The Byrds Music

Our staff are often asked about the impact that had on our classic rock music, and, in particular, rock music of 60-70s. Classic – it's something that never goes out of fashion, on it and the classics. Because of the influence the share of inspiration, which has brought and continues to bring classic rock music in the work of our team is hard to overestimate. It is worth to explain what we mean by classic rock in general. Homeland rock can be called America, but American rock music was not entirely original. Greatly influenced by her British influences, later – "British invasion", which will be the beginning of formation of a new stage in rock music.

'Father' of rock considered to be a rock 'n' roll was born in the late 40s in America and has incorporated the features of blues, jazz, country and boogie-woogie. After 10-odd years on the scene there are the ones we later called the legends of world rock music and American rock Music will open for a new page of history, a page called "rock music of 60-70s." The Beatles, The Rolling stones, The Byrds, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Bob Dylan – to name a few names that can not forget, speaking of the rock music of 60-70s and about who inspires us and continue to inspire our creativity. American rock music of this period distinctive by the fact that at this time there were many subgenres and direction of rock: punk rock, hard rock, avant-garde. Jazz-rock, Latin rock, raga-rock. It was a great era in rock music, combining lyricism and drive. We are also often asked whether the fact that rock music of 60-70s influenced, and found a map in our work, the fact of our disrespect for Russian rock musicians. Of course, it is not.

Russian rock singers and musicians in other words playing in the genre of "Russian rock" certainly worthy of respect, and creativity of many of them are classic rock music, but rock music other has other features and a different spirit. Russian rock – a genre completely original, self-contained, but little is absorbed from the rock music, whose origins date back to the days of the birth of rock 'n' roll. The current situation is such that music is simplified. As is known, the simpler the text and melody, the easier it is perceived by the song, the easier it is to make it popular. This trend is showing us not only pop musicians, but also Russian rock singers. Under the pressure of global simplification classic rock music ceases to be something natural, and it becomes something unique. Every generation has its pluses and minuses, and minus the present is that for the sake of popularity in the victim brought quality. But, as mentioned at the beginning of the note, the classics do not go out of style, quality music always finds its audience, even if not massive. And our team, in turn, will try to continue focus on quality and an audience that can appreciate it.
