RAGAPOP Biography
Ragapop is a side project of Ruslana Khazipova and Anna Nikitina from Dakh Daughters, in collaboration with Anton Ocheretyanyy. The band's concept was born from their shared passion for combining performing arts and music, embracing elements of post-punk aesthetics and incorporating aspects of lo-fi electronics.
Their debut EP, "Siasya," serves as a tribute to the renowned 19th-century Ukrainian poet Ivan Franko. It draws inspiration from his lesser-known lyrics and the brilliant translation of Sophocles' "Oedipus the King." The EP was recorded at the Dovzhenko Film Studios, incorporating vintage Soviet cinematic equipment such as reverberation plates and chambers. This approach aimed to utilize the studio itself as an instrument within the recording.
The band draws vital energy from the mysticism and eroticism inherent in Ukrainian culture, capturing these distinct elements regardless of the language employed in a particular song. Ragapop's recordings emanate a solid and fresh sound, attracting fans seeking a cinematic experience and raw energy during their live performances. Their initial EP received critical acclaim in Ukraine and garnered multiple nominations as one of the year's best releases. Their single 'Gordosti' was featured on KEXP Radio's Wo' Pop show by Darek Mazzone, serving as a representation of the emerging Ukrainian music scene.
Currently, Ragapop is gaining attention in Europe. Based in France, the band is actively working on their first LP, slated for release in spring 2024. They are performing at various festivals and clubs across Europe, while also receiving recognition from European media outlets such as TV5 Monde and Deutsche Welle.
