Biography
2019 - a sign year and for the Retuses group itself, which philologists and teachers of the Russian language and literature should be grateful to the acquaintance of students with the work of Sergey Yesenin, and for their fans. In the spring, after a 6-year-old silence, a new, fourth studio album was released, explaining the causes and consequences of so long silence. And in the summer, the team noted a solid date - 12 years from the date of foundation.The history of creation and composition
Cottage - a place where people can get acquainted and to begin to love, be friends or cooperate, in cities would calmly not noticate and past each other. The last two cases - just about the future creators of The Retuses, because Kirill Nazarov lived then in Tver, and Mikhail Rodionov was listed by Muscovite.
In the summer of 2007 (thanks to the festive recording of 2019 in the official community of the team in VKontakte, there is a reasonable and accurate day - July 30) in bright heads guys have come no less bright idea about creating their own music in the genre of Folk, which first was recorded on the recorder from Camera.
Back in 2012, the frontman spoke in an interview about what the history of the team creation began: "It all lasted from July to August. Then Kirill began prepare for admission to the university, and I continued to write songs yourself. In the future, I began to expand, to me other guys joined me: Misha Lviv, Danya Mudrik, Cyril Parastaev, Lera Savelyev and Sasha Adela. So the group appeared. "
The composition of the team periodically changed, for example, in June 2019, on the stage of the capital Bosco Fresh Fest, she came out in the following form: a permanent vocalist of Rodionov, his neighbor and long-time friend in school - guitarist Ivan Ivannikov, Basist Mudrik, Drummer Maxim Prokofiev and keyboard player Mikhail Mishchenko .
As for the name, it was chosen by the leader by chance: on the Internet, a botanical term was somehow came to his eyes: "This is a kind of wood leaf, having a pressure at the end. On the other hand, I thought that it was still consonant with the word of the ratings. I always say that this is a non-serious name for serious music. I am very used to Retuse, it is as part of me. "
Music
The discography of the group began with the debut album Echo, fully consisting of 11 English-speaking tracks. As Rodionov confessed later, songs in Russian - this is a kind of challenge to itself, as they give him harder, and he always preferred to listen to foreign performers.The next plate, published 2 years after the first, is notable for the fact that the singles of it are named after settlements. For example, Angerburg is a city in Poland, Tapiau and Insterburg - in the Kaliningrad region of Russia, etc. By the way, the video on Tilsit was removed by the director Pavel Ruminov ("About love. Only for adults"), created clips Zemfire, "Mummy Troll" , Dolphin, "Underwood" and Silence Kit.
The third "Studio" contained the compositions entitled by the "names" of the constellations - Cassiopeia, Virgo, Gemini, Lira and others. Shortly after Astra's release, Mikhail decided to dissolve The Retuses and make a solo career, but afterwards former colleagues were still reunited.
A special place in the works of Sergey Alexandrovich Yesenin ("Letter to the Woman", "the fire of Blue ...", "Shagana, Shagana! .."), "Shagana," Shagana! .. "), for which the listeners are unmistakably recognized by performers. However, according to Rodionov, he would have released now, it would be invariably associated with the classic. And this is good, and hurt.
The Retuses now
March 22, 2019 OMYT appeared. The material to Him began to gather another five years earlier, but in connection with the internal state and change of interests of Rodionov, the release of the album had to be postponed.
"If during Echo and Waltz Baltika! I was engaged in music, because I enjoyed the game itself and the recording process, then Astra and Omyt is an escapherism and a forced measure, "he added.
