Stelsi

Stelsi is a Ukrainian electro-folk/synthpop/electronic dance music group, founded in 1999 by Alex Kukharsky in Chernivtsy, Bukovina. The band has been credited as one of the first electronic music acts in Ukraine, with a fusion of styles that quickly grew into mainstream popularity at the beginning of the 2000s.[1] During its more-than-decade history, the band's sound developed from big-beat, techno, house & other club-oriented genres (2000-2003) up to more live performance synthpop\alternative\rock music (2003-2005), finally incorporating ethnic\folk elements which resulted in a style fusion that was called "electro-folk" by critics and press (2005–present).[2] The band's music can be frequently heard in commercials, radio & TV shows, presentations, sport events and other media throughout Ukraine.[3]
