Group "Cafe": Our hit - absolutely disgusting!

Group "Cafe" on 3 August will mark its big 15th anniversary concert in Petersburg club Jagger and free. On the eve of the musicians said they hold their biggest hit, "Comrade Sergeant" "disgraceful" and talked about the suspicious coincidences in the biographies of famous musicians and of course about his new album "Three clock in the morning." Group "Cafe" Alexei Smirnov, musicians of "Cafe", we have the music in small, nepafosnyh studios that deal with creativity and friendship with musicians, producers no twists. I could see the "3.00" with the Beatles 'White Album' to compare, because it's a bunch of songs "that I see that I sing." It is a general term, but not a single musical style. We do not always like the format, and play the music that you like at the moment. And every day we can be happy the new music ... - They beat "Comrade Sergeant" you, as it should be frowning be St. Petersburg musical intellectuals do not like? Alexei Smirnov: Our hit - absolutely scandalous. The only time that I wrote the song somehow left foot, because they needed a place stuck in the collection of the young team. We wrote the album, we were asked: Give a song, you do not mind. It was a pity it. Had to quickly compose a half hour the first available song on the first available words. We thought we would be on the album, and there's no one else hears. A month later - a song in the charts all over the country. We got out of the eyes on the forehead. While it may be that we caught the mood that was in the air. The same was in the mid 90s. On the road, it was not worth the extra time is not going to be something without a passport, but in general. And the song, oddly enough, even for the day. Shots in the distance, perhaps stopped, but in the brain, nothing has changed ... Heath can, what you want to do. It's not the song, and from the conditioned reflexes. If you repeat the same thing a hundred times, it is in my head. It has long been known musicians programs. People need to feel that the artist the same as it is. That it consists of a simple family, only made his own work, he worked as a laborer, bought first guitar, and suddenly rich producer accidentally discovered him when he was working with the next 18-hour shift at the restaurant. Until recently, I have a radio program authors biographies of musicians. The official press release is necessarily present a disaster or accident that the hero to overcome. Stories are remarkably similar in all ... The second team member - Sergei Starodubtsev almost unique in Peter has been a professional rock mandolin and his colleagues are often invited to participate in the recording of albums. It turns out that he recently worked with the "King and Jester" Butusov Grebenshchikov. Sergei Starodubtsev, musicians of "Cafe" I'm trying to make its power. Tool unusual, and often wait a mandolin, and I have very different functions. Get involved in other people's projects - a barter arrangement. You give something to invent, improve foreign body, but also get an interesting experience. Now, after musicians communicate with each other virtually. The same festivals bring on a separate bus, played, and you are away in the locker room for each other made without a walk. I still sometimes listen to other qualification levels to understand the team what was going on. But in jazz, blues festivals, where we sometimes together with the Americans, the Italians, the atmosphere of the normal music, jam, talk to each other ... - What has changed in the sound of the group for 15 years? Alexei Smirnov: We always sounds different, the beginning and the end of the album at the beginning and end of the week. Since during this time someone heard something, someone thought of something. Our style - always different. One day one of my favorite guitarists Jeff Beck asked awareness of style, branded games. He said that every time great guitarists sound different and play new pieces that no one of them can not be expected. And not that I found my jet and I'm getting paid, so - not a step to the left and right. We do not want such an intervention into our music, and also to gain the love of the people. Music is important. For us it is important that a labor of love as it is pathetic.
