Svilen Noev
Svilen Noev (Свилен Ноев) (born September 22, 1975) is a Bulgarian singer-songwriter, best known for being the bandleader of Ostava. His eclectic, deeply personal work shows the influence of various types of rock'n'roll music - the British indie rock scene, the Seattle grunge scene, the American rockabilly of the 50s, to name a few. Noev cites Elvis Presley, Nirvana, R.E.M., Radiohead, The Smiths as key influences on his style.

Noev joined Ostava in 1995 and since has become a key part of the band's sound. He switched places with then-lead singer Georgi Georgiev and the group began playing songs written and sung chiefly by Noev. However, Georgiev is given lead vocals on several songs.

Noev's lyrics are dominated by themes of love, sex, loneliness and social alienation. A Bulgarian music magazine once labeled him an existentialist, which Noev found quite flattering.

A common practice of his is to write the lyrics to his songs in both Bulgarian and English. The studio versions of the songs are, naturally, in Bulgarian. However, when performing live, Noev often sings in English. This was particularly important when the band performed in front of an international audience during their German tours in 2005 and 2006.

Another signature characteristic of Svilen Noev is his falsetto singing, which distantly resembles that of Suede's Brett Anderson, and Placebo's Brian Molko. Irritated by such comparisons, Noev was cited saying "I can't sing in 10 different ways [...] I'm confident in what I do. No one is ever going to say "You resemble so and so" to a poor singer."

Vilislav
Vilislav Asenov Andreev (Bulgarian: Вилислав Асенов Андреев, born January 4, 1992 in Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria), best known as Vilislav, is a Bulgarian pop-folk and pop singer.

Biography

Vilislav was born on January 4, 1992 in Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria. As his parents divorced when he was 5 years old, he was raised by his grandparents while his mother worked abroad. His devotion to music became evident in his early childhood. He admired singers like Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, Vasil Naydenov etc.

Vilislav’s talent was discovered when he was in the second grade of primary school. His music teacher encouraged him to start taking vocal lessons. His first vocal teacher was the famous opera singer Maria Kassabova, but later on he decided that classical singing is not the genre for him. He started taking pop-singing vocal lessons led by Venelina Panevska. By gradually improving his vocal skills, he began winning many awards at festivals and competitions for young talents both in Bulgaria and abroad (Armenia, Italy, Spain, Russia, Romania, etc.).

Vilislav graduated from "Vasil Drumev" Mathematics and Natural Sciences High School in his hometown. In 2011, he was accepted in the Pancho Vladigerov National Academy of Music in Sofia to study Pop and Jazz Vocal performance. While still a student, Vilislav concentrated mainly on pop music. In 2015 Vilislav released his first single “Znaesh kak”. Since March 2016, he is part of Hit Mix Music - the music company of the Balkan music composer Jordancho Vasilkovski - Otsko.

Music career

2015: Pop Debut File:Znaesh kak.jpg|thumb|left|Znaesh kak|alt=Znaesh kak.jpg While still a student at the Pancho Vladigerov National Academy of Music, Vilislav concentrated mainly on performing pop songs. He became well-connected in the music spheres and also took part in the musicals Fame and Footloose. He even performed live with his band throughout some of the most popular nightclubs in the capital Sofia. A milestone for the development of his musical career was his big success at the “Eurotalent” International Contest for Young Singers held in Napoli, Italy in January 2015. He ranked first among all contestants, grabbing the grand prix award in the competition. After he returned to Bulgaria, the media started talking about him more and more, proving that his talent has finally been noticed.

Vilislav received a project proposal from the Austro-Bulgarian producing team Symphonix, who have previously worked with artists like Poli Genova, Desi Slava, Kostas Martakis, Orlin Pavlov etc. A few months later, on April 23, 2015, Vilislav released his first single “Znaesh kak” ("Знаеш как"). He was invited to represent Bulgaria with that song on the International Song Contest “Universal Song” in Tenerife, Spain in July 2015. There he won the Best Voice award and the song was listed in a few Spanish charts for European music. In the BG Radio Annual Awards for 2015, Vilislav was nominated in the following categories: Debut, Best Lyrics, Best male artist, Best Video and Best Song.

On October 11, 2015 Vilislav released his second pop single – “Ostani” ("Остани"). The music was once again by Symphonix, the lyrics were written by Bulgarian hip-hop singer Bobo. That project was more successful than the first one. It was aired on all Bulgarian music TV channels and radio stations, including the pop-folk ones.

2016: Contract with Hit Mix Music

File:Vilislav - obyasnitelen rezhim video.jpg|thumb|right|Obyasnitelen rezhim|alt=Vilislav - obyasnitelen rezhim video.jpg Despite the success of his second pop single „Ostani”, Vilislav decided to keep on experimenting with his musical style. “I don’t want to put myself in a frame and to limit the music that I make”, he explains. This was the main reason for him to contact Balkan music hitmaker Jordancho Vasilkovski - Otsko. In December 2015, they started working on Vilislav’s first pop-folk song – “Obyasnitelen rezhim” („Обяснителен режим“). Otsko produced the music, while Marieta Angelova wrote the lyrics.

When he met Vilislav, Otsko had already started gathering a team that would establish a new music label in Bulgaria, focussed on producing young singers. While they worked on “Obyasnitelen rezhim”, Otsko noticed Vilislav’s big potential and decided to offer him a contract. Vilislav signed with Hit Mix Music and thus became one of its first artists. On March 18, 2016, he released his first pop-folk project.

In July 2016, Vilislav released his fourth single, named "Ostava skrito". The music was produced by Otsko and the lyrics was written by Yordan Botev. Director of the video is Bashmotion.

His next single is called "Zabravih te" and was released in January 2017. The music was produced by Otsko again, and the lyrics was written by Vilislav together with Petya Radeva.
