SteklovataTonight I decided to blog about one of my favorite music groups. It may surprise you, but it is a Russian one -- Steklovata. There are two main solists -Denis Belikin and Arthur Yeremeyev. The lyrics of the group are written by the composer of the music who is also a producer of Steklovata -- Sergey Kuznechov. Thanks to his studio we all have the chance to experience the truly touching and moving Russian music. For their first album Sergey wrote the music first -- then he worked on the vocals -- first the leading one and then the supportive. The incredible voice ranges of Artur and Denis are like a trade mark for the music of Steklovata -- and probably the reason for which many treble music fans know about the group.The songs are really different – you can hear great ballads and fast up beating vibes. At the same time the lyrics are written very well – which is not surprising since Sergey Kuznechov is not only a composer, but a poet as well.

There is a lot of information about Steklovata out there -- enough for a whole book as their producers mentions in his official page. However the majority of this information is available only in Russian.These days thanks to fans from all over the world -- we could expect more information to be either translated or written in other languages. Ever since I wrote the first draft of this page -- more than 4 000 people from all over the world have seen it and many have added their comments ( thanks you pals ).

I found out about that group from a friend of mine- once he gave me a CD with video clips on it and a couple of mp3 files. Those files happened to be from the first album of the group. Soon -- I got addicted to the music and after searching in Google I found the official site of the group.In addition you can see the album covers and even purchase them in here

You may think – sounds nice – but what did you say – a Russian band – and I do not know Russian. Well I am not very well at it either (which is shame since I have studied it for 3 years) – and still enjoy the music of Steklovata.I found out that Steklovata as a band is just one of the projects of Sergey Kuznechov. There are many others – and each is as good as Steklovata is – as a quality of the music. Almost all songs are available for free (non – commercial use) from the web site of the studio.

This is the homepage of producer of the band.The site has a new design from few months -- and now it looks better and the navigation in easier. A varity of information is available -- trough you will need to know Russian or use some of the online web translators such as worldlingo in order to use it.

According to the official web page there is a CD out there which includes some of the most popular projects of studio Sergey Kuznechov.The CD features featuring music, video clips, photo sessions and midi files.All you have to do to get it is to send a mail to the kuziaart@yandex.ru and ask for details about its price and the way of delivery. This is the only way for you to have the complete set in your collection and most importantly to support the future projects of Sergey.

A bit of history :

In 1999 the talented poet and composer , creator of the groups “ Tender May “, “Mama” and “ Chernila for fifth grade “ found the 13 years old vocalist Denis Belikin for his new project. One year later studio “Monolit “issues the first song – which becomes part of the disk of group “Chernila for fifth grade “

Soon after that another singer joins the Group (Artur Eremeev) and jointly they issue their first album although unofficially under the name “Pieces of ice”. In 2002 the group again unofficially releases another album “Ostorozhno -- Hrupkoe -- 2003”

The main problems of the new group is the absence of sponsors – which was a real problem as the group was never given a chance to present its music to the public in large. The group was able to gain popularity mainly trough participation in music fests across the country. In 2002 the group was able to take first place in the hid parade of the Russian radio in Estonia.

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hi Steph,

    No they do not have a site in English – actually this blog post is one of the very few places where you can read about them in language that is not Russian – but then again if you want to know something or have anything to add – you can always ask me – or leave a comment or something ….

    Greetings,

    Hello Scoobi ,

    Yes Steklovata is the name of the band and the it is a kind of material existing in Russia – the name has a double meaning in a way – soft like cotton , and shiny like glass – in way . You can purchase the CD from the studio – and I am sure that someone from there will know English – they will send it to Brazil – I have listed the contact details in the post. You can also download the music for free from the official web site of the group .

    hello again….can you tranlate whats music in Russian

    please…
    good bye

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Scoobi,

    I am not member of Steklovata – I wish I was , but am not. I am just a fan of their music and of almost everything produced by Sergey Kuznecov- including the writings….etc.

    You can go to their site by pressing the text links in the post and the blue banner at the bottom on which actually is their producer – you will be contacting with.

    Music is музыка in Russian , but you can always use some online translator like Google translate to write your mail in Russian – I do that since my Russian is not that good ( trough I can sing )

    And of course I can upload some of their music – btw if you like steklovata you will like and the other project of Sergey like New Forms ( I like it as much as I do Steklovata or even more )

    Here is the link:

    http://tinyurl.com/ysrslj

    PS. When you contact Sergey please mention my blog I know that he knows about it – the first comment in this post is left by him , but I feel great contributing in a way to the studio .

  • steph

    Hey!

    I wonder where I can find some videos of them from 2006 or 2007. I am really interested to maybe buy their albums!

    Take care dude!

    Hello Seidel,

    Look for the previous comments to find out how you can purchase their albums . As about the videos – the newest one released was for new year – and you can find it on youtube.

    Hello Skykid!

    I’m from Sweden and just slipped into Steklovata by an accident, but now I’m trying to learn more about them. How old are the two boys in the band today?
    On the youube-site there is a clip that is said to be Steklovata today, in a boyband of four much older guys. Is it really them in that video? If you search on “Russian boys band Steklovata at present time” on youtube it will come up…

    Thank you for doing this about Steklovata :)!
    /Elin

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Elin,

    For some reason there is not much information in English about them. I assume that you saw the video clip for new year in which the boys indeed look older – but are themselves. Steklovata is a great band and so is their producers – who has my deepest respect . Sergei is producing more music new – has new project – for some you can read at my blog – others you can see from his official web page -
    http://www.kuzia.org/
    ( its only in Russian for now )

    I truly enjoy meeting people like you – who enjoy the good music out there. These days I am on vacation and can not visit my blog often ( only from these internet coffees) – therefore pls excuse me that I am not able to write a better responce to your comment. Will return home in the middle of September – hope to still be seeing you around then…

    Greetings ,

    SkyKid

  • Elin

    Hello again.. Actually it was this video I was referring to:

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=WLGtPiImicI

    It isn’t them, is it?

    Anyway, I will keep listen to Steklovata, I love them :D!
    Hope you have a good time on your vacation. Take care! /Elin

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    From the video I saw – I don`t think that they are on it.

  • regina

    hii;] i have a questionn, is Steklovata an older group?
    like are they from now? are a few years back.

    i cant seem to find that information.

    =]

  • jenny

    hey skykid=]
    do you happen to know the neams of the boys in steklovata.
    not all of them just the two in the video for “steklovata”

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Regina and Jenny,

    Thanks for commenting . Jenny – Steklovata is a band of two members – Denis Belikin and Arthur Yeremeyev.

    And Regina I seem to have some trouble understanding your question – if you are asking if they are still making music – the answer is yes as recently there was a video clip out there for new year. Also if you like the music of Steklovata I am sure that you will like the other projects of Kuzia as well.

  • be18ggg

    hey um my ? is, are steklovata ever going to do any promoting in America?
    it would be cool if they did.

  • regina

    skykid, i see you told a person before that they had to contact the studio to get the cd..
    well how can someone fomr america do that???

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Be18gg- as far as I know the studio behind Steklovata is not going to promote the group in America – there are new ongoing projects there and my guess is that if there is a group to be promoted it would be Angel and Cat – may be as this project still is in a way ” mystery ” . Hello Regina – you could use an online translator such as google translate to write an e-mail to the studio and ask for aditional information about the cd – I have done that in the past and received a response. Another variant is to find / meet a friend who knows Russian so he can assist you – as far as I know there is at least one English speaking person there – so this could be a variant too. Once again please bear in mind that I am fan like you and my answers go as far as my knowledge for the studio goes – as always the most correct and up to date information can be obtained from the studio itself. I think that the language should not be a barrier.

  • steph

    Hi ! Skykid. It’s been awhile. Well I got in contact with the studio in Russia. They are very nice people. They helped me out and keep me informed of any new music coming out. even with other groups. We keep in contact via E-mail. They are surprised that Steklovata is so popular here in the United States. Im waiting for a E-mail response, They usaully send one back 4-6 hours after I send one depending on the time. You know ?I’m going to try to help them out on a project I got going to make it easier for others to enjoy their music without having to have a translator sitting next to you. I told him about it before, He liked the idea. I also stated I get a hold of him so Id have all the right info. He thanked me for it. Ill let you know too. Keep in touch. Take care Skykid. Steph.

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Steph,

    I am glad that you contacted the studio. They are all great people as you have seen for yourself. Steklovata are popular everywhere and I am glad that you would contribute to the studio – they truly deserve it. Keep me updated as well ( if you want I can give you my msn – but in any case you always have this blog here )

    Take care ,

    SkyKid

  • http://skykid.wordpress.com/ skykid

    Hello Regina,

    I have no idea why Denis is not replaying – I suppose that he has no time – but just to be sure you could try to contact the studio and ask them to verify his e-mail address. Hope that you will get that reply.

    I saw at the Official site of the studio that Arthur Yeremeyev is still singing – his most recent song was released at 18/04/08. But I haven`t heard anything about Denis Belikin – you probably they have not together as you have noticed.
