Stelsi is a Ukrainian electro-folk/synthpop/electronic dance music group, founded in 1999 by Alex Kukharsky in Chernivtsy, Bukovina. The band have been credited as one of the first electronic music acts in Ukraine,with fusion of styles that quickly grew into mainstream popularity at the beginning of the 2000s. During its more-than-decade history, band`s sound developed rapidly from big-beat, techno, house & other club-oriented genres (2000-2003) up to more live performance synthpop\alternative\rock music (2003-2005), finally incorporating ethnic\folk elements which resulted in a unique style fusion that was called "electro-folk" by critics and press (2005–present). The band`s music can be frequently heard in commercials, radio & TV shows, presentations, sport events and other popular media throughout Ukraine.
