Shuntsov Oleg Biography

Many people know a group of Kasparyan lovers that one of the most popular drummers today, the shock of the Kino group Oleg Shuntsov ID is not only a multi -tool, but also writes music. The other day, “Maschina Records” made the circulation of the album of the project “They say galaxies” on audio cassettes. The material was recorded and published for the first time in the year and posted on the Internet to almost all music sites.

Oleg is the author of the idea of ​​the album, composer, arranger and performer. Oleg completely refutes this opinion of musical amateurs. He is a professional musician - with an excellent profile education. Oleg graduated from muses. Maimonida,- a pop-jazz department in the class of drums. Since then, Oleg Shuntsov has been participating in various projects of Yuri Kasparyan.

How did it arise? Music, arrangement, sound design, recording and playing on all instruments, vocals, information and even in some places texts. In the texts, in almost all songs, hooks and semantic variants of mine, except for the songs “between the lines” and “Spacehistory” - here the texts are completely Ilya Lankina. Ilya is very talented, he has very sincere romantic poems.

Like a steep pro, he finished the texts of the songs of the album where I had only ideas, what the song should be about, or only the chorus. Initial information was mine. The studio already took place, so to speak, information. Victor Bulatov was reduced to the studio. A very cool sound engineer, musician, multi -instrumentalist with extensive experience in both concerts and in the studio.

Victor appeared partly by the Sound Produsser, mixed the Semplers to the drums where it was necessary, since I wrote down the drums at my point, not in studio conditions. I would like to tell a little about the rest of the musicians who took part in the creation of the album. Polina Kasyanova is one of the most popular jazz singers of our time. Unique and very gifted.

He writes his music, very cool. I hope to participate in her project in the future. Polina, too, appeared partly the producer. I came up with backing vocals in two songs, gave me the right advice on how to sing the main voice. Timur Nekrasov is one of the most famous saxophonists in our country. I am very in demand, plays as a soloist with different compositions and jazz orchestras completely different music.

A very cool experienced musician. Timur and I played, by the way, in gr. Dmitry Maksimov - is one of the best bass of the guitarists in Russia. I outplayed with a very large number of musicians- from jazz, fusion, fan to pop, rock stars of the Russian and foreign scene. Dmitry writes his music electronic and not electronic. To record electronic tracks, he uses analog synthesizers, dramas, etc., of course, Alexei Busurin, vocalist, arranger, composer, poet, frontman of the Fruit kefir group should be mentioned.

Lesha came up with the name - "They say galaxies." The idea of ​​the project itself "They say the Galaxy" was originally it. It was supposed to be a site project of participants in Gr. But everything somehow faded over time, everyone had their own affairs and the project faded itself, not having time to arise. I liked the name, so I decided to use it, with the permission of Alexei of course.

The album was made by one of the highest famous masters of mastering - Boris Istomin. Spase influenced?

Or is it another music, in itself completely? Oleg: - Space and Maruani - no, in no case, never listened to them and I don’t know who Maruani is. Apparently what I listen to, it influenced. I listen to a lot of different things. This is such an experimental project. Now I would not record a synth. Oleg: - I wanted to make an album, since there was a lot of material.

Act as a composer, arranger, producer. Initially, I was not going to sing myself. In demo versions, my vocals were spelled out. He asked some very good vocalists and vocalists to see, but almost everyone said that I needed to sing myself. Therefore, I also had to record the main vocals. Oleg: Yes. But for the most part it will be instrumental and the music I hope it will be more serious - more to the music of Fuzn than to Indie.

Oleg: - I do not plan to play this material at concerts, but if a demand arises suddenly, I may collect the composition. I wanted to know your opinion about the music of the cinema group, you often listen to it not “at work”, let's say so? When did you first hear and what was the impression of Tsoi? At home was vinyl album "Night". We really loved our company with a movie group and played these songs at school entertainment events.

Then, over time, they began to play their material. Therefore, today these compositions of the cinema, which we are working on in projects, are also part of me, my childhood and the musical reality of our days.
