Rjabinuska - Music

Vrelo Was Founded By Nataša Tomić At The Very Beginning Of 1999 In Ruma Serbia. During That Period It Was Purely Female Vocal Group That Performed The Traditional Music Of The Ancient Serbia. Next Year Was The Year When This Vocal Group Became A Vocal-Instrumental Ethno Ensemble Vrelo Containing 18 Female Vocals And 7 Musicians On Traditional Instruments. Up To 2003 VIEE Vrelo Explores Studies And Works On The Serbian Folklore Material And Of The Other Slavonic Peoples And During This Period Their Music Has Several Phases. Vrelo Performs Several Solo Concerts Records Several Musical TV Shows And Appears On Music Festivals. They Also Recorded A CD Which Is Not Officially Published Named Uzde Na Belo. The Fall Of 2003 Brought Many Changes Into The Group. Stanko Tomić Brought Up An Idea Which Totally Changed The Way Of Work Approach And Music Concept Of Vrelo. Namely The Vocal-Instrumental Ethno Ensemble Was Transformed Into A Band. The Traditional Music Substance Was No Longer Used As The Basis Of Their Work But As The Motif. The Reduction - Minimalistic Approach Big Semibreves Big Blocks … Adjustedness And Nakedness Of The Expression Through Only Two Instruments Bass Guitar And Drums And Backing Tracks At One Side And Six Voices Which Move Between Old Patterns And Modern Expresion On The Other Side Make Vrelo A Part Of The World Music By Relying On The Identity And Authenticity Of Slavic Music. After Entering BBC's The Next Big Thing 2007 Vrelo Was Chosen Among Over 2500 Performers From 88 Countries To Play In London At MAIDA VALE Studio And Won 2nd Place Of This Prestigeous Competition. Vrelo Published Their First Album Named Preko Reke At The End Of August 2008 For The Most Influential Serbian Record Label PGP RTS.
