ARS Invites Anklav – 22/03/2023

Today our guest dj and promoter @jewishmason presents his label Anklav!
@anklav_ua is a multi-faceted label that’s all about that left-field sound. Think UK bass, breakbeat, and experimental, baby! It all started as a sweet little promoter group throwing wicked parties in Kyiv, Ukraine, featuring top-notch talent from London and Berlin. Back then, Anklav’s beats were a rare stuff in Kyiv, so they quickly blew up on the local scene.

But when the russia started bloody war in Ukraine, Anklav’s party days came to a pause. So, the founder of the label decided to pivot the project and transform it into a full-blown music label. In December 2022, they dropped their first-ever charity release, which was hotter than hotcakes and sold out like wildfire.

Now, Anklav is cooking up their second release, and it’s going to be an absolute banger. Trust us, you don’t want to miss this! While they can’t throw parties like they used to, they’re still keeping the vibe alive and kicking with their cutting-edge tunes. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the sounds of Anklav!

Tracklist:

1. STRIPE N CO – ON N ON

2. Hockins – I N S

3. AK Sports vs Danny Goliger – Bad Bwoy Sound

4. BADWOR7H – Robin

5. Muriel & Stolen Velour – Fergalicious

6. Costa – Leprechaun Train Rider

7. Hermeth – Shake It

8. SVZZ – Scroll

ARS invites Polygon – 22/02/2023

Today our guest DJ, sound producer and cultural manager @pledov presents fresh tunes from label Polygon Records @polygon_ua and their charity compilation VOLUNTEERS vol.1: BLACKOUT. This is the first release in a series of charity compilations dedicated to the indomitable spirit of Ukrainians. Currently, our families are facing challenges such as living in a total blackout, with no electricity, water, and internet for 40-60 hours or more, in cold buildings, wearing every piece of clothing we have to keep ourselves warm. These are some of the hardest times we have experienced during this war, but we will stand to the end. This release is also dedicated to all the people around the world who have helped us and to those who still continue to support us during these difficult times. That’s where the name of the series (“VOLUNTEERS”) and release (“BLACKOUT”) came from. Anyone who has supported Ukraine in any way is a volunteer. In the context of this compilation, every musician, mastering engineer, artwork designer, and person who buys the release or a track from it is also a volunteer.

AIR RAID SIREN: THE VOICE OF DEATH – 23/11/2022

While thousands of Ukrainian artists are fighting and dying at the front from the guns of ruian soldiers, ruian musicians are performing in European clubs. While Ukrainian musicians donate every last penny of the money earned at the events, ruians receive grants and live in 5-star hotels in Paris. While Ukrainian musicians suffer from depreion and cannot find the strength to write music again, ruians receive studios in Europe to write new albums. While Ukrainian artists and musicians are dying from ruian missiles and their voices will never be heard, ruians are playing on European radios. The ruian empire is trying to destroy its former colony – Ukraine, but other former empires continue to broadcast the voice of the empire, the voice of death, the voice of genocide.

AIR RAID SIREN: “ODESA” – 26/10/2022

Odesa is a huge Ukrainian city on the shores of the Black Sea, where about 1 million people live. The city has a centuries-old history, rich cultural life and is distinguished by unique architecture, and the historical center of Odessa is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage. However, none of this matters to the Russians. Since spring, Odesa has been subject to constant missile attacks from the sea, and last month also from Iranian kamikaze drones. The city, which was usually overcrowded with tourists on warm days, turned into a fortress in constant anticipation of rocket attacks and the arrival of invaders. And after each attack, the streets of the city burst with the sounds of ambulances, covering the usual sounds of the sea and seagulls. And together with the change in the city, the music of the local underground was also transformed, responding to the challenges of the times, and reflecting these dark times.

Tracklist:

  1. Oleksii Lupashko – Sequence
  2. Del Cano – 24.02.22
  3. Eazyopoluse – Esulopoyzae
  4. LIGHT WAY – Human Error
  5. Phite Noise – Phyllobates Terribilis
  6. PRVRTN – KABAL
  7. kozy246 – Thrill Of All
  8. Native Outsider – Bloodshed
  9. Souzy (unnamed and unrealised)
  10. Renata Kazhan – rooms
  11. Casa Ukrania – Okupatsia

AIR RAID SIREN: ROCKETFALL – 27/07/2022

Since the beginning of the war, the terrorist state Russia has launched about 3,000 missiles over Ukraine. Only today, July 19 – the day I am writing this message, Sloviansk and Kramatorsk, Odesa and Kharkiv regions were attacked. Up to 40 rockets were fired at Nikopol, the city I was  born in. And this is not the end of the list. How much blood of Ukrainians must be spilled so that the world finally changes and this rocketfall stops?

Thousands of Ukrainian men and women are now at the front, defending our freedom. Every day they have to risk their lives. In such conditions, medical assistance is extremely important. High-quality first-aid kits are always needed at the front, when every second counts. This is what the “United” fund is doing. The goal of the fund is to provide our defenders with 5,000 first-aid kits. You can find details for donations on their website united.if.ua

AIR RAID SIREN: Kharkiv – 22/06/2022

Siren is a signal of danger, a sign that war is still not over, that we still have to fight for our freedom. Closer to the frontline, you may hear explosions and shelling – signs that death is walking near to you. This is how Kharkiv has been sounded since the first days of war. Through music, the city’s artists transform these alien sounds of war into sounds of rage and self-healing. This music and their stories should be heard all over the world to push this world to change for the better and help us stop this flow of russian rot.

Ordinary people, who were civilians yesterday, are now wearing military uniforms and defending their homeland with weapons in hand. The 247th Kharkiv Territorial Rifle Battalion @247_tro takes part in the defense of the Kharkiv district and its inhabitants. To perform its duties, the battalion always needs different types of equipment: walkie-talkies, tents, clothing… You can find more information about the battalion, their needs and details on the website 247tro.com . Remember: every $ 10 for military needs will save $ 100 for humanitarian needs in the future.

Tracklist:

  1. Remedy – Remains
  2. be_ca_di – НЕХУЙ ШАСТАТЬ
  3. Кривий Ріг – Другий Тиждень
  4. EstusPlus – Untitled
