    Sasha Mashin - Happy Run
    Sasha Mashin's new and first Italian album, titled "Happy Run," features two extraordinary artists, saxophonist Rosario Giuliani and double bassist Makar Novikov.
     
    Mashin, a Russian drummer, chose Italy and Rome as his place of residence for the past two years after the outbreak of the conflict involving his country. Sasha Mashin lived in Moscow, where he played a leading role in the city's cultural and musical scene. Two activities in particular occupied much of his time: "Sasha Mashin Happy Lab," which took place once a week at Moscow's main jazz club, and 'Sasha Mashin Happy Run,' where friends would meet to run 10 kilometers and chat once a week. The idea behind the musical workshop was to break down the barrier between the audience and the stage, promoting informal communication, concerts, and the exchange of ideas. In a short time, the lab became a regular event for listening to great music and a meeting place for creatives who shared ideas and started new projects. Similarly, the amateur sports event became popular, with many of the same participants as the "Happy Lab." The rules were simple: as long as you run, you can learn anything you want, not only from the event's creator, Mashin himself, but also from all the musicians or people involved in the 10-kilometer run, who came from various professional backgrounds. The outbreak of the war profoundly changed the dynamics, not only on an international scale but also, and above all, in the lives of individuals. Sasha Mashin continued to "run," not only metaphorically. Arriving in Italy as a political refugee, he found new friends, exceptional musicians who welcomed him both as a person and as an artist. Today, the Russian drummer feels he can call Rome his "home" and his new and old friends "his family."

    “I feel like I've finally finished my race," explains Sasha Mashin in the liner notes of his album, "for the first time in a long time I feel truly happy. While once the idea of emigrating filled me with existential terror, it doesn't even feel like I've left home. Italians are so open, friendly, and supportive that it feels like I've completed a marathon and reached the finish line. I'm home.” The songs on the "Happy Run" album are composed by Sasha Mashin himself. "Country of Obscurantism" suggests that it doesn't necessarily have to be beautiful, which helps the artist share it with a lighter heart. "I promise I will continue my attempts and maybe one day I will write something more beautiful with a more joyful background." The album includes Makar Novikov's beautiful composition "Yellow Blues," Rosario Giuliani's magnificent three-part "Suite et Poursuite," Jimmy Van Heusen's ballad "Darn That Dream," and even a track from "The Rite of Spring" by the artist's most beloved composer, Igor Stravinsky ("Introduction, Les Augures printaniers"), paired with Victor Lewis's composition "Hey, It's Me You Are Talkin' To" (music the artist is convinced was inspired by Stravinsky himself). "One of the most beautiful experiences related to running," says Sasha, "is the ability to think and plan while running. In these moments, the brain's chemistry changes significantly, producing more serotonin and dopamine, and you can think more clearly and precisely. By running regularly, I understood one important thing: you cannot run away from yourself. But you can run away from the darkness, both within and outside of us. Running is an intelligent sport. Run happy!”

    "Happy Run" is an album that is not just about music but also tells a story. It is a metaphorical "run" that allowed the artist to move away from the darkness of a difficult past and brought him to Italy for a new life, in his new home!

    Good fun and entertaining!
    Color: Orange
    A really fun interactive toy for your dog! It's pretty erratic and really gets him chasing it. The included soft cover was kinda hard to install and then it's hard to turn it off and on with the cover on, I feel like the cover didn't really improve it at all, sure it's louder without the cover but I feel like dog also likes it that way, he likes loud squeaky toys and this thing making a bunch of noise is appealing to him. We have mostly hardwood floors so it really gets moving, I'm sure on carpet it would be a bit quieter and maybe even a bit slower to move around but on hard smooth surfaces this things can really get zipping around abd get some speed to make him chase it. Overall a fun and entertaining toy.

    Not the Fetch-Fest I Hoped For
    Color: Orange
    I had high hopes for the PetDroid Interactive Dog Ball, especially with the newly upgraded features and promises of durable, motion-activated fun. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to expectations for my furry friend. Here’s why I’m giving it 2 stars. Promising Features, Lackluster Results The idea behind this toy is fantastic: a durable, motion-activated ball that would entertain my dog without much effort on my part. The ball is supposed to roll around on its own, keeping my dog engaged and active. However, in practice, it just didn’t capture my dog’s interest. Durability I will give credit where it’s due: the ball is well-made and seems durable. It can withstand some rough handling, which is great for more aggressive chewers. Unfortunately, durability doesn’t mean much if your dog won’t play with it in the first place. Motion Activation The motion activation feature is hit or miss. While the ball does move around as advertised, it didn’t seem to move in a way that intrigued my dog. He gave it a sniff, watched it for a minute, and then walked away, unimpressed. I tried multiple times to get him interested, but he simply wasn’t having it. Lack of Engagement The biggest issue is that the ball just didn’t engage my dog at all. It might be more suitable for a different personality type or breed, but for my pooch, it was a total flop. He’s usually quite playful and curious, so I was surprised by his lack of interest. Final Thoughts Overall, the PetDroid Interactive Dog Ball might work for some dogs, but it was a miss for mine. If your dog is easily entertained by automated toys, it might be worth a try. However, based on my experience, I can’t wholeheartedly recommend it. Pros: Durable construction Motion-activated as advertised Cons: Did not engage my dog Motion activation wasn’t intriguing enough Might be more suitable for specific dog types or personalities If you decide to give it a shot, just be prepared for the possibility that your dog might not find it as entertaining as you hope. For us, it’s back to the drawing board for a more engaging toy.

    Pup Loves It, Some Other Notes
    Color: Orange
    We've had this for about six months and my 75 lb, 14-month-old German Shepherd pup LOVES IT. Her favorite is "Crazy Bouncing Mode." In fact, she doesn't care much for the normal mode. She chews it a lot - even drops it in her water bowl at times - and it's still going strong. This is a great purchase. It's nice hands-off entertainment. Do know that it is heavy compared to a normal ball - if your pup likes dropping it on the ground like mine does, it will land with a hard "thud," even with the included sleeve. Hopefully you don't have downstairs neighbors. Also know that the cover that goes over the charging port is removable and your dog may choke on it if they chew it in just the right manner. Definitely only let the pup play with it while supervised. All in all, great toy.

    Yes!
    Size: Medium
    Durable. Squeak doesn't last forever with my aggressive chewers but crinkle does. Best balls.
