Standard Deviation and Mystictrax team up for Ukraine fundraiser compilation

Over 65 artists have teamed up to contribute to a brand new compilation fundraising for Ukraine.

Titled ‘РАЗОМ ЗА УКРАЇНУ’ - or 'Together For Ukraine’ - the fundraiser compiles 65 tracks from the likes of Ben Sims, Laurent Garnier, Nene H, Miss Kittin, Omon Breaker, and more electronic artists.

The compilation is put together by Ukrainian labels Standard Deviation and Mystictrax, run by Lostlojic, as well as iconic Kyiv nightclub ∄.

"It’s been more than a week since Russia has invaded Ukraine, destroying Ukrainian cities and shattering the lives of millions of people, whose world will never be the same again,” the group said.

“The Ukrainian music and culture community is devastated by the shocking crimes of the Russian government. We wish for peace in our country above all, and we are doing everything in our power to support the people of Ukraine.”

All profits from the compilation will go toward four different charities, including the ‘Return Alive’ fund in aid of the Ukrainian frontline, the National Bank of Ukraine for Humanitarian Assistance, ‘Ukraine Pride’ for LGBTQIA+ soldiers and victims, and the ‘Голос Дітей’ helping children affected by the war.

“Right now It is most critical to raise funds for the Ukrainians bravely defending their country, and for those, who had to leave their homes behind. We would like to express special gratitude to all the artists who got involved,” they said.

“We are sincerely grateful to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and to every soldier, every volunteer, every activist, every person who brings us closer to victory and freedom.”
