Vlad

Music has the ability to transform, heal and speak to the soul. And when it transcends itself, music is no longer music but rather the truth and philosophy of life. This is true essence of highly accomplished guitarist, arranger, producer - Vlad (Loony Pelen, Tea Fan Club, Forte, Ruslana.). Beyond any musical boundaries, his creations can be described as Contemporary World Fusion, combining a mixture of sounds, from World, Jazz, Pop, Symphonic, Soul and more. Now weave together all of life's richness and add hues of color and layers of texture. This is what is heard in each of Vlad's works - each song a different experience and each note a different moment expressed. - Orpheus Records
"Vladosphere" reviews:
SmoothJazz.com Review:
What a refreshing collection of music from Ukrainian-born multi-instrumentalist Vlad, who now resides in Northern California, where most of VLADOSPHERE was created! This is quite an exceptional album, ranging from Smooth Jazz instrumental music that reminds me of Craig Chaquico's style, to almost classical or new age, but always lyrical and uplifting. With a background as a drummer from the age of 7, and a guitarist from age 13, this truly gifted musician captures a feel in his music that only the greats before him have managed. Wrap yourself in the pensive beauty of "Maybe.," take in the soaring joy and positive vibe of VLADOSPHERE's first radio hit, "Little Star," or chill to the smooth ambience of "What If." It's all good, it's all quality.brilliantly performed and produced. This is definitely a disc to just slip into your player and thoroughly absorb. It's not just the music.it's the whole aura Vlad has created here, that's so captivating. There's plenty of variety in tempo and feel to keep you intrigued from beginning to end. Personally, I recommend spending some quality time in Vlad's world.the VLADOSPHERE! It is, indeed, a most pleasant, inspirational place to be.
