A lazy drumming and the hazy sleek, charismatic low voice of Taraz Kuznetsov carry the song โMy Revolutionโ with ease. The music is quite relaxing and confident compared to the context it conveys. My Revolution is about the Ukrainiansโ revolution against the Russian Invasion. Red Bird Rising has collaborated with Taraz to create this effortless masterpiece. Add to it their music video, and it ends up looking even more coherent with the context and perspective provided.
The use of acoustic guitar at the beginning of โMy Revolutionโ creates a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, drawing the listener in and setting the stage for the powerful vocals that follow. Tuznetsovโs voice is almost callous, with smug confidence in his low timbre, with a range that spans from soft and tender to raw and intense. Especially in the bridge, do we realize the excellent direction he has with his vocal capacity. There is a good reason behind choosing Taraz Kuznetsov as the lead vocalist. He himself faced Russian brutality living in Odesa, Ukraine.
The songโs lyrics speak to the struggles of fighting for change in the face of oppression and injustice, and Tuznetsovโs performance captures the sense of passion and determination that are at the heart of the song. Speaking of oppression, the music video captures many destructive details of the war and how Ukraine is now left with the spoils of it all.
Give โMy Revolutionโ by Red Bird Rising featuring Taraz Kuznetsov a listen if you want to comprehend the perfectly detailed scenario of the war and the Ukrainian resilience.
