Competition "Empire of Music" came from the banks of the format

Coming to the end of the quarter final training online music competition "The Empire Music," The regular six stages. 8th June, the last quarter, and then a very respectable jury will be, along with the audience will semifinal selection from scratch. We have to admit that when listening to the tracks in the quarter-finals, I was funny (redeemed only audience vote) put the estimate on a scale of 0 to 10. In the first half of selection often met even such high ratings, like 7 or 8, then another six (12 to 18) Tours none of the participants have gained more than 5 points. Whether all of the best were the first participants, or the number of strong musicians, ready to take to compete in an online competition completeness. But we must admit that name among the relatively decent this time much less. Meanwhile, the organizing committee has decided to publish a collection of "Empire of Music - the first meeting" with the winners of the quarter finals, and the most interesting musicians in the opinion of the Advisory Council. The "wax" and "Saw! Knowledge!" Already in heavy rotation on the radio station "Silver Rain". What accounts for the apparent reduction of the participants, it is difficult to imagine. More exhibitors this song as part of a commercial club sound. Pop, funk, reggae, alternative, rap-core And that would not matter if the songs are not incredibly secondary, even for those segments of the society, not to mention the great pop scene. Good news: musicians with original tracks and professional achievement is easier to stand, on a general level, and the recognition of the jury. Another six quarterfinals showed fantastic results: None of the participants do not have a "format" song. Not at all. Neither the format of pop music, or in the format "Nashe Radio" or the format of our eyes crystallized format "Radio Maximum." That's me all current members to break hopeful radio format by the inertia of the mass of perception. Another question which is obviously - because of what they actually intend to create a breakthrough all professionally laid out for votes, executed properly -. for example, can not "Odessa Style Group", a cappella version of the Ukrainian folk song Pop "Podolyanochka" remembered. But imagine this room or in a club or on the big stage - the audience to sleep, and they are right. A cross between rap and poetry by the court, "Deep Inside" referring to something more than just confusion, will not disclose the potential. Undoubtedly talented Belarusian rock theater group "DetiDetey" as if embarrassed to sing in the recitatives, the much narrower made his potential fans. No triumphant figures. The bringing together motivated by professional advocates of the "Format" and fans of the identity. Again a lot of radio. Much has been written in the previous reviews, it is very dangerous genre. Funk in English at all-sufficient to the audience that the Russian lyrics with funky bass usually ridiculous But again, a lot of applications are doomed to try their luck. And failed. It would be the right decision to split the competition "The Empire Music" genre shades. But it would be very ill to invent styles give all sisters on earrings. As a great artist - Feel it in any genre. Nepochem him all stylistic inconsistencies. It is therefore important, and the Grand Prix, and the special prize of the different structures show business. And the end is getting closer ... Vadim Ponomarev, NEWSmusic.ru
