Krovostok (Blood Flow) is a gangster-styled Russian rap band playing music of guns, foul language, blood money etc. Intelligent (though drinking) people performed in the small St.-Petersburg clubs. In 2004, Krovostok spread 8 tracks on their web-site. Later theses tracks were included in their debut album “Blood River” (Reka Krovi). The band immediately became a favorite of the Moscow bohemian audience, admiring tough scathing lyrics. Krovostok sing about blackmailers and murders from the poky holes of the city, about this damned world where people have conditioners at the office, DVD – at home, where everyone reads “Da Vinchi Code” and drinks cheap vodka. In 2006, they released “Through” (Skvoznoiye), gradually becoming as much popular and adored as Leningrad.

Now in their 23rd year since their initial 1983 release, Steve Smith and Vital Information has become a formidable jazz/fusion juggernaut whose longevity surpasses all of the major fusion groups. The all-star lineup of Tom Coster (keyboards), Baron Browne (bass), Vinny Valentino (guitar) and Steve Smith (drums) serve up a veritable banquet of sounds, from slamming funk and syncopated second line grooves to seriously swinging, uptempo B-3 burners, South Indian Carnatic inspired jams and sizzling fuzoid romps. In Baget Vital Information presents their new twelfth album ‘Vitalization’, featuring longtime band members Steve Smith on drums, Tom Coster on keyboards, bassist Baron Browne and introduces Vinny Valentino as the band’s new guitarist.
