REVIEWS

"The Left Side Of Life is a superb and authentic,live recording.The titletrack shows a strong contribution to the album and the compositions of Kostadinovic are all of high originality".
"JAZZTIMES"

Vladimir Kostadinovic's new record is a nice showcase for the drummer's well honed-chops and the accomplished players in his ensemble. "The Left Side Of Life" remains an overall strong effort,and Kostadinovic drops on the radar as player to watch.
"MODERN DRUMMER MAGAZINE"

"Kostadinovic comes off as an imaginative drummer filling in space, stimulating the frontline and urging it on. His imagination raises the quotient, as he sets up different stylistic paths to the signpost of resolution".

"ALL ABOUT JAZZ"

"Vladimir Kostadinovic is a very accomplished and musical player. Watching him perform I’ve been able to witness his maturity as a player and as a person on and off the bandstand".

ANTONIO SANCHEZ

His fluent language which is both steeped in traditions and yet inventively modern is further evidenced by his mastery.Personally knowing his history and becoming friends. I can say that he has built an already bright career and future that is only limited by the stars!! God Bless
