about

"The Flat Polish Holes: Mystery Of The Black Box" is one of the darkest works of Bulgarians, imbued with some absolutely transcendental dark melancholy and suicidal drive. "Mystery Of The Black Box" as the key to the door of Death, where each will find his own personal hell. The avant-garde lo-fi songs "Lullaby" and "Eesona", bordering the kitsch, is replaced by volumetric ritual ambient canvases, as if illustrating the contrast of The Being where rotting corpses on Golden Thrones are mixed with homeless, which steals cat canned food on the background of white smiles of pop stars. Especially distinguished is the track "New Boots" (the absurdity of names is a firm feature of Bulgarians, however, emphasizing their relationship with the Russian literary avant-garde of the Silver Age), which creates a landscape of certain prenatal State where all is equal: the absolute knowledge, and the absolute fear, and the inhuman peace. As for the "Allergy" track — it can be called one of the first Post-Soviet experience in the "death industrial" genre.

Connoisseurs know that this project is a milestone in the history of the Russian underground, one of the founders of Post-Soviet industrial, example of uncompromising musical avant-garde, sonic experimentation and manipulation with mind.

We signed a contract with Alexander Chulkov, a member of the original group and direct copyright holder, under which our label is the only official publisher of all early "Bulgarian" stuff recorded prior to the tragic death of Alexey Chulkov — Alexander’s younger brother and the founding member of the project, including self-released cassette albums, lost songs and other stuff.

The first and only official edition of the legendary records.

"Ровные Польские Дыры: Тайна Чёрного Ящика" — одна из самых мрачных работ Болгар, проникнутая какой-то совершенно запредельной тоской и суицидальным драйвом. "Тайна Чёрного Ящика" как ключ к дверям Смерти, за которыми каждого ждёт свой собственный индивидуальный ад. Авангардный лоу-фай композиций "Луллабу" и "Еесона", граничащий с китчем, сменяется объёмными ритуальными эмбиент-полотнами, словно иллюстрируя контраст самого бытия, где смешиваются гниющие трупы на золотых тронах и бомжи, ворующие кошачьи консервы, на фоне белоснежных улыбок поп-звезд. Особенно выделяется композиция "Новые Сапоги" (абсурдность названий — это фирменный ход Болгар, вместе с тем подчеркивающий их связь и с литературным авангардом Серебряного века), которая создает ландшафт некого предродового состояния, где одинаково равновелики и абсолютное знание, и абсолютный страх, и абсолютный нечеловеческий покой. Композицию же "Аллергия" можно смело назвать первым отечественным опытом в жанре "death industrial".

Ценители знают, что данный проект — это целая веха в истории российского андеграунда, одни из родоначальников пост-советского индастриала, пример бескомпромиссного музыкального авангардизма, звуковых экспериментов и манипуляций с сознанием.

С Александром Чулковым, прямым правообладателем и участником оригинального состава Болгар, подписан договор, в соответствии с которым наш лейбл отныне является единственным официальным издателем всего раннего «болгарского» материала, записанного до трагической смерти Алексея Чулкова, включая кассетный самиздат, потерянные композиции и прочее.

Первое и единственное официальное издание легендарных записей.
