Musical instruments for Habilitation Center

It's always nice to give gifts.

As you remember, on March 20, the first screening of the documentary "Resonance Beyond Borders: The Sounds of Ukraine" took place in London, created by SW Productions in collaboration with Hospitaldnb, Hospital Records and Sounds of Ukraine. This screening was a charity fundraiser for the Victory Beats project. In total, we managed to collect 25,000 UAH, with which we bought musical instruments.

And on April 13, we were very happy to present them to the First Abilification Center (Lviv) Guitar, djembe, bells, tambourine, shaker, glucophone - now, in addition to relaxation therapy from Victory Beats, the center's residents will be able to reveal themselves even more and express their inner world through music.

This event became even more outstanding because the group "Varenyky z vishnyami" also visited the center, performing vesnyankas - traditional Ukrainian songs in honor of the arrival of spring, and also telling extremely interesting stories about the origin of these songs. So, instead of long speeches, we immediately moved on to playing instruments to the songs.

And at the end, Sagittarius Zen held a master class in DJing, which aroused quite a bit of interest from the veterans.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped implement this good deed. There is even more interesting things ahead!

About RoMZeS

Before the full-scale invasion, Roman was a sailor - a boatswain on a tugboat. In March 2022, he went to war as an infantryman. He lost both legs in battle. While undergoing rehabilitation, he ended up at Victory Beats music therapy, where, under the mentorship of Vlad Fisun, he was able to realize his long-standing dream - to learn to DJ.

Ambiotik feat. Moonbird — Jelly based life forms

This improvisation was recorded during a joint music therapy session for Ukrainian veterans.

Ambient music is able to immerse people in the depths of the subconscious and experience unusual transcendental experiences. Once a participant in the Victory Beats music therapy described her state as the pleasant swaying of a jellyfish in the ocean.

This improvisation takes us into the deep past, to the origin and development of life in the boundless ocean and further - to union with the universe. Somewhat jokingly and symbolically it is called "Jelly based life forms"
