Sergey Zhukov - "In Search of tenderness"

Since the publication of the last solo album of Sergey Zhukov as "Territory. Tenderness" a little more than three years, in which a life of the famous composer and pop idol made of thousands of Russian girls drastic changes in all sizes. First, the group broke up, "Hands up!" Sphere of commercial interests Zhukov Entertainment segment Hardcore, Sergei handles expanded production activities and gave the land to the "two-factor" and the lesser-known guys from the band "fairy tale." But the most difficult period of Sergei comes at a time of divorce to his wife, and related mental health problems in his personal life. It is these moments of acute emotional left their mark on the sound of the new album "In Search of tenderness." Sergey Zhukov - "In Search of tenderness" Format: CD. Genre: Pop Style: Synth-pop, R & B, Hip-Hop, Russian pop, tango, electro-pop. Subject: love experiences, romantic dreams. Mood: lyrical, fun. Hit: "dripping tears (JAVA RMX)", "The girl does not sleep." Past experience shows that on a solo album Zhukov experimenting with sound, music and the most successful solutions in the future on the album using "Hands up." Finally,. After the second solo album by Zhukov on the record, "I am with thee well" appeared and R'n'B track, and non-standard heavy guitar passages and conceptual vocal samples and pure dance routines But that was then - is history, now Zhukov an album that a regular publication may have imagined, "Hands up!": The minimum number of fundamental changes and focuses the sound, several strong hits and always whiny songs. Album, the cover of which was released in three versions, opens the song "Let's hide with you about rain ...", probably dedicated to the former spouse. Be that as it may, Zhukov very recognizable song: it's still true bills and a real "good" emotional message. And these distinctive characteristics, combined with a severe history is unlikely to contribute to the success of the song on the radio - even notorious for rotating format requires more than just simple things. And those presented on the hard drive, and not even a single specimen. Sergey Zhukov - "In Search of affection" was "asleep Girl on" with three different covers of songs "dripping tears" and published last summer sounded almost every iron and a clip of the last successfully spun in the central music channels. But the "Tango" with the track "Kontachtes" on the contrary, has hardly hit potential. First of all, these songs are experimental, "Tango" is a kind of symbiosis R'n'B and Argentine tango, and "Kontachtes" - banter about the widespread phenomenon of social networks in runet. Sergey Zhukov - "In Search of affection" was with three different covers in the two duets album - with a little-known myagkogolosoy "Hysteria" ("I do not like"), and the soloists of the "Guest from the Future" by Eva underfloor heating ( "Why are you talking about love"). On the whole, the album "Finding Tenderness" - a dozen songs, the arrangements, the color and sounding acoustic guitar and lush keyboards and electronic samples are fashionable. There is only one fundamental difference between the album "In Search of tenderness" and previous solo albums. Presented by release at the beginning of the circumstances described was personal, and only two "formatted" hit economically justified exception.
