Release notes:

7th solo album by Zavoloka.

Ornament – an information carrier and a coding element for a unique and complex algorithm that modulates the state, space, intention, and path.

Embroidery technique – a conscious coding ritual, where the intention is modeled by both the external forms and the internal structures of the ornament symbols.

An embroidered structure – geometrical and sonic – is a set of energies, generating and conducting a harmonious path and destiny, where both holding the same harmony principles of the sacred process of the cryptography of the heart.

The sound ornament dances in time and space. The patterns with the rhythmic repetition of geometric tones embroider your symbolism, enhancing the expressiveness of the feeling and catching up after the spirit.

Feel the high frequencies, while perceiving the low pulsations. It is the contrast between slow and fast energies, where balance is the key. It is the basic impeccability of the curves in the harmonious flow, it is the conscious ritual of awareness with pure thoughts to create the unique.

Trace inner power into other dimensions. Encrypt intent with the ornament and weave your bright oscillation into the fabric of Existence. Explode as the calm light and jump into the Immeasurable.

Taken from Zavoloka "Svitlo" EP
My new release on Kvitnu!

http://kvitnu.com/releases/kvitnu14.html

Since her last released album "Viter" in 2007, Zavoloka took a long silence break and went into studio work and collaborations with visual artists. A lot of new material was written, and first part of latest tracks is presented in this EP. Here Zavoloka has changed her direction in sound again and went far from her previous works. "Svitlo" comes with heavy and raw bass lines combined with constantly breaking rythms and unexpected turns in track's structures. This mixture creates weird dusky and immerse atmosphere, something absolutely new, quite far from any other Zavoloka's works released yet.
Svitlo means Light in Ukrainian.

New album from Zavoloka "Amulet" is out now!
LP | Digital download https://zavoloka.bandcamp.com/album/amulet

"Ability for the impossible.

Ukrainian folk instruments dissolve into abstract psychoactive sounds from the improvisational universe. The meditative engine of multi-instrumental music drives the magical means of influencing perception. This is the sonic amulet, which is decorated with radiant tones and the colorful ceremonial musical outline. Mythological music is spirited by epic historical times and ideas of freedom, dignity, and bravery. The acquired knowledge of ancient generations is infused into the present tense and crystallized into the art of liberation.

Transform pain into gratitude, fear into love, rage into action, self-importance into empathy, fatigue into inner peace, anxiety into courage, and hatred into strength. Say "no" to darkness and direct the light on it, disagree to compromise with yourself, create on the destroyed, free yourself from stipulations, believe in wonders, burn and resurrect free. Always remember your own path to walk.

And plant the blossoming cherry tree in the funnel from the bomb on the heart.

Dedicated to free Ukraine."

Cпроможність до неможливого. 

Українські народні інструменти розчиняються в абстрактних психоактивних звуках імпровізаційного всесвіту. Медитативний двигун мультиінструментальної музики приводить в рух магічний вплив на сприйняття. Це звуковий амулет, прикрашений яскравими тонами та барвистим обрядовим музичним контуром. Міфологічна музика натхненна епічними історичними часами та ідеями свободи, гідності та хоробрості. Набуті знання давніх поколінь вливаються в сьогодення та кристалізуються в мистецтві звільнення. 

Перетвори біль у вдячність, страх у любов, лють у дію, почуття власної важливости в співчуття, втому у внутрішній спокій, тривогу у сміливість, ненависть у силу. Скажи «ні» темряві й спрямуй на неї світло, не погоджуйся на компроміси з собою, створи на зруйнованому, звільнися від обумовленостей, вір у дива, згори та воскресни вільним. Завжди пам’ятай йти своїм шляхом. І посади квітучу вишню у вирву від бомби на серці.

Присвячено вільній Україні.

This is second volume from series of albums dedicated to Purification by Four Elements: Water.

The music is composed by Kateryna Zavoloka, transmitting different states of water and how they can be specifically translated to the sound. Low frequencies as a depth, traditional vocal as surface of sonic water. This album is a result of 2-years research, including work at Electroacoustic Music Studio at Academy of Music in Cracow and concerts-performances in collaboration with live generative interactive visuals from Laetitia Morais.
It is exploration of Water Element. It is inspired by knowledge about Ukrainian Cossacks-Magicians, so-called Kharakternyky, that could control forces of nature, particularly water. They used to drink spring water to purify their energy and to became undistinguished and fluid as water. To reach inner melting.

Track list:
01 Splendent viscid fluid (6:36)
02 Vivid chains (4:14)

Release notes:

VA "There Will Be Light" 

"...The idea behind 'There Will Be Light' was born several years ago as a concept for providing relaxing sounds, to invoke a sense of peace and calm, in headphones on the street, in the subway, at home or in the car. This notion is all the more pressing as Ukraine is being ravaged by war; the objective of this release feels all the more relevant and important. Rhythm Büro believes that everyone, everywhere, deserves to have the instruments to help them achieve a peaceful state of mind and they hope that through listening to this release, it can help them do so..."

Freedom Of Exclusion I Свобода Відчуження

https://kvitnu.bandcamp.com/album/lullaby-for-the-enemy

Kvitnu turned 13 years! And this time we decided to make a quite unusual release for our birthday.

In September 2019 Ukrainian singer and veteran of Russian-Ukrainian war Anastasia Shevchenko (СТАСІК / Stasik) released her song “Lullaby for the enemy”. The frankness and true radicality of this song amazed us, and immediately after the video for this song came out, we (Kotra and Zavoloka) offered to Anastasia to make remixes to Lullaby, and she accepted our offer.

We will not write additional concepts. This song’s text already contains it all.

Song lyrics are provided in three versions - Ukrainian, Russian and English. You’ll get them together with the music.

Original video of this song - https://youtu.be/40WD9RDAMVc

More about Стасік (Stasik) on her web sites:

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hardbride
https://soundcloud.com/stasiksound

Like some of our previous releases for the anniversary of the label, this one also comes in two formats - a free download for everyone, and a 7 ” vinyl that will be produced as a special, limited in time, on-demand edition.

The final amount produced depends on how many pre-orders we will get during first two weeks after a release date. Then orders are closed and no more copies are planned for additional pressing.

We will announce final amount of the edition, which will be hand numbered on each cover.

This is our 68th release.

Thank you for listening and developing with us for all these intense years!

Happy holidays!

_________________________________________________________________

KVITNU виповнюється 13 років, і цього разу ми вирішили зробити дещо незвичний реліз до нашої річниці.

У вересні 2019 року українська співачка та ветеран війни Anastasiia Shevchenko (СТАСІК) видала пісню “Колискова для ворога”. Відвертість та правдива радикальність цього твору вразила нас, і одразу ж після виходу відео на цю пісню ми, Kotra та ZAVOLOKA, запропонували Анастасії зробити наші ремікси на Колискову, на що вона дала згоду.

Ми не писатимемо додаткових концепцій. Текст цієї пісні вже містить усе.

Прослухайте Колискову в оригіналі, прослухайте в нашій інтерпретації, згадайте ще раз, хто ви є і що останні п’ять років відбувається навколо.

Як і деякі наші попередні релізи на річницю лейблу, цей також вийде у двох форматах - безкоштовне завантаження для усіх бажаючих, а також 7” платівка, що буде виготовлена обмеженим ексклюзивним накладом.

Це наш 68й реліз.

Ukrainian-born and Berlin-based Zavoloka is a blossoming composer, sound artist, performer, and visual artist that devotes herself to orchestrating uncompromising experimental music free from genre-dependent definitions and styles. Her works always stem from a very strong conceptual base, unveiling creations that are more than just music, exhibiting deep artistic research, and combining traditional and mechanical elements to show the boundlessness of her creative freedom.

From performing tantalizing live audio-visual sets and partaking in cross-genre art projects, co-running the experimental music labels Prostir, and its sublabel I Shall Sing Until My Land Is Free, and label Kvitnu (closed in 2020) with Dmytro Fedorenko (Kotra , VARIÁT), forming a band with Fedorenko called Cluster Lizard, and being renowned for visual cover art creations and graphic designs, Zavoloka is well and truly making an indelible imprint in the world of music and art.
