DakhaBrakha is becoming more and more transparent, clear – direct, if I may. Not as direct as a log, but – as an arrow. This is similar to how wisdom needs to pass the complete path from the sophisticated to the simple – otherwise, nothing but the intellect will grow. And it is when naked – rather a dead weight... Here – otherwise. On the first album music of the group literally wiped the listener off, snatched him / her for a hot dance – because that was really some primitive burst of fiery energy. The second album was a studio one, and thus softer – but the basis remained the same. And here, "On the Verge" – in the music of DakhaBrakha the force of water is revealed very perceptibly, magic of quite a different level appears, intended for other purposes. That is, the first works were just to burn everything old, not able to live on – to clear the space. The new work – must feed the new, fresh relying on those roots that did not subdue to the action of fire. That verge from which creation of the new myth, new cultural alloy may start passes somewhere – at least, the album does create preconditions for this. Whether they will succeeded in cherish from it something truly green and flexible – this is a question for the future. But the fact that DakhaBrakha based on experience of its own creativity passes the way from the primordial chaos to harmonious creation – seems obvious. Do your eyes see?

..it seems that in the sense of music Perkalaba has returned to the wave it started from – but in fact this is essentially different music played with more or less the same instruments. Such a trick – so I advise you to listen very carefully. Maybe – you will visit the Mystical Theater of Shadows on Perforated Cardboard...

...with their own example the group perfectly demonstrates that serious sense of humor can lead far enough. It has already brought Sontseklyosh to a very tight concert schedule, wide recognition in not that really narrow circles, and now – to the second album as well. The album, believe me, is cool...

The familiar melodies will arise in an updated, sometimes unexpected form, unknown ones will have a chance not to be forgotten. Folk songs in the style of Mad Heads XL, the sound is based on modern ska-punk without clear style limits. Positive, good moods and frantic drive – all the best from Mad Heads XL now in folk songs!

"Integro" sounds very prudent, balanced – there is something special that makes it an album, and a strong one, not a collection of colorful pictures. As a flower that suddenly opens up in the middle of the night and – darkness becomes transparent, the air – cool and fragrant, and thoughts – pure...

On the one hand, everything is simple – it contains both a rich instrumental component, and the ethno-jazz-rock mixture with the psychedelic aftertaste, and, certainly, the magic seasoning of ancient language. On the other hand – everything is also simple: the soul was invested here, one can hear this – and, maybe, that is why the music penetrates so deeply...

...the album "Free" resembles that very puzzle, an element of mosaics that was lacking in order that the picture became integral, completed. It – disregarding, let me repeat it, the status of the debut one – seems to sum up some results, outline the visible and known space and, thus, free space for a step forward.

...the content of the album in the style aspect is ambiguous – but, definitely, interesting. This time to their branded ethno-chaos they have added quite a bit of very diverse elements: here you have soul, and D'n'B, and hip-hop, and art-rock, and almost jazz decorations. It appears cool.

Is the studio version different from the concert one? No doubt. Without disclosing all secrets, it is enough to say that it remains up to date to go beyond one language and one culture. In my opinion, the album represents the Ukrainian music, but the music which is done by the new generation. It is the product of the new world. The entire world.

First I listened to the Ojra’s records somewhere at the end of 90-ties, yet then it was the attempt to join the archaic and the up-to-date. The staff of the group changed several times since then, and they didn’t give up to search. Of course, a variety of creative paths they made gave its outcome: one of the best, I think, neo-folk records of all Ukrainian discography of the recent years.

In its foundation, the idea was simpler and defined as "ethno-cabaret" – that is, folk songs decorated with a music mix from any sorts of styles. Conditionally speaking, from northern dub to oriental blues. And as a result they conducted skilful retro-styling for NEP times (the New Economic Policy), that is for around the 1920s. And what appeared then – was a bomb.

The mosaic that results is as bright as deep – "Burdon" once again opens the beauty of old music virtually lost for large audiences. And, at the same time, throws a tank of oxygen into the flame of modern folk – let it burn brightly and not die away...

With their first album of 2006 "Good Night" DahaBraha not even entered – but broke into the music space, took roots and started growing actively. That was a live joy – both in itself, and because, in particular, the album consisted of recordings of the group's live performances. Now –crystallization takes place, and so you see the first studio album by the project.

I first encountered this band live and they really blew me away. I'm delighted to have them at home to enjoy at any time.

Good music - I listen to it a lot. Not quite as good as their earlier album (Jagudky ) but still more interesting than anyone in the UK is currently producing. One or two tracks do seem to be a bit derivative of their earlier work, though even with them there is sufficient development to make them worthwhile. It will be interesting to see how the group develops over time, whether they will fall into a rut or move their music on in some way.
