Group "China": biography, composition

Most recently, at the peak of the youth fashion was the emo movement. Hundreds of guys and girls were growing long bangs, changing the entire wardrobe to pink and black things and completely immersed in this subculture. It is also justified that in that period informal groups began to appear, creating the appropriate music and falling under this style. Perhaps the most popular and successful of the new collectives of that period could be the "China" group.

Biography of the collective

The history of the group can be traced from around 2007, and by 2012 it ceased to exist. The final design of the team of 4 musicians was received just in the year of creation, and after that they began to refer to themselves as the "China" group. Their biography is not full of frequent changes in the composition, the departure of soloists or musicians. Perhaps the reason for this is that they did not last a very long time. The participants themselves believe that the group "China" was so stable, because in it came like-minded people with similar tastes and concepts in music. Plus, the guidance of an experienced producer has been noted, which prevented disagreements and quarrels from appearing within the group. The only change was the departure of the original drummer, but it occurred at the earliest stage of development. This replacement of the participant contributed to the fact that the group "China" gained its popularity.

Soloist of the collective

Guitarist and simultaneously responsible for the vocals in the group was Grisha Raduga. If you rely on his story about your life, you can conclude that it is versatile in their hobbies and, like many creative people, absolutely not tolerating control from others around. The soloist of the group "China" initially engaged in martial arts, in which he achieved considerable success. Music entered his life only after 14 years. Then he entered a music school and chose this lesson for himself. Devoting a lot of time to creativity, he paid little attention to study and communication with the people around him. Perhaps because of this, in his own words, he had frequent conflicts inside the school. The Gothic style and romance of the gloom so captivated the soloist that he literally was fully committed to conform to all the canons of the trend.

Other participants

In addition to the soloist, the group "China" consists of three more people - two guitarists and a drummer. Each of them himself told about his life and about the appearance in the ensemble. For example, Pasha Skittles - (guitarist) was in the composition at the invitation of the soloist. Before that, his musical career was not very successful. The guy tried himself in another group, but she broke up very quickly and had almost no success. Another participant is Sonia Fink, the only girl and also a bass player. She, in her own interview, was in childhood a completely domestic girl, who was fond of dancing, music and embroidery. Her life changed her acquaintance with Grisha, after which they began a strong friendship. The dream of creating a team has always fascinated friends. As a result, the group "China" appeared. The composition of the band would be incomplete without the drummer Sergei Dzhusa. The guy was the last of the guys, he became the fixing link in the team.

Music of the group

Style, which suits the work of this team, can be called punk rock. Elements of emo culture had a strong influence on both the sound and lyrics of the songs themselves. It was the coincidence of the style of the collective and the desires of the youth at that time that was the reason for the success that his music received. The group "China" performs songs not only in Russian, but also in its repertoire there are English texts or individual elements in compositions. Sometimes her work is equated with the band Tokio Hotel, calling it a simplified Russian version. However, differences can still be found, and the images of the children are not completely copied.

Producer

The biggest success that young performers can count on is to get to the famous producer, who will be able to provide them with promotion and fame. In the case of the group "China" they were lucky after meeting Maxim Fadeev. This is one of the most successful producers in Russia, from under the hands of which a very large number of stars appeared on the domestic scene. His popularity is due to Glucose, the group "Silver" and many other collectives and singers. With the group "China" Fadeev also acted as a director of clips, for which she later received various nominations.

Achievements of the team

Throughout the history of the group's existence, the guys managed to release four clips that received wide popularity and love of the audience. In 2009, according to the version of one of the well-known magazines, the collective "China" became a shock of the year, that is, a group that literally after the appearance became instantly popular. And nevertheless the most important song will always be the composition "After the Rain". It was she who brought the guys the "Best Song of the Year 2010" award and made them the idols of the informal youth. This song can be heard in the screensavers to some serials.

The next clip of the band called "Autumn" was able to get the second place in the nomination for the best video in 2010. After such a wide popularity, the group in question began to tour the cities of Russia, gathering numerous fans. Despite the fact that the peak of popularity has already passed, the group has a whole army of fans. Her songs still sound in the radio. It is worth noting that the creative work of the collective is not only popular among young people. Among all ages there are people who like the compositions of this once very popular band.
