The most popular guitar player and sound producer in the VL city, Russia.
Paul Gulyaev (President of the Musicon Co.Ltd):
I hope that with the reference of Vladivostok city at long last will cease to appear the association from the "mummies Of trol' shameful for the musicians". For the first time Vladivostok erupted from itself the musical creation, for which not only it is not shameful, but which deserves close attention of those, who has focused their attention precisely in the guitar music. Sergey Taranoff - Vladivostok instrumental guitarist, that was collected of courage to sum up his works in last year and to let out his first album "Car Audio". Name "automobile music" rather characterizes not very content of disk, but attitude of the author toward project. It seemingly demonstrates to listeners its "lenient" relation to the result of its it is working, carrying contents of album to the background automobile music. However, the nature of the entered the album compositions, the performer and intellectual levels of craftsmanship they will pleasantly astonish those, who are disposed to the "easy provincial genre". The nonstandard solutions and sonic innovations in each composition await you, that guarantees the desire to attentively hear album not one time.
Certainly, it is possible to express censures in the address of mastering and mixing, but those, for whom musical thought and personal skill of executor is important first of all, will not note blemishes in the record. Album is sufficiently integral, is diverse in the content and is professional. Under the conditions of the catastrophic hunger in the region of instrument music in Russia is desirable to say "at long last!!!". At long last in Russia!.. At long last from Vladivostok!.. At long last instrument music!.. It is at long last professional!.. At long last noteworthy!..
Not is less important the fact that this is the first work of Sergey, but he is young, and there are all foundations for awaiting new even more significant works. Gladdens, that Sergey not only absorbed the experience of known to entire peace guitarists, but also it introduced its, originated by his generation, sounding and vision. The combination of the genres and sonic solutions with the surface hearing they can create the illusion of eclectic mixing, but this is only illusion. It is obvious that the author searches for his individual handwriting and style. Let now and then his vision cause the questionable reactions, but the main thing, that it does not leave indifferent. Album very unboring and will be interesting to any guitarist or to musician, whose interests are located in the region of contemporary, innovative the fate of music.
In the conclusion it is completely appropriate to wish to Sergey Taranoff new creative successes. It is desirable to believe that precisely such musicians in the near future will represent Vladivostok on the Russian and international scene.
