learn_russianThis isn't really a language question, feel free to delete it if it's deemed inappropriate. But I'm looking for Russian pop music, something that would be on popular radio. I like Tatu but I've heard most of their songs and I'm looking for something new. Even if it's cheezy, Britney-style pop it might be fun to hear in Russian. Individual song titles and group/singer names would be appreciated!

There's also Nochnie Snaipery, who are sort of the Russian Indigo Girls. And Vesna na Ulitse Karla Iukhana, who were discovered by Morcheeba or some other big trip-hop act, and now have a cd out.

Date: 2003-06-18 11:23 am (UTC)I wrote it as simply ж because that is how I've seen the letter j on it's own transliterated. Example: ЛЖ-Кат [LJ-Cut]. Similarly, the Esperanto word for "DJ" is DĴ; the letter ĵ being pronounced like the French j/Russian ж. I'm not saying you're wrong, you're Russian appears much better than mine.
Also, thank you for the recommendations!

Date: 2003-06-18 11:39 am (UTC)U're welcome. By the way Гости Из Будущего is most oftenly transliterated as Gosti Iz Buduschego (in case u want to look up for their songs in some peer-to-peer programs and such).

Date: 2003-06-18 12:01 pm (UTC)It's not exactly what u want, but I'd say:
Я не (так) хорошо говорю по-русски.
I don't speak Russian (that) well.
Or:
Я чуть-чуть говорю по-русски.
I speak English a little bit.
I'm not sure of what u meant by "Request in English".

Re:
Date: 2003-06-18 12:06 pm (UTC)I was going to put that in an LJ-Cut, I'm making a request for something in a Russian-language community. So, I just need the word for "Request" but I can manage without it. Thank you.
Yes [y] is a bit of a nightmare =/

Date: 2003-06-18 12:44 pm (UTC)Yeah, I tried pronouncing these pairs, it's hard! The sounds are so "close" to one another! For Western people it's hard to make a difference. I know it though, but to pronounce it is another thing!

Date: 2003-06-18 02:03 pm (UTC)I just remembered about other Russian dance bands I like.
There's Demo/Демо and Lada Dance/Лада Денс. Демо have a really cool single called Солнышко/Solnyshko.
There's also Lena Perova/Лена Перова, whose songs aren't maybe that "cheezy" but u'll probably like them. She has a duet with Гости из Будущего, the song is called "Там Где Веснa".
There are also these bands I barely know:
- Ruki Vverh/Руки Вверх
- Revolvers/Revoльvers (that's how it's spelt on the MP3 I have of them at least).
Would u be interested in a Bulgarian "cheezy" band? :o)

I use http://www.russianbeat.com to hear samples of music before purchasing a CD. However, their stuff is overpriced. Generally, I only pay $5-7 for a Russian CD.

Date: 2003-06-18 03:15 pm (UTC)On comments below:
Unlike Alsou (IMHO, of course), Zemfira takes care of her SOUND, her LYRICS and, eventually, MUSIC.
:)) Perhaps, my opinion is of certain value, for I've never been a Zemfira fan.
