why didn’t we invite our dear little girl to a meeting with you, and we did it? yes, well, as always, with some catch, this brilliant ensemble of a duet doesn’t even have a name yet, so please introduce it as it should be, my name is stepan kornaenko, the string project, this is belarus, between from belarus , the city of svetlogorsk, it’s very nice, my name is evgeniy, dark soul, but this name has long been invented, and together we produce tracks with balalaika, that is, in different genres. on your before our eyes, our guests will now try to improvise, to make a whole, whole play, so modern, but with the good old shell.

well, this is a very, i’ll tell you, radio-friendly format, just you and me, can i speak for both of us, as soon as we separated , the play had already ended, the balalaika, of course, there are sad, meditative plays for the balalaika, but mostly this of course, it’s an instrument of glee, but here she is, starting straight with her own legs. of course, where did you study? primary education in belarus, slovogorsk, then i graduated from college in belarus too, in the balalaika, in the balalaika everything is in the class, in moscow already in the higher education, and when your mother took you to this school, the guys didn’t laugh in class, ha-ha-ha, at the balalaikas, but i i went myself, oh well, but these are only balalaikas for grandfathers, no, felt boots, paws like a laika, i went to the guitar right away, and then it happened, what? why were you

so attracted to this balalaika? a beautiful russian instrument with a unique timbre, how is it built? memilyav, two strings in unison in a desk, is this a native system, or is this an academic one? build, yes, this is a tremolo, but somehow your nails, your nails don’t break during such a tremolo, you always have to keep in shape to play. we play not with a fingernail, but with a pad, are you in high demand or are you still an amateur? well, actually now yes, for now it’s for amateurs, because we don’t have a concert director or management , that is, in principle, we have a ready-made multi-genre project, even now we have a cover program, we did it separately, we’re also making a new one project, with electro-like, that is, it is a house project, more commercial music, we mean, house is when you can... dance, yes, that means we will

hope that our musicians have harnessed the balalaika with its age-old proven manners, you know, to make everyone want to dance, and we will hope that the good old, unseen instrument will also come to modern clubs, in confirmation of such words, i ask you to play something else.

yes, well, you know, your composition is already more complex, of course, you make this balalaika think, and not just make funny fair sounds, this is of course very ok, but how did you manage to marry this disc-jacque set, well, yes , well, it’s more precisely not a design set at all, that is, it is an element of the game, because we are writing the entire production from scratch, that is, i myself am the producer of this project, that is, i write all the boots, basses and so on, but this is the rice, right? everything, yes, yes, sound design and so on , and then please give me some solo sound , solo sound - it’s already here so that we can understand, a little later, you did a great job, by the way, this sound, balalayan, yes,

somehow they did this, that is, your balalaika also goes through effects , yes, yes, we have a processor, yes effects , everything is already processed here, all the effects, all the compression, equalization and so on, that is, essentially check, that is, we arrive at the site. then please show us your laboratory, how it’s all done, now we’ll write in house, and music , that is, we need to catch the groove, that is, we have a kick drum, bass, base, yes, base, now we’ll go into the synthesizer, uh , let's find some bass, now we'll make friends. and a kick drum with bass, let’s add some detail to it, that is, it should go like this certain groove, and also a nuance of this genre, that is, in general it can be built on one note, that is, we take

one one note, it’s already all on it and everything goes, but for the balalaika - then it’s better after all, because there ’s no mi yes, well, yes, for classical yes for so as not to force a person to break his fingers. and we are rebuilding the tools, that is, here, now he set the task to re, it will be re. and you have an open chord, d is obtained, d we will lower the tuning a little now, you have the balalaika processing also in computer, yes, yes, yes, yes, now we will write the rhythm of the balalaika, it also gives a certain movement, come on, come on. well, riddles, further on the percussion, you need a clap and also some kind of percussion to create another rhythm, you will now fill it with sounds, you know, they will interfere with each other,

everything should be very easy and transparent, we will also bring out the percussion from the kick, barrels. that 's it, let's write some atmosphere. now we are designing, that is, balalaikas, almost all our tracks are based on this, we still need reverses, but atmospheric ones.

yeah, that is, we recorded a direct balalaika, and now it’s a long time ago, right? and now it will be in reverse, that is, we are already entering the track, very good, that is, this is an element , well, in fact, all this is very good, of course, it is immediately recognizable, all of us who were at dances, of course, he knows this type of music, but comrades, something very important is missing, without which the balaka does not exist, namely the theme, now play the melody on top of everything that you are now doing so well, masterfully for us here they screwed it up, but give us a melody, of course.

in this application, it seems to me that the musicians have found exactly what is required from the balalaika, it is very accented, compared to a violinist, you know, and of course, for such music, this very accented, rhythmic instrument, such as the balalaika, of course, it’s very appropriate, why didn’t anyone think of taking this balalaika before, well, there’s also the technique of syncopation, that is, it’s like it’s all

in motion, that is, it’s a little brighter, that is, it’s not just playing, well, basically further can be developed develop, develop, very good, very interesting, it’s time to recharge, the thyroid gland is the battery of our body. cheese from the mountains, how to choose the right adyghe cheese, bloodshot eyes, hemorrhage in the eye, we will help, the program to live healthy, looks at everything. through the prism of science, tomorrow at the first, give him a brief description,

professional qualities, smart, so, good reaction, brilliant command of the german language, i was born in a ural village, i am from a christian family. killed the colonel and the mayor. now i'll kill one every day colonel, a bit weak in character, it seems to me, and very willing to add, gentlemen, what’s the matter , the elimination of kokh is of great political importance, is it worth risking such valuable agents for the sake of eliminating the bad one, based on real... events, a real intelligence officer must be prepared

to everything, on the razor's edge, the premiere of a multi-part film, soon on the first channel, he is the enemy, and you fell in love with him like a cat, you are enjoying it, dear friends, this is an anthropology podcast on the first channel, our guest is an ensemble that is so far it doesn’t really have a name, maybe you can tell us what it is? in the meantime, let me greet you on behalf of the good old balalaika and new dance music, but what other uses for the balalaika are there? well, we made a full-length film, oh, we wrote it completely, there is completely different music, yes , and now you can recreate it as a fragment of the cinematic use of the story, but we have, it turns out, there are some solo acoustic tracks recorded , that is, on an acoustic ballayka, we also used

balalaika altos and keys violin instrumentation, very interesting, they wrote live synthesizers... well, there’s a thoughtful sound , well, this is the main theme, the main theme, but it also has several parts, yes, that is, there is also a rhythm section there, remember, already on top melody, you say that you also have covers in your repertoire, well, that is, author’s versions. well-known melodies, well, play us some cover or or didn’t plan today, then let’s do what you want, we need to switch.

of course, gentlemen, here, when you have no, and of course, when you have a slide against the background of the ped, comrades in the air, there is a very, very noticeable smell of pink floyd, even if you die, but pink-fala likes, of course, we should have waited for today’s meeting with you, very interesting, that’s why you are called dark soul, just bright souul you are doing quite well, that’s enough. the soul is not dark, how could this pseudonym be translated, well, i started writing, that is, i generally began my journey with drama b with music, that is, with dark rhythms, that is, i really listened to such dark side music, and when i think like that, try it write something myself, i started writing, writing, i think, under some nickname, i also wrote something very simple, heavy, so dark soul,

cool, i told everyone about it to my friends, it was so cool, but it was 2008, and that is already. there throughout and how everything has already become boring, i think, well, i will continue to do so, for 15 years already, yes, this is music making, it turns out, well, yes, yes, well, well, in fact, now i’m writing different music, in different genres, i work there with artists, with vocalists, that is, completely as a producer myself, and therefore, i decided to leave it, to leave it as dark souls, the gift remained, yes, yes, yes, here you are, as we say, a warmonger. you don’t turn on the strings, i mean of course distortion, but the same one that we know from both pink floyd and purple, you don’t roar with the strings, it happens, well, well, how can it sound?

something like this, a balalaika with a fastbox, this is of course good, well, we have one track, it’s made in a retro style, but we didn’t include it, well, in the program today, and yes, we also have a track where it’s straight with overload there are drums with eighties fights... in each track we experiment with processing, here someone there was correcting you with a human voice, here are the ones that just sounded, yes, well, we also experiment and record our voices, and design something, a lot design, today what is the form of life for such an experimental musician, there used to be records, but today there are no records, not even... nothing to play on, there used to be albums, eight songs on an album, today it’s no longer an album, life is measured musician, but depending on the form in general, well

that is, mostly pop-partists release singles, we are also going along the same road for now, single, single, single, but for example, some artist shoots and they are expected from him to have a full-fledged, full-fledged concept of some kind, well, also 8-10 tracks maximum they make or six, that is, the minimum. and they should be united by some kind of dramaturgy, but this, why yes, yes necessarily, that is, there is no point, then it will just be a compilation of tracks from the artist, there was a time and these same ones were valued, as we said today radiofriendly, friendly for radio compositions, this meant 2 minutes, but so as not to load, today there is no such thing either, but for the radio, why not, there is, now they also play on the radio there, a radio version. somewhere on the radio, we, well, we have online radio, radio stations, some world-class djs there play exactly the drum and base track, we have it, it will be ahead, yes it will be ahead, this is a stream, but... in different ways

, someone plays on stream, someone just records online and already gives the finished show, foreign people also visit you and include you in your own, well, mostly podcasts, even mostly not in russia, not so much, well, you still need to be called something, this is a string. although in life, stepan, you understand, and this is dark souul, although in life, of course, evgeniy, but still you have to somehow, well, well, a balalaika is not written, a balalaika player is written, you can’t call yourself that, yes, no, how - something else is necessary, balalaika’s company, remember, salttykov shchedrin had such a play, something needs to be thought here, well, we think, yes, that is, right now the new project will have one name, yes, then we are uniting directly, because in one project, in fact, styopa too... is now making his solo acoustic album, on all instruments, there will be a recorder flute, and a kolymba iballaika, an acoustic balalaika, an electric balalaika and

there the music will be closer to the cinema , but maybe we’ll ask our viewers to shower you with options in their comments, that’s what you think would suit our guests as the name of the ensemble... fuck, this duet, maybe maybe, tell me, so you see, it will help, it will help you, yes, why not, why not, this track that we wrote, we will definitely release it, under the name anthropology, that’s what i call it, let’s, let’s, okay, well, then please play something else, of course,

yes, well, why are all the compositions so short, you just start to trust, you just start to get used to it. to this phrasing, like everything else, everything will end, and maybe you have to get up from the table a little hungry, maybe, in fact, you’ll be hungry for the good old balalaika, now in a new way, which sounds, and you see, raise your attention, the popularity of this as yet unnamed group, so dear friends, well then we must wish you exceptional luck in everything you do, because this is truly interesting,

the main thing for everyone. .. what these musicians are doing, this experiment is clear, it is noble, and of course, and of course relevant, as always relevant is everything that brings a second, third, fourth, tenth of youth, even to such an instrument that seems to have been known for many centuries like balalaikas, but the next number of our pity program should be belarusian , yes, what else do we have this whistle, which was always sold at fairs in the form of a nightingale, you know, what else, what other belarusian dulcimers are there, and what are belarusian hammers ? , a lot of strings, yes, yes, yes, this is it, a lyre, a wheeled one, a lyre, yes, a wheeled one, i think mulyavin had one in his hands, well, you should stay away from it for now, yes, it’s too painful, perhaps, suddenly, well , something, some kind of project will be needed, you’ll never guess what tool can

help in one situation or another, an experiment, always something, a search , an endless search, some sounds, since water is dripping from there, that’s it , that’s something, some kind of rhythm, a bicycle passed there, it has a rhythm there there’s a car honking, you’re driving, listening to some music, and somewhere a car honked, and it’s in the key, like this, this is what you can use, these are the sounds in design, somewhere, something for signals, artnois, these englishmen, tried to work in a similar vein at one time, but they went further. one record, you see, because, after all, the pitch is important, they also tried to collect, not musical, but noise sounds and from them, as i understand it, on a sampler, make harmony, well, in my opinion, in general they didn’t go beyond a certain point, well maybe you will succeed, this is new, i also remember, no one is working, and perhaps even this will help us relate to others

. what is this? have you seen this before? so, before retirement, i decided to engage in amateur activities. robert, i repeat to you once again, hands behind your back, i was not aware, that the house is under surveillance. uncle van, but we seem to have one murder. ionova, an opera singer, and in her apartment she has the same sign as our alcoholic. maniac, i guess. i'm not allowed to use that word.

here, great, comrade, there was a maniac, and now a whole sect of maniacs, brains - cherkasov’s latest case, well, boss, here we go, tomorrow after the program time, on the first day, a traveler coming to venice is more inclined to see his expectations than the city, what he exists, in the eighties of the century, carnival, peace, if the crowd doesn’t want anything, carnival is impossible, the phenomenon of a mask is difficult to understand, using a mask is a desire to change, hide, become someone else, sometimes people get the crazy idea that there is no more taboo, energy itself, what such action is not observed here,

not even close, and it seems to me that... the russians could breathe a new spirit here. confused masks wander through venetian squares and streets, but this is nothing more than the shadow of a carnival. why wear a mask if you.... can't give up on yourself. matador, venice, winter water, on friday on the first. hot ice, live broadcasts,

november 18 and 19, on the first, love figure skating, appreciate figure skating, adore figure skating. let's listen and continue to smile , touched by the sight of the good old balalaika in a new sound.

yes, well, of course, no matter how the balalaika sounds in a new way, you still want to hope, zhen , that somewhere in russia, or maybe in belarus, have you met someone... who would shock you with a virtuoso playing of this folk instrument, there were such meetings? no, let’s stop, but it’s all from the teacher, but you must have heard somewhere as a child in order to get records, records to discs back then, and now you

have students, i don’t teach now, but i taught, it was the case, but in belarus and what, well, you have children, no, but that means more? here, well, for example, you have children, yes, i have a very hyperactive child, so she comes when the studio, that’s it, there are keys, she, well, that is, she’s this tall, and so everything is on the earbuds. everything, she likes it, as it were, that is, the music, she herself has something there sings, some melodies there, and now knowing what a musician’s bread is, no, it’s not an easy bread, you would wish her to be a musician, well , that would be her choice, but in essence, you would dissuade her, no, let her be a musician, if that’s what she wants, then yes, that is, no one dissuaded me, yeah, when i was studying, my first education was in art, well, not as an artist, i mean, the faculty of performing arts, there is a theater department, that is, more

i was connected with the theater, but no one dissuaded me, i entered, graduated, then i studied further and when i was studying, i came to write music, and i liked writing arrangements, figuring it all out, how to sit and , that is, work with an artist, there with producers, and that is, we are now working at belotserkovsky’s studio, that is, he us kind of supports in terms of work, that is , well, the base is exactly where we can sit and create, and well, so do i. i work with different artists, then they come to me to record songs of different genres, that is, mostly like pop music , well, you have to make money from this, well of course it’s pop music, well, dear friends, then what can we expect from you in the near future, the release of a new project, which doesn’t have a name yet, but there are already five tracks ready, but there’s no name, but well, this will be the sixth one we did today, today yes, well anthropology, yes. well, god grant you, of course, success and god

grant you, of course, attention from the million -strong army of our television viewers, because the balalaika is, after all, ours, dear friends, it is, after all, a slavic thing, balalaika, so of course we need thank styopa that he is this instrument , which for many centuries has made relevant from the point of view of the genre of today 's electric music, well, of course, evgeniy... also knows what to do, well, dear friends, we want to join you say goodbye, but in parting you still need to listen to one more play, thank you very much , dear friends, and thank you for your attention, see you soon,

the topic we have today is serfdom, well, at first glance, purely internal affairs, but remembering klyuchevsky, who spoke about the fact that russia lagged behind the west precisely by serfdom, that is, as klyuchevsky calculated, i don’t know how for centuries, a topic, of course, directly related to the west, because everything in general in our relations with the west depended on this lag , so of course we need to talk about this, and when russia got rid of serfdom, it actually began to move closer to the west, switching to capitalist rails, and they actually wrote about this then, that russia finally got rid of slavery, and slavery called serfdom, even in official documents, of course. hello, this is a historical podcast: russia and the west on

the swing of history. with you are pyotr romanov and sergei solov, today we will deal with serfdom and its abolition, the impetus for which was also given from the west as a result of the crimean war. where does it all actually begin, e.g. serfdom in russia? the most interesting thing here is that when serfdom begins to develop in russia, in the west it begins to gradually fade away. we have. first mention of the restriction of the exit of christ on st. george's day is the week before, the week after november 26 according to the old style, this is a code of law from 1497, that is... in fact, the first mention in other documents, also under the reign of ivan ii, dates back to an earlier period. this was also confirmed by the legal code of 1550 under ivan the terrible. we know that in 1581, as a result of the unsuccessful livonian war and the exhaustion of the country, reserved summers were introduced. temporary ban on going out in yuri per day. but there is nothing more permanent than temporary, and

this ban has become permanent. we are this fixed in 1597, when a five-year period was introduced. it’s interesting here that in soviet times it was somehow not customary to talk about this in detail, which is why it seemed that somehow russia, without a special decree, came to terms with serfdom, so a number of historians believed that there was a special decree for 5 years before the introduction of a five -year restriction for fugitives in 1592 there was a special decree, but no traces of this decree have yet been found, a search for fugitives was introduced, then boris godunov temporarily loosened the noose and allowed exit on yuri’s day, why the famine 1601, a monstrous famine, he allows a way out. vasily shuisky in 1607 again raised the term for the search of fugitives to 15 years, yes, then after the turmoil mikhail fedorovich again repeated the five-year search, in 1637 they introduced

a nine-year search, in the forty-first ten-year or even fifteen years if one landowner took the peasants away from another landowner, finally the cathedral laid down... an indefinite search for serfs was introduced, why is this happening in russia at this time? when they talk about the second edition of serfdom, this is a historical term, it occurs where the first the publication actually did not exist, but there is one, there was, unfortunately, he is no longer alive , the sociologist, historian emmanuel wallerstein, who said that on the periphery of western europe, in eastern europe, east of the elbe, it is there first of all the reason for the emergence of serfdom was formulated as follows: forced labor on the market, because the division with the economic occurred, eastern europe supplies western europe with bread, where industry is developing. it is interesting that in general they thought about the ineffectiveness of the serf

i’m right, even under anna ioannovna, taking into account, well, the fantastic idleness... she had some notes about the abolition of serfdom , i think that this is a purely economic problem, we need to deal with it somehow, that a free peasant will be more effective work, well, naturally, anna ianovna, she did not answer the smaller questions, so to speak, the requirements of the time, later , let’s say, reasoning came together , about the immorality of serfdom, the influence in many ways, of french philosophy, well, jean-jacques rousseau and so on, in general appeared

a small but layer of freethinkers who began to say that in general , this is not only ineffective, but also, so to speak , against conscience, so they thought... many, well, the freemasons, for example, also thought about it, by the way speaking, they thought that in general it would be very good, and some even released their crosses altogether, but at the same time they said that, strictly speaking, neither the peasant nor society itself is ready for this, that’s how i remember they gave such a parallel, here’s a bird, which was raised in a cage, and which is accustomed to receiving food regularly, but if this bird is suddenly released into the wild, and there is frost and hunger, then it will die, therefore, and society should be cleaner, because otherwise it will be this unfortunate peasant who will go out to the will into this is dirty.
