about

Now available for pre-order: the long awaited second edition of Svitlana Nianio’s Lisova Kolekciya. Originally issued on LP back in 2017, this second run of 300 copies features updated artwork and was manufactured by Optimal Media (sadly the original pressing plant had destroyed the mother plates so we had to start from scratch). Direct sales will ship from 7th July. Wholesale enquiries should be directed to Forced Exposure (USA) and Morr Music (rest of world).

Svitlana Nianio has been active in the Ukrainian and Polish underground music scenes since the early '90's both as a solo artist and a prominent member of the now disbanded avant-rock outfit Cukor Bila Smert (Sugar White Death). Her music draws on aspects of modern composition and traditional Slavic music, with songs and experiments from that early period culminating in the 1999 album Kytytsi (Koka Records, Poland). Prior to that in 1995, Nianio recorded Lisova Kolekciya (Forest Collection) live in a simple home studio setting with Olexander Yurchenko and Konstantin Nazarenko.

Less indebted to folk tradition than Kytytsi, Lisova Kolekciya was performed using Casio keyboards, electronics, and voice, positioning itself more inline with Terry Riley's Shri Camel in its otherworldly reinterpretation of the ancient through modern means. Retaining aspects of traditional music in its use of spare instrumentation and haunting vocal melodies, this largely unknown album pushes at the edges of what folk music might be, resulting in music previously described as being "deeply rooted in primeval myths, creating a world of magic realism, in which the temporal dimension and the other world constantly move and permeate."

Issued by Skire officially for the first time in 2017, after an extremely limited private cassette edition handed out to friends in 1996 - where the recording was twinned with the album Znayesh Yak? Rozkazhi (Know How? Tell Me) - this second edition of Lisova Kolekciya comes packaged in a full colour offset printed sleeve featuring artwork by Svitlana Nianio and is limited to 300 copies.

impossible to categorise, as individual as Nico's harmonium era or post-debut Björk, where percussive use of stringed instruments like the dulcimer added to drone-like organ, and a vocal that stretches from soprano hymn-like chorale to harsh wails & screams, moving from infant to animal. Individual, idiosyncratic, often childlike & playful, & utterly compelling in the way it creates its own sonic world, of which one may merely enter & behold. Surrender rather than comprehend. agutterfan
