The folk singer-songwriter Vasylysa invited me to produce her two-track EP of experimental folk-electronica. Together we crafted one ambient piece and the drum-and-bass folk anthem presented here. I proposed the “organic DnB” concept, and we recorded every source from scratch—including the Ukrainian bandura—to fuse traditional timbres with modern breakbeats.

“Working with Sasha feels very comfortable and always is very productive. He’s very responsible and he doesn’t let me get distracted, which usually happens when I’m trying to work on something. Yet it is done naturally, with great communication and a positive attitude.

Whenever we meet to record or write something together he’s always very engaged . Sasha is also a big help mentally, he’s great in cheering me up, when something doesn’t work the way I want and he’s also great with navigating difficulties and stressful situations.

Another crucial and great aspect of our work together is that from his side the result and the final product is always of great quality, which is something I’d love to comment more on, but I don’t have the proper terminology in order to describe all of the aspects of this work. But what I can say with 100% reassurance is that the final result is always amazing.

Im very happy to be able to work with Sasha and hope that this collaboration is gonna be one that stays for years. "
