E-GENS will Take part and will perform in the concert dedicated to the memory of Alexei Neuromancer. He was the founding member of the famous Russian band NEXUS VI. The concert will be held in Tomsk - the hometown of Alexei on 12 April, on the day of the remarkable Russian Holiday called The Cosmonautics Day. We believe that the date chosen for this concert fits the occasion very well. After all, electronic music and the cosmos are some of the verges considered to be of great importance by many people. The aspiration to discover the mysteries of the universe have always existed in the history of humankind. Let there be glory to all space discoverers! Let there be eternal memory for you Alex!

e-gens - Fine! Shine! Lyrics (English-Russian) (pdf)
Fine! Shine! - new album by Titkov Eugene and Eugene Komarov and the
first (debut) album of e-gens project
The first track, Fine! Shine! gave name to the whole album. It was created
in a hospital in the department of Cardiology, where Eugene Titkov lay on
the survey. It was just a song with words and the main melody. Eugene Titkov
not had not slept it was one of the longest nights in his life. There was a
60 year old patient, seemingly crazy, walking down the hallway and was
reading some touching love poems to a young nurse. In the next section, a
patient lay sleeping with a sick heart, yet the doctors at the Emergency
Care worked to save lives. Some of the expected and unexpected events in
such a place allowed a vivid picture of the struggle for life and happiness
to cross Eugene Titkov's mind, both for Eugene himself and for others. As
Eugene Titkov has said, many of the characters and events in this song is
very closely associated with an alternative history of the Earth, carefully
implemented in the famous TV series Battlestar Galactica. Being at the
hospital did not stop the work on the song and it was first done by mobile
phone from the Cardiology department's corridor.
Music basis of the second track - I Can Touch the Sun - was established in
late 2008, and was finally completed in summer 2009. Idea of the song was
born many years ago, in 1990 and was a blank verse called "The Suit" to
read: "Once again I put on my outrage and disgrace from his former suit from
the primeval forest, his old clothes that will hide anything that reminds
you of b my beast of your circle, with you running in fear. I again put on
his costume. This glorious dress wild steppe, the dull thud of hoofs on the
ground, sky, twinkling starry rain. I again donned his suit lone pine tree
standing, illuminated magic moon. Once again I sing your song. Everything
flows, everything changes. Only the values remain the same". With the new
words, the song has received a more positive sense, and it better conveys
the value of e-gens essence.
Music of the third track - The Song of Sky Gear - is the most "ancient" for
its time of creation. It was established in October 2003. This was the first
topic that came up with Eugene Titkov after 14 years of silence, impressed
with new works from artists such as A-ha, Erasure, and others. "But we do
not live someone else's images", - said Eugene Titkov, - «Just give impetus
to the modern masters, strengthen faith. Much older influences of artists
such as: SPACE, U-vox, and DROIDS are used in the song The Song of Sky Gear.
But this by itself is not very important. This song contains the real anthem
of romantic existentialist. Listening to it, one is inspired by the will to
live life to the fullest. This rejection of the bindings in the past and the
belief in the future."
Track 4 - We Change - was the first fruit of our collective creativity. The
momentum was set bu Eugene Titkov in the form of a simple driven theme "We
Will Rock You" (Queen). Then Michael Drozdetsky came at it with a completely
different point of view, which I picked up on and turned it into the verse
melody, and eventually the chorus. Eugene Komarov was responsible for
creating all the arrangements. The song We Change was an original
arrangement in May 2008, only one month after its first first sketches.
After experiencing some minor problems with the lyrics and vocals, it caused
it to be completed a month later, resulting in a radically different energy
for the chorus than we had anticipated from the start. The final version of
the verse melody was proposed by Eugene Komarov. E-gens gives great
importance to the content of each song both in its text and main melody,
carefully differing the song from all the other tracks. We Change - is a song
about life in a mainstream world full of lies, and how one can resist
changing themselves. This hymn is to real changes.
Track 5 - Breath a Forgiving - was actually the 7th song created. Eugene
Komarov came up with the main bass chorus and immediately turned his idea
into a great arrangement. Eugene Titkov only had to come up with the melody
verse and chorus and unveil one of the most conceptual texts of the group.
This song is dedicated to finding the unconditional divine love that each of
us wants to find in this life. The words Breath of Forgiving confidently
hold you to the world of sincere feelings experienced by the people who love
each other until death.
Track 6 - That Is Your Prize - was the third song created on the album.
Surprisingly, this track came about quite accidentally when Eugene Komarov was
establishing 15 account versions of the arrangements for Save the Love, one
of e-gens first songs. The text and melody were generated by Eugene Titkov
on his way to work while listening to some rough arrangements of Save the
Love. It was as if poetry had poured down from heaven. Most of the text was
written during instantaneous correspondence on ICQ. We were very impressed
with the results. This song is about love karmic issue between a man and a
woman. As far as love can be selfish? So, that might not be love. That's
what this song.
"Heart to Heart" (the 7th track on the album) was almost entirely created by
Eugene Komarov. Eugene Titkov came up with the chorus melody; it was
inspired by the magnificent theme verse and perfect romantic arrangement
which they improved upon. This is a conceptual song says Eugene Titkov.
Melting Away was the original former name of the song. The original lyrics
went: "I have something to lose with each passing day more and more. All
this run away through me at a furious pace, taking my particles with him.
I’m like a palace conceal from the sand, the surf wash events, the winds of
time eroded conceal. I’m melting away. Trying to stand still conceal. So,
from me, one thing remains lifeless body. Everything else remains in
history. But you know, not the body I worry, but that will leave in the
past. This is my story. It is my eternity. And I'm afraid to leave there the
same lifeless, desolate something, stuffed to overflowing matter. It is
scary to watch
the story birth in the future. My body will be in the future,
a symbol of this story. I have something to lose with every passing day more
and more..."
8th album track, I'm Your Guide was created by Eugene Komarov in late 2008.
Eugene Titkov provided the text and vocals. The chorus and verse were sung
in two different energy options. Moreover, there is another version of the
text and the manner of singing. As always,
e-gens have decided to leave the
option in the album where vocals were brighter on the senses, where a finer
job.
Save the Love-the 9th track of the album was the 2nd song written in the
spring of 2007. The song was based on the theme established by e-gens 2003
immediately after waking from hibernation and the creation of their first
Fire in One. Eugene Titkov said: "I love this topic so far. Pity not been
realized in the original form. Only issue chorus is a bit like the original.
It was the most difficult track on alterations and refinements. But a good
song is. This is a song that often happens to people, one feels that love is
dying and does its utmost to save it. "We believe e-gens, said Eugene
Komarov, - love - a living thing, always scared when she dies. And if there
is a chance to save her, it is better to use it."
Lastly, track 10, My Heart is Calling was founded in feb. 2007. At its
creation in draft form, with the arrangements and selected sounds, it took
no more than 2 hours to form. The music was born, as if from nowhere Eugene
Titkov says, "I came to the studio after my main job. We drank some brandy
and I became exhausted and fell asleep". Eugene played music together for
something. Upon awakening, I said - Why are we not doing music? What
prevents us? That's cool! Was immediately set up a theme has acquired
sounds. My soul soared and sang - my heart is calling you! ". Initially it
was natural intro track with laconic bass and funky effects. But then Eugene
Komarov suggested that even a bass and a song, as if acquired a sliding
drive. Eugene Titkov said: "It was a track where I put my voice. As a result, was born at no
similar manner to which I am proud of." This is a song - a symbol of the
city of romance, of strength and beauty of love, entwined with the harmony
of the urban world, in which she was born and lives. |
