On December 19, the unique charity online stream “IT is CULTURE CODE” will take place, organized by the IT company N-iX on Yevhen Yanovych’s YouTube channel. The event’s goal is to raise 10 million UAH in partnership with OKKO for the “Come Back Alive” foundation under the “OKO ZA OKO” project. The collected funds will be directed toward purchasing the tenth communication and control complex “Pulstron” for one of the Air Assault Forces (AAF) units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Music as a Code of National Culture

The concept of the “IT is CULTURE CODE” stream revolves around exploring four key stages in the development of modern Ukrainian music:

• Emergence: A time when “Mustache Funk” and drive dominated, and the “Chervona Ruta” festival unveiled new faces in Ukrainian music, becoming a symbol of cultural revival.
• Birth of the Indie Scene: An era when rock blended with rap, folk intertwined with jazz, and musical hits aired on TV screens.
• Oblivion: A phase when national musical values faded into the shadows of foreign trends.
• Revival: The modern stage where Ukrainian music once again resonates across all popular platforms.

Stream Headliners:

Kurgan & Aggregat, Viktor Pavlik, Dorofeeva, Go-A, Monatik, Oleh Skrypka, Mertvyi Piven, Kryhitka, Kazka, Khrystyna Soloviy, Shumei, and many more.

Donation Motivators:

Vasyl Baidak, Danya Povar, Anastasiia Orudzhova, Anton Tymoshenko, Lions On A Jeep, and Veterany Kosmichnyh Viysk will inspire everyone to donate.
