For Peace. Against War. Who is not?*
A Compilation for the people of Ukraine

On February 24th 2022 Putin invaded Ukraine. Online we chatted about this and our situation as artists, feeling powerless in the face of this war.The only thing that came to mind was to use what we can do best for some greater good. Use music to raise money and support the people of Ukraine. So we put out this call:


“We are extremely concerned about the war in Ukraine and the aggression of Putin’s army.

We are trying to do our small part by raising money and raising awareness for the humanitarian disaster that is happening in Europe right now.

We are looking for artists from all around the world in the genres of electronic music, experimental, ambient, industrial, Techno and related styles for a compilation. We would like to make this as broad as possible, so if in doubt, please submit your tracks.

We encourage everyone from everywhere to submit. We especially encourage submissions from underrepresented communities, from the global south, minorities, female identifying artists, LGBTIQ*-artists, yes, we encourage Russian artists to speak up. All of you are invited to submit a track.

All proceeds from the sale of this compilation will be split evenly between the charities Vostok SOS and the Ukrainian Red Cross.”

vostok-sos.org/en/about/mission/ -Vostok SOS
redcross.org.ua -Ukrainian Red Cross

We had no idea that we would receive such HUGE and widespread support. People we had never met, from around the world, several of them Russians or of Russian decent donated tracks to the cause, making this compilation a reality.

With the daunting task of selecting tracks from all these submissions, in this short time (the release was scheduled just 5 days after the deadline — we want to raise the money fast!) we worked almost day and night, in shifts in the German and US-Eastern timezones to get this music out. We couldn’t include all the tracks that were sent to us. Some well-meaning people sent us a selection of tracks, asking us to just choose one of them (impossible with this deadline).

We hope that we made an album full of music, timbres, moods, expression, emotions that will convey feelings and help you do what you do, help you cope while you listen to it and motivate you to do more good things. Help a Ukrainian family, donate money to Ukraine, write to your representatives in parliament and urge them for meaningful change (like transitioning your country away from fossil fuels, one of Putin’s main leverages in this war) for a more peaceful world.

Please help us spread the word. If you like this project, if you like this music, please let us know. Please let your friends know, too. (If you don’t like it, please don’t hesitate to write as well).

For Peace.
Against War.
Who is not?

Elizabeth, Kai & Robert in March 2022
