always welcome, I hope cyrillic does not bother you. It feels really really weird to even try to translate (or transcribe) those titles smile

on this RIGHT now! big_smile ??????? ????!

Already heard some of these, but not all...

btw, do you know about/have any good quality Zona Aktivnosti & Forum MP3s online? cheers

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

Tottie - I'll go through my bookmarks - saw a good quality rip of Forum somewhere recently. Never heard about Zona Aktivnosti though, what are they like?

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

nice one, that'd be sweet!

Z.A. did a cassette release in 1986, with tracks 'ia lechu, kak meteor', 'snezhnii chelovek' & 'ushla liubov, sostav'...i only heard the 1st two tracks on a compilation someone played me last year...synth pop, italo-esque sounds...all i know otherwise is that Andrei Litiagin composed the tracks, and that the singers from Mirazh sang on them. the only link i found to MP3s is a 404, i'm afraid...

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

Obi1r - you mean cover-versions of stevie wonder and stuff in the mix? (the answer is no) or LP coverart? (tracks from the mix - posted what I could on them on discogs; Forum http://batzbatz.com/uploads/posts/1183116420_forum.jpg and Zona Aktivnosti - I think it was cassette or real to real tape with no cover art)

Tottieheid - thanks, you're welcome for a beer and maybe listen to some records when you're in Minsk smile

Untill now, I never knew this kind of music excists in the Soviet Union... the only Soviet music i ever heard is proganda songs in war documentaries. Very nice these soviet vibes

Go out and play

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

hehe, they're pretty much rare gems. Mind you, there were no "funk artists" or "disco artists". If you lookup the names, these same bands and singers mostly produced loads and loads of shit - pop music of its time. In a typical situation, you get an album, or a compilation with one or two standout tracks. Also, any kind of sexiness and grooviness was pretty much considered politically wrong, so you don't get that many artists trying to go that way.

word to that...the first 'Melodiia' pop vinyl that i ever got my hands on was precisely as you say, nondescript but catchy, maybe even charming in places, pop music...'Nash Adres - Sovetskii Soiuz'...but it wasn't until travelling to Russia & tuning into a Kazan 'nostalgiia' radio station that i ever hear funk or disco orientated shit. i still really hope to dig for some vinyl here, even though most Russian friends say it's almost impossible...i've decided to ignore them big_smile , & take my optimism as far as it can go, through fleamarkets & junk shops

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

hi guys, reviving the old topic

this russian collector/complier guy apprently got inspired by my mix of the soviet stuff that he decided to make unmixed compilation based on it. plus some very nice bonus tracks added by himself. София Ротару - Начало мая been my favourite for last fewe months, so he probably was stalking me on last.fm  lol

check this if you wanna spin them digital or reshuffle in your favourite order smile

Re: 8 ????? - M???????????? ??????? ????. (Soviet lovesong nonstop)

also, this compiler guy is noteworthy for his "Soviet Electronic Music" series, make sure to check it out, it covers both classic and obscure, really good soviet synth 101 stuff.  http://smssend-rock.blogspot.com/search … 0Музыка%22
