Album Notes

So, who the **** is Alex?

Alex ... is unmatchable musician and songwriter...
...songs are three-minute masterpieces, bridging the gaps between rock, pop, and classical music. A one-man band, he has a keen ear for melody and a true gift for orchestration, meshing pretty strings with ripping guitar lines and colorful keyboard crescendos. The songwriter owes as much to Yes and Queen as he does to composers like Tchaikovsky and Debussy, and while his songs bear these imprints, they are unmestakably his own.

Rodell Records. Hollywood

Meshing Soul vocal melodies with eighties style metal guitar riffs, this is an outrageously unexpected melting pot of styles. Alex hails from the former Soviet Union where he honed his skills as a guitarist, song writer and vocalist. Perhaps it is this distance from the contemporary music scene that allows him to blend styles in this completely new way, perhaps he's just a genius. The sounds sit strangely together, yet there is an undeniable catchiness that will have you listening up for more...A little bit like you would to Rappers Delight if you are old enough to remember that!

Matchbox Records. Oxford

It has not always be swinging for music to get to you. Guitarist Alex Pavlikov has demonstrated on Open-stage-rally organized by Gynaika, that virtuosity and integrity have been sufficient.
