Izzet. Reggalia.

Even a year has not passed since the time when we found the first album of "Izzet" – and here you are – there’s the second one. As earlier, outwardly it looks like reggae, but inwardly - quite on the contrary. The explanation is that this album mostly contains not authors’, but folk songs – by the way, some of them were composed nearly 90 years ago! In that way we have an album of Tatar folklore arranged in the style of Jamaica folklore. All this sounds in an organic way, which is a sure sign of plasticity of Tatar language. For example, reggae would sound quite ridiculous in German – I am not going to offend anybody, but it is evident. Still, there’s another very important issue. What kind of reggae has everybody got used to? Everybody has got used to a light, relaxed and a bit superficial reggae. And here we feel a concealed resiliency, anxiety, inner force and melancholy. Besides, Eastern tunes attach very interesting nuances to this music. I think that all these things appear only due to the fact that all these songs are folk ones. Some kind of surprising and low-key expression is peculiar to them. But outwardly everything is quiet and light, because it is reggae. And it means that listening to this album somebody will have a good rest, while somebody will reflect on something. It is good.

Flyzzza. Hlobal'ne poteplinnya. (Global Warming)


Flyzzza is a very bright example of that people do not change, they just become deeper, wider, more precisely tuned. And if your true nature is being positive – in the course of time, there becomes only more of it. Anyway, Flyzzza manages to not just go in this direction – to literally fly, touching the ground only with smile-heel...

The VYO. Ganja. /digi-pack/


...all songs of the album were restored – because their recording took place as long ago as in 1995-98. Such a rarity debut. However, fortunately, rarity is not its only virtue. Having listened to the disc one realizes that Ukraine is not as distant from Jamaica as they tell us at school and in the news. At least, some of our clouds do have similar form...

Mad Heads, Mad Heads XL. Najkrascha myt'. Best Hits and Ballads. (The Best Instant.)


If first Mad Heads were among the brightest stars of psychobilly in the world, now Mad Heads XL are real stars of the new Ukrainian rock format. And historically it happens so that fans of Mad Heads and those of Mad Heads XL somehow intersect quite rarely. So, maybe it is worth trying?

Izzet. My Security.


There exists the word “reggae”. This is a musical style. Philosophy. Religion. The way of living. Myth. Fairy-tale. Reality. Really unreal reality. Rest. Inner work. So much inner that it even looks as if they were a continuous rest...

Yuriy Kovtun. BraviBelli.


...the album at once creates elated, festive mood – but in a surprising way. In the correct way. Because, although about a half of the compositions can hardly be called merry ones – a smile is very expressly felt in them. Somewhere dim, somewhere transparent, somewhere dreamy, somewhere thoughtful – but it is present in each piece, and it warms.

Studio theater "Arabesque", Kharkiv Klezmer Band. Radio shanson: visim istorij pro Juru Zojfera. (brochure + CD).


...if we could hear what we say – probably, we would keep silent. But – we do speak. And what is then left for our words but for the echo of our pace? What is then left for our eyes but for memory? And who are we then if not prophets? – for we walk in a circle, that is why we as though know everything in advance...

Second Breath. Save the Blues.


Second Breath is a Kyiv group that has been playing blues for 40 (!) years already. It is quite possible that this is the oldest active blues band not only in Kyiv, but also all through Ukraine. Or, maybe, through considerably wider territories – who know...
