Description

    "Even the Forest Hums: Ukrainian Sonic Archives 1971-1996" is a comprehensive and meticulously curated collection that offers an in-depth exploration of Ukraine's vibrant music scene during a period of immense societal and political upheaval. Spanning four decades, this record brings together a diverse range of tracks that reflect the resilience, creativity, and spirit of the Ukrainian people.

    Curated by Vitalii “Bard” Bardetskyi, the collection delves into the underrepresented yet profoundly impactful music that emerged under Soviet-era restrictions and beyond. The tracks encapsulate the evolution of Ukrainian music, from "Mustache Funk" blending traditional Ukrainian elements with Western influences, to the underground experimental sounds that flourished in the 80s and 90s.

    This release is not just a musical journey but a historical document, featuring insightful liner notes that guide listeners through each track, providing context and commentary on the cultural and political landscapes that shaped these sounds. The collection is housed in a stunning gatefold jacket adorned with the beloved folk art of Maria Prymachenko.

    As a commitment to supporting Ukraine during its current challenges, Light in the Attic will donate a portion of the proceeds from this release to Livyj Bereh, a volunteer group dedicated to rebuilding war-torn regions of Ukraine.

    Additionally, the Arcline Shop team will also donate a portion of the profits to the mentioned volunteer project.
