Quest pistols show different participants. The complete history of the composition of the Quest Pistols show group

Anton Savlepov - Ukrainian musician and showman, former vocalist groups Quest Pistols. Now the soloist is a member of the Agon team. In 2016, Savlepov made his debut as a jury member and mentor in the popular X Factor talent show.

Anton was born in the village of Kovsharovka, located in the Kharkov region. At the age of six, the boy was sent to a ballroom choreography studio, and since then Anton has not parted with music and dancing. As a teenager, Savlepov became interested in the work of the American pop idol, began to wear outrageous clothes, grew long hair and changed his dance style to breakdancing.

After school, Anton went to Kyiv and entered the Kiev National University culture and art at the choreographic department. True, he did not have a chance to fully study at the university. Just a month later, the head contemporary ballet Quest invited Savlepov to dance group. Anton became the third member of the group of dancers, where Konstantin Borovskoy had already been accepted before him. The producer said about Anton's talent that he dances a break like no one else. With a dance group, Savlepov began a large-scale touring activity.

In the same period, the young man actively starred in music videos. An athletic figure, height above average (174 cm) and an expressive look attracted the attention of clip makers to Savlepov's person. And since Anton wore a hairstyle that was not yet very common among young people - dreadlocks, his role was strictly defined, but very much in demand.

Gradually, the popularity of ballet increased. The guys came out as backup dancers with the biggest Ukrainian, Russian and even Western show business stars. As a result, Yuri Bardash came up with the idea to turn the dance group into a musical show group. First of all, the dancers had to master the basics of vocal skills. Anton and Nikita with a teacher were engaged in vocals, and Borovsky was assigned the role of a rapper.

Music

In 2007, the vocal trio Quest Pistols was founded. The debut of the musical group took place on April 1 on the air of the Chance talent contest. Viewers didn't expect from before dance group the fact that the guys will also sing, so the song “I'm tired” caused a stir among the public. It was a cover version of the song "Long and lonesome road" from the repertoire famous group shock blue.

The performance of Quest Pistols was accompanied by breathtaking dances, which immediately determined the individual style of the team. Initially, the action was conceived as an original performance, but thanks to audience sympathy a one-time performance spawned a grandiose musical project. During the voting of viewers for the Quest Pistols group, 60 thousand people voted.

No less popular was the next hit "White Dragonfly of Love", the author of which was an aspiring musician. Other hits were written by the frontman of the group "My Rockets" Alexander Chemerov, known under the pseudonym Isolde Chatham.

At first, the band's repertoire included only 3-4 songs, which was not enough for full-fledged concerts. The way out was quite simple: first, Quest Pistols showed dance numbers for about half an hour, and then sang the songs they had in stock. The group gained popularity in Ukraine, Russia, countries of the Near Abroad, as well as in Europe. The musicians of the Ukrainian trio Quest Pistols performed at several international festivals, including in Belgium at a concert in support of a healthy lifestyle. In 2008, the group won the MTV Europe Music Awards in the nomination " Best Performer Ukraine".

But over time, the repertoire expanded, and in 2007 the debut saw the light studio album"For You", which was certified platinum. It was followed by the release of the disc " magic colors+ ROCK "N" ROLL and lace", and in 2009 the musicians released the album Superklass.

In addition to the songs included in the albums, the hits of the group “I am your drug”, “Revolution”, “You are so beautiful”, “Different”, “Coolest of all” were popular.

In addition, in 2013, under the pseudonym Zorko, Anton recorded a solo disc of the same name. Simultaneously with creativity, the artist began entrepreneurial activity and launched the Zorko clothing brand. The musician continued to perform with the group, but only until the beginning of 2016. Then unexpected news fell on Quest Pistols fans: one after another, the leading soloists left the band, and newcomers came in their place. In 2016, the updated line-up was recorded new album"Lubimka", which included the singles "Unlike", "I'll Kill".

In 2016, the team recorded videos for the hits "Summer" and "Opa Opa". And in 2017, the clips "Superhero" "Provoke" and "Run" were released.

Which hasn't released a debut album yet. All three projects stand out against the dull backdrop of Russian pop music with their fresh presentation - modern sound and trendy video clips. Chapter Kruzheva Music - Yuri Bardash, a former break dancer who is studying video production in Los Angeles and supervising staff working in Kyiv, Los Angeles and Moscow. Yuri Bardash usually does not give interviews, but forCOLTA. ENmade an exception and detailed his "producer code".

Yuri Bardash and Quest Pistols

- Group name Quest Pistols refers to Sex Pistols, and for some reason it is written about them on the Russian Radio website that “they took the baton from the legendary British group early 80s. Adam and the Ants”, which was also handled by Malcolm McLaren. I asked the guys from QP during the interview: they are not even aware that they took over the baton from Adam and the Ants or didn't want to talk. I would like to clarify: was there a “punk background” in Quest Pistols early in your career? What do you think show business lacked then?

There was no subtext. There was a dance group Quest. Its name is rooted in Small town Alchevsk, which is located in the Donbass region of Ukraine, where a kind aunt - the head of a youth club sheltered a group of dancers for free, the club was called "Search", as children's and youth clubs used to be called: such as "Timurovets", "Spartak" or "Birch". In honor of this club, the name of the break dance team was given - Quest.

Ballet in Kyiv Quest became so popular that autographs had to be handed out everywhere: on the street, in the subway and in all corners of the country, all this thanks to the hard work of the team and the country's rating TV show - "Chance". At one of the ballet rehearsals, the guys warmed up under the group shock blue, and I, already then being not a dancer, but a manager, went to a rehearsal and heard this song, I really liked it, in general I always liked music. In addition, there were circumstances that at the next photo session only three participants of the ballet got into the frame, and when I saw all this, the idea arose to turn the dance group into a show of a larger scale than a back-up dancer often for deranged hellish singers.

At that time, I was introduced to the Ukrainian underground music guru Sasha Chemerov, he was also the soloist of the rock group "Dymna Sumish", I asked him if he would like to participate in the creation musical project. So there was a "cover" for the song "Long and Lonesome Road" groups shock blue - "I'm tired", and the name of the group came up by itself, I knew that there was once a group that appeared out of nowhere and tore everyone with its faux ... zm, - these were Sex Pistols and I said to myself: why not, only we will have Quest Pistols. This is how it started new story adventure, or new Quest as you feel more comfortable.

Zhenya took the guitar and sang. I asked him why he sang such a meaningless song.

I don’t know what show business lacked then, and I don’t know now, I wouldn’t really want to delve into this movement. I'm glad it exists Russian market with any desire for something new, interesting. In general, for me it is like a platform for action. I don’t really want to think about the scope of my activity, since there are neither rules nor laws according to which any kind of creativity lives and flourishes, today one legislator, tomorrow another, therefore, for our creative movement there is only the concept “Let’s stir up such "...

The production idea was very simple - to live and feed on what you love and know how to do. There were no other ideas. You can, of course, say that there were some ideas, strategies, but let eminent producers talk about this, we are intuitively moving forward.

- New songs QP give out a change in the course of the group - as it seemed to me, less banter, less dancing, more lyrics. What is the reason for this - what is the new feature?

With growth and development creative personality a change of course is always an inevitable event, the main thing is that motives do not conflict with principles. Six years have passed since the first single of the group, which means that changes are taking place in the heads, even of the hottest ones.

Our team is first and foremost Quest Pistols, A ordinary people, like everyone else, people who go through the stage of growing up - something that you will no longer hear from your parents, but that you will have to know yourself, face to face with life; and therefore the lyrics are a consequence of certain events. Everything is very simple - you live, you learn, you grow, mistakes, lessons, conclusions, again mistakes, victories, defeats, love, dislike, family, woman, wife, weakness, struggle with yourself: everything that no one talks about now, but this does not mean that we do not experience it, and if at the age of 18 you want to jump and jump, you take it and jump, you jump beautifully, like no one else can, - this is called an artist, and then in the life of an artist, but first of all human, new ones are coming life stages in which he adapts to express himself in new forms for him: this is the search for himself.

Our new feature, like the previous, old ones, is personality, character, charisma. It doesn’t matter what a person’s suit, hairstyle, whether he has drawings on his body or not - these are all trifles, people will quickly pick up and make any trend unbearably boring. But if you are a character, you can never be forgotten, you will always be at the top of the chart, only another chart, not the one that program directors create, but the top that no one talks about - the top of self-sufficiency, confidence and calmness. When people feel this, they give the artist applause, which we, the artists, convert into money. Everything is like everyone else.

Yuri Bardash and Quest Pistols

- If the day after tomorrow Anton Savlepov and Nikita Goryuk declare that they are tired and want to leave QP, will you close the project or find a replacement for them, as Konstantin Meladze would have done?

Your comparison with Meladze is clear to me, since we also made a similar movement to the side " VIA Gra", taking into the group a person who has nothing to do with the spirit of the team. Time has shown that if there is no hand, you cannot sew someone else's hand, and the prosthesis will only remain a prosthesis.

Everything ends sometime, and the project Quest Pistols will end its existence, but this does not mean that the people who worked on it will fold their hands and sit back and remember the good things that happened to them. Next, we are preparing a step that no one expects, it will happen in September, so follow our movements and you will be entertainment.

- How many people work in Kruzheva Music? How does it work - as a company or as a creative community? Who in Kruzheva M usic makes decisions - is there some kind of artistic council, editorial board, or is it all the vision and will of one person (that is, yours)?

- Kruzheva Music is chaos. It sometimes seems to people from the outside that I am "Karabas-Barabas", but no one knows how things really are. I myself do not fully understand how this happens: when people are in a creative search, there are always a million options for what to do and where to go, there is never a clear course.

Regarding the hierarchy, everything is simple. Everyone understands that responsibility cannot be shared among everyone, otherwise there will be no one to ask, this is my answer to the question, for whom the last word. By the way, the company Kruzheva Music there are no contracts with artists, except for the rotation of music content, because it is necessary, but there are no papers inside the company. Everything is controlled by the word. We believe in the value of the spoken word, and this is our strength, no matter how naive it may sound.

People constantly come to the company, the criterion for selecting people is simple - to share the principles of the team, to be interesting to yourself, because when you yourself can find mutual language, which means that in everything else you are also cool! All the people who work with the Lace company are the Lace company, so it’s not so easy to count everyone. For example, you went to the site, spent your time to study the topic, made up questions on topics close to the company - it means that you are not one of the journalists who work for themselves, it means that you are already in our company. By the way, this is the first interview when I am pleased to answer, and this is the first time I answer. It’s not that I’m super arrogant, it’s just that you can immediately see the attitude with which questions are asked; it's like in America, for example, people ask when they meet: How are you?- while not looking into each other's eyes. Such people will never be in the company "Lace".

Nobody in the company talent searching, in the family, no one is looking for someone else to shelter.

I will not write about the device, come and see for yourself! We have two offices: in Moscow, business issues are resolved, and in Kyiv - a creative workshop, we do not accept a conveyor system for the production of a “product”. I am convinced that the pipeline will not work. The Lace company has been working with young people for eight years now, and you need to be honest with young people, otherwise there will be no applause, but no clap - and there will be no money, but everyone wants to be recognized, although they say that they don’t give a damn about it .

By the way, the formula was drawn by itself: money for an artist is recognition. Not only artists crave recognition, but all people on the planet, only there is more attention to the artist, so he turns, poor, between hell and heaven, and you don’t want to deceive yourself, and you also need to please the viewer. This is where the cornerstone of the company's philosophy lies. The most important thing is to always analyze what motive you have to do this or that, and only in this way can you avoid falling into the trap of social opinion.

- Who is involved in the company talent searching? How did you find the groups "Nerves" and "Iya"?

Nobody in the company talent searching, in the family, no one is looking for someone else to shelter. Here, for example, Milkovsky Zhenya: five years ago, this small, frail boy appeared at one of the parties that are an important part of our company, where he came from and who brought him - it doesn’t matter anymore. So, Zhenya took the guitar and sang. I asked him why he sang such a meaningless song. He said that this is a song from the Star Factory, in which he participated. Then I asked him what he really lives and what his soul sings about, and asked him to write a song about it. The next day there was a song "Station Mist".

"Nerves" - "Coffee is my friend"

In creativity you can not arrange searching, I believe in natural chemistry, and it was there, in a relaxed atmosphere of fun, that the boy heard and understood the most important thing - that you have to be yourself. Now this is no longer a boy at all, and both a girl who is 13 years old and a mature “commerce” who orders a group for himself for his 45th birthday get high from his songs: ask - why? Probably, everyone likes honesty, and you don’t need to look for it, it will find you on its own if your heart is open.

As for the "Iya" group, this is a new event in Kruzheva Music. You don't need to have a developed intuition to understand that their music will be a success. That's what I understood. This group is close to me, first of all, it is the friendship of my family (by the way, I became a father a year ago) and the families of Sergey and Katya, we have a similar vision of the world, the same goals and, of course, the creativity that connected us. My wife Kristina Bardash creates images, shoots videos for the band while our children play in the sandbox. By the way, my son's name is Zhora, and Katya and Serezha's daughter's name is Iya.

"Iya" - "Saw"

In fact, we would not really like to expand, this will never lead to victory, I am for pinpoint, targeted strikes. "Nerves", "Iya" and Quest Pistols- no more, and it's not about quantity. Sincerity is important, this is when everyone respects and loves each other, which is a rarity among artists, we succeed in this, and we follow this balance. The company has passed the times of the gold rush - “they say, come on, come on, more, more”, the lesson has been learned, values ​​and priorities have been determined.

How do you define the place that "Nerves" and "Iya" occupy now on the pop card - their niche, their unique selling proposition?

As for the place on the pop-map - time will tell. I personally like almost all Milkovsky's songs, except for the really snotty ones, I also like where "Iya" is moving, oh Quest Pistols I will not say - this is my heart, this is my everything.

- I found this ad on the Internet, posted on behalf of your company: “Our principles: work only with real artists, with real musicians, showmen, plus everything moral principles artist must match the ideas of the "Book of Eli", otherwise Kruzheva they don’t take it on, no matter how wonderful and talented the artist is.” What is a real artist? How do you define it? Have your principles changed?

I had experience of all kinds of movements for oil money, practice has shown that one should not deceive oneself. Mistakes exist for that, in order to draw conclusions and tune in to the right course.

A real artist is one who does not seek to shake hands with all the channel heads and journalists, a real artist is in fact a person who makes a show from the air, and from the show - the air that we all need so much. Once I read a book about Niccolo Paganini, it described his attitude to money, that a servant followed him and carried a chest of gold, the problem was that Paganini constantly forgot this chest, lost it, because a person lived by art! This is the real artist for me. Money is needed in order not to think about them, and not vice versa.

And this quality is present in all artists. Kruzheva Music. Even our Commercial Director, the person who decides issues in Moscow does not think about money. Not everyone will be able to understand this, and whoever can - the green light to a fear-free life.

In America, people in cars sing songs, and they don't care that someone is looking at them, people there are free from complexes, they dance in the streets, they sing.

- You live in Los Angeles - is the company going to Kruzheva Music work for the American market? To what extent is it now possible for a project from Russia or Ukraine to emerge that would achieve the same global recognition as Tatu?

As for America, everything here is the same as in our country, only a little different. It's not that people here are more talented, it's all about the market, which is legal in America, with its own laws, rules and a huge turnover of money, so huge that serious businessmen are not afraid to invest in shows as in a market, but in our country everyone his own hero. In America, people in cars sing songs, and they don’t care that someone is looking at them, people there are free from complexes, dance in the streets, sing, if they see an artist, they line up to get an autograph and pay tribute; in our country, when an artist appears in public, a menagerie begins. Our people are not to blame for this, it's just that everything is different with us. But you know what, I personally would like to work with Russian people, for me Russians are those who understand Russian, I understand Russian, and it’s easy for me to explain myself and convey my idea exactly the way I want it, and I know that it will be understood. For example, I want to make films, and in LA the most best school and there is much to learn, but I want to shoot about what I know, about what I have experienced, and most importantly - for those who can associate it with themselves. I was once told that it is possible to film international ideas; yes, maybe, but it’s more important for me not to create conjuncture, but to create on mother tongue, which my parents spoke and which I speak. But this is another topic - about the future of the company.

As for music, when Milkovsky and I, for example, discuss his new songs, for us the indicator is “goosebumps”. It’s hard for me to feel goosebumps from songs in English, even though I learned to understand it)) ...

Regarding Tatu: Vanya Shapovalov is my good friend, a mentor in some ways, one of the few people who impressed me with his approach to work, this is a real producer, and it doesn’t matter that everyone says that he was “blown away” or he's crazy, which means they've never spoken to this man. I was lucky enough to know him, and I'm glad for that.

QUEST PISTOLS is a popular Ukrainian band that has won the hearts of millions in Russia and throughout the post-Soviet space.

QUEST PISTOLS are outrageous, young and endlessly talented. This team does not require a vivid presentation - their work, their life, their views - this is the best presentation!

Quest Pistols Biography (Quest Pistols Group history) Ukrainian group

Quest Pistols is a Ukrainian pop group formed from dance ballet"Quest", whose participants were Anton Savlepov, Nikita Goryuk and Konstantin Borovsky. For the existence of the show-ballet "Quest" the team conquered the Ukrainian public with their original productions for pop stars.

April 1, 2007 is the birthday of the Quest Pistols. It was on this day that Anton, Nikita and Kostya decided to try their hand at the Ukrainian TV program Chance in a new role. A cover of the song "Long and lonesome road" by the group "Shocking Blue" blew up the TV air called "I'm tired." TV viewers gave 60,000 votes for their performance, making Quest Pistols famous.

The debut video "I'm tired" was released in June 2007, which immediately got into the rotation of some music TV channels. Quest Pistols presented their debut album "For You" in Ukraine at the end of November 2007. The disc became "gold" in terms of the number of sales, and received only positive reviews. In Russia, the disc was presented in May 2008.

The lyrics are written by Izolda Chetkha, with the exception of the song "White Dragonfly of Love" and "Forget Everything", the author of the first young musician Nikolai Voronov, and the second is one of the soloists Nikita Goryuk.

On February 10, 2011, it was reported that Anton Savlepov had decided to leave the group. But a week later, Anton's statement appeared in the press that he had changed his mind and decided to return back.

In August 2011, the group was replenished with a 4th member. It was Daniil Matseychuk, and in September Konstantin Borovsky left Quest Pistols, who is now working on the group's image, choreography and website. It can also be found on Quest performances Pistols.
