"The Slavs. Issue Two" paganism and traditions

Compilation of songs for a compilation called "Slavs" - originally a difficult task. Slavic people divided among themselves as much as the long time in history, not an expense. And politically and culturally. CD. Cultural Foundation "Scythian horn", 2010. To get the songs from Poland, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Macedonia, Belarus, and Russia as well as an artistic statement? Incredibly difficult. No ethnic communication infrastructure, not in the habit of cooperation. With Internet access. Any attempt to make a Slavic culture feat - and the case is valuable. ". Slavs Issue Two" 19 items in the second place on the collection "Slavs" cultural fund "Scythian horn", known relative with the same name except the magazine knows to sell where and are missing in the same Internet - most of these benefits. And he says that the Slavs are terribly fragmented, on the edge of the loss of national identity to destructive influences, and held almost at the genetic memory of the pagan. Of course, in real life it is not. But the organizers of the book deliberately deleted from the Orthodox tradition of the "Slavic". The result was predictably disastrous. Most of the tracks written open amateur or unprofessional. Quality track records of Bulgarian Ene beneath contempt. Polish mysterious project «S? Owia? Ski With o Stworzeniu? Wiata »Suits already" tinuternovschinu "and completes the Muslim motives under the guise of Veles. Croatian ensemble Savski Valovi shows that restaurant-Soviet interpretation of Croatian folklore alive today. Serbian community Izvor sees Serbian Slavs purely Turkish Sultanate. Bulgarian Evgenia Georgieva (singer of the trio "Perunika") proves the electronic dark-pop is the same, only this time on Bulgaria and Macedonia Dragan Dautovski Quartet -. (!) Over Macedonia Track listing "The Slavs Second Edition.": 1 S1owianski With o Stworzeniu Świata - Perun z Welesem (Poland) 2 Hvarna - Vesna, jo buva (Belarus) 3 Savski Valovi - Plakale su moje pjesme (Croatia) 4 Savski Valovi - Babica Jagica (Croatia) 5 Izvor - Tamna noћi, Tamna Li Si (Serbia) 6 Izvor - Shetnala se kuzum mill (Serbia) 7 Trutamora Slovenica - ta Kucorina Gora (Slovenia) 8 Evgenia Georgieva - Estimate (Bulgaria) 9 Evgenia Georgieva - Golden mome (Bulgaria) 10 Ene - Empty Mladost (Bulgaria) 11 Zagreb-Markovac - Tulipani su črleni; Dva junaki (Croatia) 12 Dragan Dautovski Quartet - Jano, Jano (Macedonia) 13Dragan Dautovski Quartet - Kumanovka (Macedonia) 14 Svejk Band - Pětatřicátníci (Czech Republic) 15Švejk Band - Instrumental (Czech Republic) 16 Vuge - CRNE Cizme (Croatia) 17Moon Far Away - Clear Shine - What a Vanya (Russia) 18 Alatyr! (Russia) and 19Vedan Kolod Yaros - and the feast Kupala (Russia) Bouncy Vejk band perfectly call the atmosphere of Czech beer in the time of Hitler's Third Reich, but it Slavic folklore, language does not turn. Much more good impression Slovenian ensemble Trutamora Slovenica, carefully reconstructing old Slovenian songs pure choral singing, and the shrill cry of the Zagreb-Markovac listening symphonic polyphony in Croatian authentic melodies. Croatian Vuge, maybe sing a few clean, but honest and direct. It is worthwhile to say, "us". Do not select more than strange, but why? Archangel Moon Far Away is not known, but there are a lot of years and a lot of luck in dealing with the pre-Christian folklore in the dark electronic music. The song "What a Vanya" perfectly illustrates the theme of the separation of two lovers on a background Gothic battle drums - authenticity can not be expected, but zateyno. Krasnodar playful group "Alatyr" and the magnificent duo "Vedan Kolod" with "Yaros" so badly written, which are probably even the slightest impression of these groups. Smack initiative in these tracks are so strong that discuss "Gori clear" and "A Midsummer Celebration" impossible - only the dignity of the records in the "pagan" subjects, and these extra-artistic category. From the book "The Slavs. Release of the second" half a mile away is the cultural decay, and it was obvious that the authors of the original plan. According to him, today's Slavs muzzy of computers and beer, was under Turkish heel, and humble, modest remember secretly blessed pagan rituals. This is quite articulated position, and it makes sense to discuss it. Only Juicy Music is expected from its support is not necessary. Score: 6 out of 10. Vadim Ponomarev, "News Showbiz NEWSmusic.ru»
