Teneta. Kokso-rock.

Teneta Group originates from Krivy Rih, and it has been already existing for about 10 years. Recently, it has demonstrated itself to its best at festival competitions – in particular, at the "Taras Bulba" festival. The group's composition has changed several times during these years – and it is rather a pity that the French horn no longer sounds here, as it used to. However, the limited composition – three musicians – dictates the need of playing distinctly. Otherwise, it will make no sense. At present, Teneta cope with the task well – you now see the proof in front of you. The group manages to play the alternative without applying open sound aggression. The atmosphere is created not due to external drive, but by internal accumulation of tension. The rhythm section sounds quiet, confident, without superfluous motions – and for this reason it magnetizes attention. The bass plays the leading role here. The solo guitar adds transparent colors, but this is rather a spice, not the main course. The basic source of emotions is the vocal. Somewhat innerved and as though a bit tired, simultaneously phlegmatic and ready to explode – as a result, out of the two possible options it chooses the third one. Thus, Teneta makes music that in its essence is non-conformism, in its form – the minimalist alternative, and all that together creates the impression of consistent, conscious "screw it all". That is – when you understand but do not really care. Interesting mixture, sure.
