Tantsi
Tantsi (, ) is an album by the band Vopli Vidopliassova. It was originally released on 29 March 1989 on Fonograf, the house record label of the newspaper Molodaya Gvardia. Thirteen of the fourteen tracks were recorded in one night at the Institute of Metallurgy in the Akademmistechko neighborhood of Kyiv; "Mahatma" was recorded live at a show at the Institute of Foreign Languages. Re-release in the West 
The album was featured in the book 100 magnitoalbomov sovetskogo roka. In 2023, a book about the Tantsi recording and the late Soviet Kyiv Underground, written by Maria Sonevytsky, was published in Bloomsbury's 33 1/3 Europe series. The book discusses the context of the Kyiv Underground; the ingenious circular economy devised to release the cassette album in the first place; the role of satire and humor in the band's songs; the relationship of the band to the Komsomol (Communist Youth League); and the enduring meaning of the song "Tantsi" in the aftermath of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. A remastered version of the original Tantsi session was released on vinyl on Org Music for Record Store Day 2023. The vinyl release was named "new and notable" in Paste Magazine.
