So far, the repertoire of "Dobre" does not have enough songs for the album. Fans often asked questions about the rehash of the popular songs of Sergei's group. Participants (Mikhail Zhukov and Denis Dotsenko) are categorically against such PR, as they believe that it is better to create something new than copy something.

Popularity

During the existence of the group "Dobre" Michael has not received much popularity. These songs listened to a small circle of fans. Because of the vivid glory of his brother, Sergei, Mikhail always remained in the shadows. Little was known about him. While Sergei never covered his brother in the press, in general, publicly. Mikhail Zhukov is a great singer. But no one knew about this before. Mikhail actively developed his musical abilities, was engaged in creativity. And so, when the band began to sound less and less, Sergei began to move away from this project, started broadcasting, his solo career.

A decision was made on a joint project with a sibling. It is not known whether this was a deliberate move for the sake of renewal of popularity or whether this impulse has only creative motives. Nevertheless, when the Internet and other media began to appear resonant statements about this event, many music fans turned to Mikhail. Thus, the peak of activity fell for 2013-2014 (continues to this day). Michael writes his songs, performs in major cities of Russia. He has many admirers. External resemblance to his brother, repertoire, lyricism of the songs interested not only fans of "Hands Up", but also new people who are true fans of our hero's creativity.

In particular, it can include: "Lyuba Girl" together with the Opium Project, the song "1000 years" with "One Brotherhood". There are also solo works, for example "Little Girl".

Collaboration

In 2014, a new project was announced - "The Zhukov Brothers".

It was preserved in the framework of a joint new project. The premiere song of the musicians was "You are my sea". The clip was shot on one of the islands of Thailand. The Zhukov brothers appeared in unusual images, which the song story demanded : they were pretty pilots of civil aviation. The story of the song about how the influential, rich father of the beloved simple pilot was against their feelings. In order to prevent this, he hid his daughter on a distant island.

In general, this project was repeatedly criticized by musical gurus and was regarded as a desperate PR move by Sergei Zhukov. Toughly compared the voice of Alexei Potekhin and our hero, saying that, in principle, nothing much has changed, there is no novelty. Nevertheless, Sergei and Mikhail Zhukov loudly announced themselves, and the evaluation of the music judges is already playing little role. The joint record has the name "Fall asleep".
