Fusion Orchestra. Octagon.
There is such a place near the city of Sevastopol – it is called the cape Fiolent. The coast there is swift, steep, cut by the sea – and very picturesque. And the sea there... They say that only Greek fishers can see similar beauty behind the window – the water is so transparent that sometimes you want to breathe it. And then it seems to me that it is with breathing of this very great water – salty, free, clean, powerful – that the new disc by Fusion Orchestra is saturated. It is great pleasure – to listen to music that has let in, changed, satiated and breathed out so many bright impressions, lives, roots... When music is wide open – everybody can drink from it, see one's face in it, find in its one's real. Fusion Orchestra very delicately appeals, for example, to Greek, Tatar (and not only) motives – you rather not hear but feel this ethnic constituent, and you feel it so sharply that blood quickens its run, asks for sun and salts... The next instant someone strange comes, rain comes after him, and it sings so that everything around – disappears, dissolves gradually, and only you remain – and rain – and its transparent singing, so comfortably and softly... And then – a new wave, and the oriental wind clings with its mouths to hot tan – and breaks into a tense dance without sides and without the bottom, without hope, and for this reason it – only it, hopeless – will be able to bring you to the shining coast, pass through emptiness. And soon all of a sudden you get in water of the night city, in which thirst and search are more real than houses, people, meetings... In the acid jazz wave each sound has color, every melody – its smell... Yes. As the sea always has a wave or two in store, so the album of "Octagon" – does not get tired of changing faces, moods, tints, break rhythms and ideas of... But behind all that – the strongest water is felt. The one that unites, quenches thirst, washes. The one without which life is impossible. At least, here.

Anno Domini. Galilee.


If we begin from the end, we could do it so: this is a wonderful, heartfelt, clear, high-quality album – and at present this is the best album in the reserve of Anno Domini. All previous experience, all best qualities acquired new depth here, started shining with new colors. And if we begin from the beginning...

Fusion Orchestra. Apocrypha.


Yes, in this music you can still hear well the hot southern sun – but still, on the foreground, you have original cool elegance. And one can feel based on which law the space of the disc is designed: rather not to satiate, but to extend this space as much as possible – but softly.

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.

Motion Trio. Pictures from the Street.


It seems to me that none who has at least once heard performance by Motion Trio – and the more so none who has seen it – will ever forget, mix it up with anybody. And the thing is not only original composition – although you will hardly find among performers of jazz, art rock, folk fusion another trio what would consist exceptionally of accordions.

Er. J. Orchestra. On the Hill Again. (special CD+DVD edition).


Sure, Er. J. Orchestra is one of the most interesting Ukrainian projects in the domain of ethno-fusion today. And not only Ukrainian ones. Actually, this music is so organically intertwined into the world sound fabric – it is impossible to limit it with any borders, geographic or stylistic, etc.

Er. J. Orchestra. Gabrielius.


Only natural things can be like that – the sea in any weather, a streamlet somewhere in the mountains, the eyes of a horse or a deer, a green greeting of an old willow, a smile of an infant …

Mlada. O vesna, vesna. (Oh spring, spring)


Are you interested in Ukrainian folk songs? Fine. And what about jazz? Or, may be, some ethnic music would be all right? Eastern or Western? Or, may be, you prefer classical string quartette – a violin, a violin, a viola, a violoncello? Still may be, wouldn’t it be better to listen to a light trip-hop? Or may be art-rock – a light one? Then, I think, everything is understandable – all that is exactly here and exactly now, besides, there is something else.
