In different forms and under different names, the group exists approximately since 1978, however, its current name, Auktyon received only in May of 1983, when it was granted a membership in the Leningrad Rock Club, and its present appearance, style, and core musicians were formed in spring of 1986, when the group was triumphant on the stage of the 4th Leningrad Rock Club Festival in the following line up: Leonid Fedorov (guitar, vocal), Oleg Garkusha (dance, vocal), Sergei Rogozhin (vocal), Victor Bondarik (bass), Dmitriy Ozerskiy (keyboards, vocal), Nikolai Rubanov (saxophone, flutes), Nikolai Fedorovich (saxophone), and Igor Cheridnik (drums). In one year, Auktyon was repeatedly successful in the 5th festival, after which Sergei Rogozhin left the group for the pop-band FORUM, while the percussionist Pavel Litvinov strengthened the rhythm section. The second guitarist - Dmitriy Matkovksiy from the cult band of the early 80's MANUFAKTURA - joined Auktyon that fall. During that period, the group attained acknowledgement on the scale of the whole country, performing at the rock-festivals in Kiev, Ekaterinburg, Vilnyus ("Lituanika-8"), and taking part in the cultural program of Moscow International Film Festival.
In 1988 Auktyon recorded an album "Return to Sorrento", which has not been professionally released until now; Igor Cherednik, who left for IGRY, was replaced by a hard-rock drummer Boris Shaveinikov; and the visual image of the group had acquired a new quality, when a gifted dancer Vladimir Veselkin joined the group. A significant role in formation of the image of Auktyon during this period was played by a famous avant-garde artist from St. Petersburg Kirill Miller, who was responsible for the covers of the first albums: in particular "How I Became a Traitor" (1989), released in France by Voyla Productions, and "All Quiet in Baghdad" (1990), recorded in Russia at "Melodiya".
In 1990 Auktyon took part in grandiose ecological action "Rock of Clear Water", and along with other participants went down the river Volga, giving concerts in Volga cities.
From the late 80's Auktyon began to regularly travel to Europe: in the last ten years they have had several hundred concerts in France, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, and Czech Republic. In the 90's new work continues to appear: "Asshole" (Erio, 1990), "Hangover" (SNC, 1991), "Bird" (Dyadyushka Records, 1994), "Best Of" (SNC, 1996). Furthermore, Auktyon discography also contains two collaborations with the Parisian artist, poet, and bard Aleksey Khvostenko: "Teapot of Wine" (1992) and "Mountaintop Dweller" (SNC, 1995 - based on the verses of the poet and language reformer Velemir Khlebnikov).
After the period of relative stability, in May of 1992, Vladimir Veselkin left Auktyon, who began a relatively successful solo career (in 1991 his album "Impossible Love" was released by FeeLee), and in November of 1995, Dmitriy Matkovskiy has played his last concert with the group. Almost at the same time Auktyon has invited a tuba player Mikhail Kolovskiy. The main creative force of the group - guitarist and singer Leonid Fedorov. His songs (which are usually written to the lyrics of the colleagues - Dmitriy Ozerskiy and Oleg Garkusha) have a characteristic melodic language, in which jazz and ethnic intonations neighbor with a straightforward "hit"-like key phrases, and where the rhythm allows you to stretch the most "unfit for the voice" phases.
In 2007 an Auktyon's album "Devushki Poyut" (released in English language countries as "Girls Sing") of was released. It was recorded just in a few days in USA with participation of Marc Ribot (worked with John Zorn, Marianne Faithfull, Tom Waits and more) on guitar, John Medeski on keyboards, Frank London on trumpet, Ned Rothenberg on sax, Vladimir Volkov (Владимир Волков) on contrabass.
For the extent of its biography, the group appeared in various films and documentaries: "Burglar" (Lenfilm, 1986), "Half-Official"(Germany, 1987), "Rock" (LSDF, 1987), "Let's rock-n-roll!"(Germany, 1988). The main movie star of Auktyon is Oleg Garkusha, who played in "Presumption of Innocence" (1998), and "Khrustalev! Get the car!" (1996). He regularly appears and reads his poetry and is an author of two collections of poems.
The many-sided and experienced musicians, the members of Auktyon regularly participate in recordings and multiple projects - Rubanov and Litvinov together and separately played in JUNGLE, ADDIS-ABEBA, MARKSCHEIDER KUNST; Rubanov played in BEES AND THE HELICOPTER, TIME TO LOVE, and METAMORPHOSIS; Kolovskiy and Rubanov play in Z-ENSEMBLE and UNION OF COMMERCIAL AVANTGARDE; Fedorov played and recorded with Nizhniy-Novgorod bard Aleksey "Colonel" Khrynov; Shaveinikov played with Yuri Naumov, TIME TO LOVE, and METAMORPHOSIS; Matkovskiy recorded a series of albums of his minimalist experiments called "Hunting of …"
Моя любовь
Аукцыон Lyrics
Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴
Болотный лебедь с нежным телом
Меня морочит злая кровь
Моя весна вернется вновь
Туда, куда ты так хотела
Ее коней седые гривы
Укроют травы и обрывы
На белых снах от бедных слов
Туда, куда ты так просила
Моя любовь, моя любовь
Моя любовь, моя
А в небе лес с огнем играет
Он долго жил, он много знает
И плачут стаи гончих псов
Среди ветвей и полюсов
Меня почти что догоняет
Моя любовь, моя любовь
Моя любовь, моя
На мне луна рисует белым
The moon paints me white
Болотный лебедь с нежным телом
A marsh swan with a delicate body
Меня морочит злая кровь
Evil blood confuses me
Моя весна вернется вновь
My spring will return again
Туда, куда ты так хотела
There, where you wanted so much
Ее коней седые гривы
Her horses' gray manes
Укроют травы и обрывы
Will cover the grass and cliffs
И унесет под бой часов
And will take away under the sound of clocks
На белых снах от бедных слов
On white dreams from poor words
Туда, куда ты так просила
There, where you begged so much
Моя любовь, моя любовь
My love, my love
Моя любовь, моя
My love, mine
А в небе лес с огнем играет
And the forest is playing with fire in the sky
Он долго жил, он много знает
It lived long, it knows a lot
И плачут стаи гончих псов
And packs of hounds cry
Среди ветвей и полюсов
Among the branches and poles
Меня почти что догоняет
It almost catches up to me
Моя любовь, моя любовь
My love, my love
Моя любовь, моя
My love, mine

Шесть лет назад ехал с семьёй в отпуск. В дороге слушали диски. В татарии остановили гайци за обгон в неположенном месте. Когда гаец услышал в машине аукцыон. Был только один вопрос. Диск? На утвердительный ответ только махнул рукой - езжай.
