Michelle Andrade — SORRY
After a year-long creative break, Michelle Andrade returns with a dance track and an explicit video filmed by Indy Hight.
- SORRY — this is a song about the moment when you no longer want to prove anything to anyone. Women are often taught to be convenient: not too loud, not to show their strength, sexuality, or ambitions. And I wanted to answer with an ironic sorry. In this song I allow myself to be audacious, sexy, playful, and a little cheeky. I feel like I’ve risen to another level of expressing my sexuality and am finally revealing my dark side, says Michelle.
MONATIK - "NuMo"
This is the second part of the conceptual triptych. We again find ourselves at the wedding of Kolya and Dantsy, but this time the focus is on MONATIK, who delivers a toast and introduces a new song. If the first act was drama, the second is fantasy.
- In the age of artificial intelligence I tell myself: let’s keep making live music. In the age of full-scale war I tell myself: let’s keep dreaming about beautiful and good. Maybe this is sheer optimism. But it saves me, says MONATIK.
KOLA - "Pit-stop"
The words and music of this song were written by Artem Pivovarov, and the track was produced as usual by Ivan Klymenko.
- «Pit-stop» is my playful side. It’s about the feeling when from love, passion, and the person beside you you feel so good that you seem to suffocate from these emotions, KOLA explains.
ANNA TRINCHER - "Oh, Lord!"
The singer gathered many stars in the video. TANYA LI and Eva Korshyk predict fortunes on cards, and then pull out a suspiciously rolled-up carpet from the frame. The video also features Slava Dyomin, Timur Miroshnichenko, Oleg Mashukovsky, and MELOVIN.
- I know the familiar feeling when the same notification from the past lights up on screen again, and in my head there’s only: “How long can this go on?” My new video “Oh, Lord” is a manifesto of lightness, self-respect, and my personal ironic version of “revenge.” I wanted to show the state when you finally choose yourself, no longer fall for toxic games, and just move on with a smile, Anna notes.
RONY - "Two Colors"
A contemporary reading of the legendary Ukrainian song “Two Colors” by Dmitro Pavlychko and Oleksandr Bilash. The video was shot at the Tudanka Reserve.
- For me, “Two Colors” has always been a song about something very personal — home, family, and memory. Today we love so deeply as never before, and we ache as deeply as words cannot describe. During filming at Tudanka this feeling became even stronger. Especially when people who were just strolling the reserve approached us, and we sang together, RONY shares.
KLER x OTOY - "Slow Disco"
This is a continuation of their previous joint track “Two.” Both songs were born in one studio evening, and the connection between them the artists noticed later. They spoke with KLER and OTOY about spontaneous jams, the first melancholic version of the track, and ways to “slow down” next to loved ones.
- We finished “Two,” Anton didn’t place the final chord, started improvising, and we picked up. The connection appeared later when we listened to the demos in a row. “Two” is about a time that doesn’t exist and wanting to take a loved one away from the world for at least an evening. And “Slow Disco” is about that evening when everything finally worked. So we first wrote the question, then the answer, and didn’t even notice it, OTOY says.
SOWA - "To Infinity"
The track began from the artist’s musical archives. SOWA returned to one of her English-language songs and sent it to musician and longtime friend Anton Borzenko. He suggested giving the piece new life in Ukrainian.
- I haven’t fallen in love for a long time, and this feeling is so calm and familiar that I forgot what it’s like to be in love. At some point I realized: this is exactly the state that doesn’t bring me suffering, but rather gives me a sense of lightness. That’s what the line in the song “I Live the Best Life” embodies. Life isn’t bad just because there are no romantic relationships. Love exists in many things, and sometimes inner peace is more important to me than being in love, SOWA explains.
Andriy Knyaz - "No, That’s Not Me"
Andriy Knyaz presented an updated version of the song “No, That’s Not Me,” which first appeared 21 a year ago. The artist decided to modernize the composition, which a whole generation of listeners has grown up with, while preserving its recognizable mood.
- I’ve long wanted to update, modernize this song, give it a new sound. At concerts fans often ask to sing it. Of course, 21 a year ago it sounded very different, and today that arrangement is hard to call fresh. So it’s time to make it new, Andriy Knyaz says.
MARSHA - "I Won’t Be Any Longer"
This is the first track by the singer after participating in the updated “Factory of Stars.” “I Won’t Be Any Longer” sounds like a manifesto of a new stage of the artist.
- This song appeared at a moment when I felt lost and broken. I suddenly realized how much my previous relationships changed my perception of myself, life, love, and the people I allow close. Sometimes the greatest pain is caused by those we trust the most, MARSHA comments.
