А не быть ветрам - да повеяли
А не быть огню - да порушен дом
А не быть зиме - да белым-бело за окном
А уйти бы мне - да ноги не идут
А любить бы мне - да сердце высохло
А свила б гнездо птица вольная
Да деревья жгут
А домой бежать - да двери на замке
А лететь бы в небо да крыльев нет

'Incantations' is a difficult studio opus (the recording took nearly a year), appealing to the archaic stratum of human consciousness, belonging to the times when people were not divided by various countries, languages and religions. The songs dwell upon senses and sensations common to all of us - upon love, death, pain, pleasure. That is why the songs combine various musical instruments of different cultures: Tibetan ritual trumpet, Australian didgeridoo, South Indian kanjira, Russian wind instruments - 'rozhok', 'kalyuka' and other folk pipes and trumpets, sax, flute, bass guitar, rock drums. A didgeridoo calls with a sax, undertone singing intertwine with a Russian horn, and a Tibetan bone pipe moans in a Russian folk song. This is an exploration of mystic undercurrents of old Russian folk chants, on which the songs are based. But the lyrics are contemporary, written by Rada, the lead singer. The vocalist and bandleader Rada, author of all the songs, is a leading performer of a Russian indie-scene since 1991. She is distinguished by unusually powerful and clear voice and the deep lyricism of her poetry. After many experiments with trip-hop sound, dark folk and neoclassical albums, using exotic instrumentation (indian folk instruments et al), "Rada & Ternovnik" arrived at a unique synthesis of archaic world traditions and the modern post-rock sound. Her distinctive voice combine folk intonations and specific folk overtones with classical opera singing techniques, low wheezing timbres with coloratura soprano. Her singing is often compared to Diamanda Galas and Ima Sumak. 'Incantations' present an unusual form of musical and poetic shamanism; here Tibetan and Celtic tunes meet Russian folk melodies, here Slavic poetry meet Japanese aesthetics. An embryo, a soul in a maze of dreams and melodies is depicted on the cover (created by a Moscow astist Anton Ochirov). Thus the listener dwells through the labyrinth, facing the archetypes and archaic sounds, that wake the primal image of the world.
'Incantations' is a caleidoscope of the archaic and the eternal, of world music and psychedelic rock, of dark folk motifs and avant jazz tunes, a soundscape yet complex but simple and plain

The following CD Review, written by Carolee, is now published in Issue #25 of Gothic Beauty Magazine. Leaning heavily on the crutch of comparison to explain the indescribable: if Thrill Kill Kult, Gitane Demone, In Gowan Ring, and an experimental jazz band met with a gloomy reverb-y bass and a prog-rock guitar, you'd have something like Rada & Ternovnik. Despite or because of its lo-fi feel, it's pretty good gothy/atmospheric rock, though Rada's high operatic flights tremble on the edge of decency and she's steadier with the slinkier, softer vocals. "Incantations" opens buzzing with high drama and descends with bass and noirish saxophone, which returns in cabaret style rather well at points. While the lyrics need a Russian listener for full appreciation, emotions are still heady and passionate, flung by moods as disparate as the tender pings of the harp and a psychedelic guitar. It's kind of like a weird post-Christian Death project, but in Russian. (Carolee) ===

Отличная музыка для лечения депресняка путём усиления своего состояния. Как погрузишься, так словно поплавок, стремительно выныриваешь к жизни и солнцу... Интересно, а у авторов это состояние депрессии перманентно?
Спасибо за психотерапевтичную музыку...
