The very first (and still remains the best) electro-pop Ukrainian group Ivan Samshit has recorded 12 (or even more) albums in period from 1987 to 1997, but very few of them was released on cassettes in Ukraine and Germany in 90th.

“Essential Shit” is a compilation of the best tracks from these neglected recordings, that are available on CD for the first time ever!

19 tracks have been re-recorded directly from original pre-historyc master-cassettes and reel-tapes and carefully re-mastered using both modern digital and vintage analogue restoration equipment. In result, the sound of this CD is very similar to the tape sources — warm, deep, hissing and a bit raw in it's primal beauty. There are a lot of the well-known real “pop-hits” presented on CD and some more experimetal tracks as well.

Limited edition (500 copies).
