Victory Beats is expanding its cooperation in the direction of music therapy. We have started cooperation with the first habilitation center in Ukraine, Lviv Habilitation Center. This is a barrier-free living space for the socialization of veterans and civilians affected by the war. Together with our friends and project partners Ambiotik and Sagittarius Zen , we conduct therapeutic sessions for patients and center employees, introduce them to the essence of music therapy and its directions.
It is a great honor for us to help our heroes and we strive to spread music therapy to other institutions and organizations in the country.
Charity music project Victory Beats celebrates 1 year!
A year ago, the Victory Beats project started with a simple idea: people could listen to good music and donate directly to volunteers as a thank-you. And everything turned around. During this year, we helped to buy cars, drones, humanitarian aid, evacuated women and children from the frontline zone, helped with rehabilitation, and even realized the dreams of veterans and victims of war.
150 incredible musicians and DJsincluding many world stars, happily supported the project and greatly helped its development. Over the year, we have evolved from the idea of a set -> donation to numerous promotions, exclusives and even gifted with a compositiondedicated to the project.
Undoubtedly, the great achievement of Vitory Beats is the starting of music therapy for veterans and victims of war. Today, there are dozens of people in several rehabilitation centers and hospitals in Lviv and Kalush who, with the help of music, were able to significantly improve their mental state, and sleep, reduce anxiety and phantom pains, and thanks to playing musical instruments, they also discovered their long-standing creative dreams of self-realization And we continue to move forward - let's see what will happen in a year.
And now we're celebrating the anniversary with world music legend Seb Taylor!
His multi-genre projects - Kaya Project, Angel Tears, Hibernation, Shakta - are well-known to every connoisseur of quality electronic music. And today, with him, we are starting a festive distribution of musical gifts and souvenirs for your support.

Про GusGus
GusGus спочатку був створений у 1995 році як кіно та акторський колектив. Назва групи відсилає до німецького фільму 1974 року «Алі: Страх з’їдає душу» (нім. Angst essen Seele auf) Райнера Вернера Фассбіндера, де жіночий персонаж готує кус-кус для свого коханого, вимовляючи його Гусгус. Музика GusGus є еклектичною, і хоча в основному класифікується як техно, тріп-хоп і хаус, група також експериментувала з іншими стилями. Вони зробили ремікси пісень таких популярних виконавців, як Björk, Depeche Mode, Moloko та Sigur Rós.
In recent months, the front line has shifted significantly. The enemy captured several settlements and moved closer to cities where many civilians still live (Pokrovsk, Mirnograd).
Volunteer initiative "Ne sami” helps people leave dangerous areas, find housing, and adapt to a new place. Now, the number of applications for evacuation from people who left for Pokrovsk from the newly occupied territories and from people who decided to leave Pokrovsk and Mirnograd due to the deterioration of the situation has increased sharply.
First of all, we are talking about approx of 50 women with children. Approximately UAH 100,000 (~$2500) is not enough for the volunteers to evacuate them (repair the evacuation car and fuel), find a permanent home, and provide for the first time.
Victory Beats joins the campaign and together with Chlorophil and Synchronos Recordings we prepared special gifts for donors. Donate from $5 or more, you will have the opportunity to win one of 5 music therapy albums recorded by world stars of the chill-out and ambient scenes.
The specialty of the music produced by the Synchronos Recordings label is its ability to calm the nervous system, reduce stress levels and help restore internal balance - critical psychological disorders that are characteristic of both adults and children who have post-traumatic syndrome due to war or other difficult situations. Thus, by supporting this collection, you can help many more people.
Thank you

The length of Ukraine's front line with the Russian army is about 3,700 km. According to Donetsk police data for June 2023, ≈ 500,000 civilians still remain in the front-line territories. The reasons are different, but when the departure finally happens, the most important question arises - how and where to live next. The state is taking certain steps in this direction, but they are not enough.
The volunteer initiative "Ne Sami" (Not Alone) helps people to leave dangerous areas, find housing, and adapt to a new place. For this, a team of volunteers conducts an information campaign in the front-line territories in order to spread information about evacuation to civilians as best as possible, evacuate people with pets, and as many things as they consider necessary to take. If there are complex situations, for example, it is necessary to transport a large number of domestic animals, a personalized solution is sought. If a family cannot use public transport under certain circumstances, they take such a family by their own transport from point A to point B without transfers or organize a comfortable remote evacuation. On the spot, people are offered options for permanent housing, which will remain with them even after the end of the war.
Hundreds of people found new housing during the initiative. What's more, each family is assigned a manager who helps with adaptation with psychological support, medical care, help with documents, finding schools and jobs, and more. Also, together with Victory Beats , the organization held a separate collection for the urgent evacuation of 50 women and children from the front-line zone in May 2024.
A special musical opportunity to support the project
German-based Anglo-Swiss group Lebanon Hanover released a double single "Better Than Going Under"/"Kyiv". The second song, of course, is dedicated to the capital of Ukraine. Embodying poignant reflections on the harsh reality faced by those caught up in war-torn regions. All income from the release of the track will be given to "Ne Sami" - to help people and families who are near the front line in Ukraine.
You can learn more about the current activities of "Ne sami" on their Instagram
