Andriy Khlyvnyuk, frontman of Ukrainian band Boombox dropped his US tour to defend his country.
He was kind enough to let me remix this recent video of him singing a Ukranian folk song.
All royalties will go to Ukraine's aid

Song available on Bandcamp for download. Will hopefully be on all streaming platforms soon bit.ly
The response to this song has been incredible.
In a day the song has accrued over $7000 in royalties from Facebook, Bandcamp & Youtube. It gives me great pleasure to give all of that back to Ukraine's aid.
It's now available on all streaming platforms: bit.ly
First royalty payment done βœ…
Thanks to everyone who has supported the song! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦
Volunteers in Odessa, Ukraine loading sand to protect their city. All while this legend rocks drums to my remix of Oy U Luzi Chervona Kalyna.
Apart from raising funds, I wanted my remix to raise spirits, so seeing this makes me very happy πŸ™πŸΌβ€οΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦
Proud of what Adriy has done to raise awareness, funds & spirits around the world through his rendition of this powerful folk song.
@pinkfloyd have now also just collabed on the song, making it their first release in 28 years. Crazy stuff! 🀯

This pastor from Warsaw (Poland) played my Kalyna remix during his Easter Service this weekend ❀️
Broken buildings. Unbroken spirit.
β€œAnd we'll take that red kalyna and we will raise it up
And we, our glorious Ukraine, shall, hey - hey, rise up - and rejoice!”
Glad to say that this song has raised over $70k USD (R1,23m) for Humanitarian Aid for Ukraine since it was released at the start of the war in March.
