Do you know at least one Ukrainian punk rock band? Of course, no one asked me such a question, but I sometimes ask it to my friends. Talking about the glorious traditions of Ukrainian rock n roll, I don't want to miss punk itself. The first thing that comes to my mind is the band Borshch. Some people will say it's not punk rock, and maybe they're right. But musically and lyrically, Borshch has a spark that only lives in this style.

The story of one music video
By indiedockmusicblog | |
One November morning, I went to the antique shop 'LOT ONE TEN'. I loved taking a walk in autumn London after a snack at McDonald's and a large serving of black coffee. I felt in good spirits and even the gray rain could not interfere with my daily ritual, so Walthamstow greeted me with genuine indifference, as if inviting me to take a walk on the favorite street of the designer William Morris, whose mansion-museum was around the corner.

Shake and Jazz in Shanghai

You know, when I invited my friends to visit a jazz club they refused! And probably, it would be all right if I decided to go there myself. It would be all right somewhere in the West but not here, not in Shanghai.

Igor Stravinsky, a great composer of the 20th century, once lived. He once lived in Eastern Europe in western Ukraine - in the town of Ustyluh. Once when I was in Volyn, I managed to persuade my friend Serhiy to take me to a "paradise corner for creativity."

Around the Roundhouse
By indiedockmusicblog | |
For many people living in East London, the paths intersect with a strange round house of yellowish-pale color with a square tower on the roof. We are in Degenham. Once, it happened with me when I drove from Barking to Romford that I had to take bus route number 368 and see this Art Nouveau architectural marvel. Later, a friend of mine who lives in Degenham told me about this legendary place for all fans of good old English rock and roll.
