear high-quality alternative pop-music. It means that here you find a mixture of bits of rock, hip-hop, funk, disco and half a dozen of styles more – but all that is served easily, confidently and convincingly.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Boombox. Trymay. (mini-album). (Hold)


Boombox is one of those groups, which have their own appearance from the very beginning. Therefore, they spend their time not to create some unique style, but to find new colours. And every time these colours get more and more intense – the proof is in front of your eyes.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

S.K.A.I. Te, scho treba.


...speaking about the music, it is still just melodious popular rock with simple, but not primitive arrangements. Actually, this it is simplicity that makes them to nicely attractive. The same is true about the text...
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Mandarin Raj. Podyvys‘ u vikno. (Look Through the Window)


And it is difficult to clearly define what the thing is, why exactly these songs warm you – but there lurks behind the external simplicity a sort of correct filling – unobtrusively, as a rain at night in summer...
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Flyzzza. Teplo za hodynu.


I confidently and strongly recommend. To everyone who likes positive music and smiling texts, as well as to everyone who lacks green light and to whom the doctor prescribed that and for whom this doctor subscribed – listen to "Flajzzza" group. Here, there is almost a bit of everything – and all this is brewed on reggae, folk and funk. It is very tasty.

Tanok Na Maydani Kongo. Syla. (The Force)


The first song of the album was written in Bordo last summer during the tour along Atlantic ocean's coast right after their previous release "Pozhezhi mista Babylon". With the song "Syla" ("The Force") a new album has began. Later it became clear the new album must have the same title. So, "Syla".
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Tanok Na Maydani Kongo. Pozhezhi mista Babylon.


It seems as if there were not less tricks in their songs, and the music had not grown fat, it had not developed a paunch, and the power of pressure had not disappeared anywhere. Everything is like that – and not like that. Besides youthful burning, you can feel a real adult confidence – in yourself, in your business, in the whole world.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Boombox. Melomania.


Here one can find a sonorous voice, a rhythmic lyricism and pride, which make all possible musical styles and devices to be mixed in one kettle, as well as the sense of humour, which, I hope, will not give the ground for putting this kettle at the pedestal.
Domestic price: 33.90UAH, International price: $8.92USD

Sergey Babkin. Motor. (Action)


His audience is growing if not with the speed of a lightning, then – incessantly. At that, in three directions simultaneously. One – the listeners who came to love his own songs. Second – the audience who keep track of his theatrical life (i.e. "Theater 19"). Third – readers who value interesting poetry.
