Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky. It was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century Greek astronomer Ptolemy and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations today. In the sky Cassiopeia sits with Andromeda on the South side. In Greek mythology it was considered to represent the vain queen Cassiopeia, who boasted about her unrivalled beauty.
This album is a mix between different sides of the concept of “Cassiopeia”. It’s about life, the universe, humans and the future. Cassiopeia includes musical approaches comparable to Prefuse 73, Robot Koch and Kryptic Minds. The record is predominantly Hip Hop, but features tracks with other artists that are not strictly part of this genre such as BekBekson, Verhovski and Fancy Mike. Pavel’s music is a trip into a fable and his medium is the music of different genres: Hip Hop, Dubstep, Glitch, Wonky and Downbeat, used to form pictures. His work is free spirited and there are hints of feelings, allusions, enigma and mystery. We won’t get into the inner workings of his music, how it finds its way into the hearts and souls of the audience, the important thing is that it serves its purpose. Tracks such as “LA” or “Andromeda” are very personal statements from Pavel, “Quant Magic” is composed using Overtone, Didgeridoo, Boomerang, Yedaki and other Australian instruments. “Sacred Chants Of Shiva” seizes the listener with a sensation of restlessness.
Pavel Dovgal’s “Cassiopeia”, the incision between intergalactic music and the human soul. The same formula that has been present for over a thousand years.

hhv.de mag - Review

Die Kaderschmiede in Russland läuft noch wie zu Zeiten des realexistierenden Sozialismus, jedenfalls was die Produzenten avancierter Beats betrifft. Das ist insofern erstaunlich, weil das ehemalige Zarenreich keineswegs auf eine in diese Richtung auch nur tendierende Musiktradition blicken kann. Doch das World Wide Web hat auch hier den Menschen neue Möglichkeiten eröffnet. So klingt die Musik von Pixelord, DZA und Co. zwar zeitgemäß, aber eben nicht von einheimischen Kolorit besetzt. Auch Pavel Dovgals Soundentwürfe sind eher an typisch untypischen HipHop-Produzenten wie Flying Lotus oder Prefuse 73 angelehnt. Dovgal unterscheidet sich dennoch von den meisten anderen russischen Beatschmieden, nicht nur, weil er den Großteil seines Lebens in der Ukraine verbracht hat. Er nähert sich HipHop eher von Seiten der elektronischen Musik, legt Wert auf gut gesetzte Kicks, abwechslungsreiche, stimmungsvolle Sounds. Er kann aber auch die Kanten schräg setzen, um wie einer dieser wilden Dubstep-Erneuerer zu klingen. Wer sein Spektrum antesten möchte, höre doch Salzburg und das darauffolgende LA. Erstaunlich, dass diese halbstündige Ideenvielfalt dennoch ein kohärentes Klangbild ergibt.
