Biography
Andrei Lyskov (real name of Zvonky) was born in Moscow on March 19, 1977 [7] .
He was fond of music since childhood, while he was interested in a wide variety of musical styles and directions [7] . As a result, having already tried to play different instruments [7] , in 1996 he entered the music school in the class of percussion [7] [8] .
He began his career in music as a drummer in a jazz ensemble [7] (according to the announcement of the concert of one of Zvonky’s concerts, he played drums in a jazz college) [9] .
In 1993 [9] with rapper Max (also known as Bus) founded the group “Rhythm-U”. The group gave Zvonky an invaluable experience, because he took his first steps on the big stage with her and worked on his first album in his life [7] .
A few years later [9] there was a musical project “The Tree of Life”, co-authored by Andrei together with Muk and Delovy and playing a mixture of reggae hip-hop and jazz [7] .
Many tracks of the “Tree of Life” became popular with the audience of informal youth festivals. The voiced himself read “stew”, Delovoy read “conversations”, and Mook was responsible for the emotional saturation of the reading. Together they recorded the song "First-Last".

Then he began a solo career. Zvonky’s first solo album was entitled “I Like It” [9] and was released in 2013 on the Monolith label [8] .
I graduated from percussion music school. In 1996 he entered the same direction in a music school. He studied and simultaneously played hip-hop in the team "Tree of Life". The team was created with familiar guys. Participated in various rap festivals, went to concerts, gathered venues. We started recording in the studio. I first tried myself as a sound engineer, arranger and composer.
In 2001, the team crumbled. I went to music production. I was invited to work as an arranger in one studio on the Arbat, where our pop stars recorded. In parallel, I did solo tracks.
In 2005, he moved to another studio. I liked the studio work. It was interesting. Plus, I was looking for opportunities for my own material. He wanted to become an independent artist, learned to mix, make arrangements.
In 2007 there was an attempt to reassemble the “Tree of Life”. We recorded several tracks, lit up on different popular hip-hop venues. But working together failed. The human factor and life circumstances interfered. After that, I decided that I would develop solo. Then he was involved in the Burito project as a music producer.
And in 2013, he released his first album under the pseudonym Zvonky along with the production company Monolit. Now I work with Velvet Music. In autumn we release the second solo album.

In 2014, he took part in the TV show “ Voice ” on the Russian First Channel . Having successfully completed blind auditions, he ended up in the Pelagia team, but his path to the show ended at the stage of “fights” [7] .
Since 2016 or 2017, he is an artist of the Velvet Music label [8] .
In 2018, he broke through with the album “World of My Illusions” and the first single from him - “Voices”, which hit the tops of the music charts [6] This album was recorded for a very long time. Among the musicians who took part in his recording as guests were Yolka , Rem Digga , Pencil [10] .
In early December, a video was released for the song “Voices” [10] .
In the video “Voices”, with the help of original visual effects, the Voiced One seems to show how distorted and alien he now sees the environment in which he previously felt his own. It’s not the artist who seems to have fallen out of reality, but the young people who are locked in their burning world. Everything is engulfed in flames, literally - and it even fascinates. But the Voiced One still finds his soul mate and, probably, saves it.

Criticism Reviews
According to the "Music of the First", Voiced is considered "one of the best Russian performers of the ragamuffin style" [7] .
According to Russian Radio , Zvonky is “the best Russian ragga-performer who managed to create his own original musical style, taking raggamuffin as a basis in the symbiosis of modern dance sound and vocals” [11] .
TheQuestion writes:
Sound producer of the BURITO group; Andrei Zvonky was the founder and participant of the first hip-hop movements in Russia in the early 90s, and his group “Tree of Life” became a true subcultural legend. His music can not be attributed to any particular direction and at the moment the material is focused on a high-quality European format, which combines elements of electronic music, hip-hop, reggae. Due to the style and creative solutions, Voiced is considered one of the most fashionable and advanced contemporary musicians.
