You see in front of you not just a disc but – history. This disc is a second release of the very first record by Vydubichi church choir made in the year of the collective's formation – that is in the already distant 1993. Moreover, exactly with this program in 1994 "Vydubichi" left for their first tour abroad – that was Belgium...

At some instant this sort of music simply divides the dense mass of the audience into a sum of separate selves – in order to reunite them later, but already at another level. Then this is no longer a crowd, then these are people... It is possible to say otherwise. In this music, beauty is dissolved – which you listen and hear staying alone with yourself, even if there is someone else around...

It is difficult to explain this, because nothing has changed radically from outside. But somehow there is a persistent feeling that within this music there now sounds such confidence of one's own forces, ability to speak out simply, without superficial things – that it really looks like a new quality level.

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...

this music sounds timely – although, possibly, the point is that it simply does not belong to any definite time. And for this reason, having no rigid anchors, it feels comfortable anywhere, in any surroundings. In the end, one can hear in it echoes of the rock heat of the 1960s, and passion of flamenco, and blues and jazz greetings, and the school of the classic guitar, and country...

...In the end, gratitude – is virtually the best thing that real, inspired creativity is able to bring to life. And in this case – it does bring it, because lights of the artist and the performers have met in harmony...

Probably, there is no need here for any additional explanations. All is simple: folk ballads are compulsory for listening. At least, if you think yourself part of the folk – and if you want to understand it from inside, through primordial creations, and not through crazy jaws of newspaper headlines.

For the style, music by Tak Treba could be conditionally defined as melodious hard rock – however, the group is not fixated on a certain style. For the content – we call such songs angry lyrics. However, there is certain specificity – because a girl is the author of the songs here. Consequently, angry things appear in some other light..

This collection is not one of those that reveal new names, its intention is different. Namely – to once again remind the long known, favorite songs. Look yourself – almost none of the performers represented here need superfluous recommendations or any additional promotion. The same is true about the songs.

Nobody knew when this would happen – and whether this would ever happen at all, for the silence lasted long. But – finally! – all albums by Iryna Bilyk of those times when she wrote and sang exceptionally in Ukrainian have seen their second release. And this, without exaggeration, is the golden fund of Ukrainian pop-music – its real glory and pride.

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.

We could say – Stelsi has succeeded, not losing its dance lightness, in creating a lyric, honest, rich in content album on a frisky crossing of very different styles. An album about life. Life is different – but, in any case, completely ours.

It is quite enough to just listen attentively to any pieces by Stankovych, from chamber to symphonic ones – and there are no longer any doubts: this man enriched not a nation – but humanity – with his creativity. The feeling is absolutely clear – the spaces that live in music by Stankovych breathe real grandeur.

If music of the album were not interesting, even then this release would be worth buying – for the sake of the booklet, because it is a separate transparent trip. However, we a lucky – the music also opens for us something new indeed. Or, maybe, you know other works in the style of "Carpathians new-age with elements of ethnic jazz"?

Surprisingly soft, lyric, even tender rock music wrapped in multiplayer electronic diaper... Absolute correspondence to the name of the group. So delicate balancing on that rim of a dream, where colors are childishly bright, but contours have already been washed out with lolling of quiet waves – it charms from the first second, as if petals of a night campfire. One feels it as rough warmth of a knitted sweater...

It is known that the name "Petrovychy" is not for nothing but because Petro is still the father of the majority of its participants. It is known that they are not ashamed at all to play under open-skies – that is why central streets of Ivano-Frankivsk accepted them long ago. As they play not just well, but even very well – they have already had time to become a real decoration and pride of the city.

...This time we can see appearance of something that, it seems, has never before happened in the space of modern Ukrainian music. It is difficult and even virtually impossible to call "Criminal Sonnets" a reaction to such phenomenon as modern Russian chanson (or simpler – the rogue song). It is not just more elevated, it is – even better – different. Refined and simple, grotesque and life-like at the same time...
