Andrey Aleksin is a musician, sound engineer, producer, songwriter. On the Russian stage, he is known from two sides: the author of hooligan, courtyard songs and the creator of beautiful, lyrical compositions sung by F. Kirkorov, M. Rasputin, I. Allegrova and many others.
Biography
Andrey Vladimirovich Aleksin was born on July 6, 1968 in Aleksin, Tula Region. He officially changed his last name from Onishchenko to Aleksin. This is explained by the fact that there was often confusion when presenting a passport at airports and other institutions. It took a lot of time and nerves to find out the identity. He decided to become "Aleksin" forever.
Mom says that from childhood it was clear that a musician was born to her. Andrei jokes that he began to write in kindergarten. The guitar was his favorite toy. They bought him a piano, grandmother gave him a button accordion, grandfather gave him an accordion. They brought different guitars from all the trips. Since then he has been collecting them. There's even a 1945 guitar.
He received his musical education at the Tula School of Arts, specializing in the head of the orchestra of folk instruments. At the school, he learned to play almost all folk instruments, but nowhere was he taught the electric guitar. At that time, he was similar to many famous people - musicians who were obliged to receive a musical education. They played electric guitars together and studied each other.
Then he happened to work as a music worker in kindergarten and school. He recalls, laughing, that it was the funniest work activity in his biography.
Concert career began in his hometown. Andrey sang a lot in restaurants and discos, performed with the White Guard group. During this period, he gained experience: he honed the skills of an electric guitarist, learned musical arrangement.
Moscow calls and beckons …
In the capital, acquaintance with the group "Hands up!", Roman Trakhtenberg, Philip Kirkorov, Viktor Baturin and "Ural dumplings" helped him to become famous in musical circles.
He hooked Baturin with the song-address "Letter to Baturin". In the song, he half-seriously, half-jokingly asked the famous producer to give money for the album to the guys from the Dentist and Fisun group.
During that period, many hooligan songs were written with original titles: "Terrible", "Beautiful", "Predator", "Drunk" … Critics and people ambiguously accepted his non-formatted work, but he was ready for such a reception. He did not impose anything on anyone, did not prove it, and waited for his time to come. And it came, at the present time Andrei does not have time to write for himself, but pleases other singers by performing orders for songs. The discography of the author is currently small. From 2001 to 2010, he collected five albums:
The song "Scary"
This song has caused and raises many questions from everyone. And, in order not to answer the question of whom this song is about, Andrey came up with a joke story. At one time he had a bad diction. He was asked about the title of the song. He answered "Passionate", but it came out like "Terrible". This song has worldwide fame. Friends say that they heard it in the United Arab Emirates and in India.
Andrei has an image of an informal author, but there is also another side of Aleksin - a lyricist. His fans are divided into two halves: lovers of hooligan and humorous songs and admirers of beautiful lyrical compositions. One of such beautiful songs was noticed by Philip Kirkorov and is very pleased with this work of Andrey Aleksin.
The song "Give me just one look …"
Initially, the song was written for Alexander Aivazov and performed several times by him. It was called "Nastya, give me …". But when she got to F. Kirkorov, she became much richer in performance. In his performance, it is dedicated to all women, and the name "Nastya" disappeared from the text. A. Aleksin jokes on this topic that Kirkorov made this song wide, because his "mouthpiece is wider."
Song "Let love rule the world …"
The composition was created for the film by R. Trachtenberg based on the book "The Way of the Male". She was supposed to complete the final scene in Roman's film. But now it turned out that this song still carries the final function, but in F. Kirkorov's concerts. And Andrey often ends evenings, banquets and holidays with it.
In general, A. Aleksin has two such significant songs in his life: "Terrible", which gave him the image of a bully and informal, and "Give me just one look …". The latter is so popularized by Kirkorov that even Thais sing it in small restaurants in Thailand. Andrey calls this song "the nurse", as she brings him a good income in the form of royalties.
Personal happiness
Andrey met his beloved in his hometown when he sang in the group "White Guard". Olga appeared in the group dancer at the invitation of her brother Andrey. She danced side by side for several years, and now for many years Andrei has been "a New Year tree on a pedestal", and he admires her not once a year, but every day. He likes that his wife is changing all the time. She does not stand still, it is always interesting to talk to her. She reads a lot and enjoys psychology. She is home, not a party girl.
According to Olga, Andrei is not just a nice and talented guy. She has been observing his work for 15 years and is proud that Andrei has turned into a great good artist. She likes that he writes extraordinary songs.
Both love summer, sea, sun and beach.
Son - Maxim Onishchenko. Loves computers, draws. It doesn't work with a guitar, but the boy is good at composing rap. Dad helps him to evaluate the lyrics through familiar rappers and assures that many are already ready to record an album with teenage rap. And it will undoubtedly be popular with young people.
Charity
For Andrey, happiness lies in goodness. And good for him is when everyone is healthy and when nothing bad happens. He loves to help people, so he almost never refuses charity events. He is glad that his work can be useful. In July 2013, many artists sang for the residents of Efremov, who suffered from a devastating tornado.
Life principles
Andrey is often asked about how he manages to stay stable in life and somehow walk so smoothly along the path of fame. He replies that he has several beliefs somewhere inside him that help him go through life. Here they are:
Optimism and daily attitude towards a good mood
Gratitude to every new day
Recharging with energy from nature
Entertains himself
Never bites off more than it can swallow
Finds a middle ground between complete prosperity and glory
I was born with music, I will go with it
Sociable, sociable, kind, cheerful. These words are said about him by all friends, acquaintances, relatives and friends. His jubilee hall was packed with people. He laughs that he had to splurge a little to invite everyone he wanted. They redeemed him in sincere and pleasant words, wished him as much good as is enough for more than one life. He assured everyone that he would create to the last and would not deviate from the musical path. Now the lyricist sings more in it, but with an eternal laugh in his eyes.
