"Toto & Seasons" - "Sparkles"

Former lead singer of "Stupid White" Yegor Lions and DJ Longli published very strange "to awaken." Album Izmiksovav in pieces familiar from childhood voice and electronic hits, they put their own text and voice - to get something. To whom do not know who to approach and how. On the one hand it is nice, the voice of Yevgeny Leonov "Kin-Dza-Tzu" in decent musical presentation, a kind of postmodern hear salad. But somehow it does not fit there ... On the other hand, in a spirit of total opopseniya unforgettable DJ Groove in this approach is not observed. The guys were like obviously better. Cover album "Sparkle" project "Toto & Seasons" So it's better to judge their own work aside and remixes of songs and processing of "Bravo" ("I Believe") and Bulat Okudzhava ("prayer") are available. The authors ironically called his work the term "neo-karaoke" - say, how easy to take for every song and sing their own words. A mix of lounge, dub and acid jazz simple and meditative texts simply deceptive - but do not believe that the simplicity, because it is only possible to believe - as the author tries to convince you that it's okay, "except that they "kill, and only. And - "Goodbye, My Love!" And again serene relaxation and acceptance of the sunny world. The mite make jazz improvisation alto saxophonist Andrew Panasovskyy participation and guitarist and vocalist Alexis Khmelevsky. The biggest problems with the "Toto & Seasons" with the rhythm section. Rather primitive computer templates sounds completely made of plastic, in stark contrast to the elegant craftsmanship saxophonist. The vocals also unfortunately not satisfied with their timbre, more relevant in rock compositions. Too much is not fused in this project was initially pretty. This suggests the idea of non-viability. But the greatest strength of the album - subtly ironic song Yegor Lviv, as that is exactly what these great salad electronic manipulation. Album for fans of clever custom electronics and rock audiences, tolerant of the abundance of electronic and non-live drums recommended. It is not recommended to fans nezamutnennogo lounge.
