About this label-project

In April 2022, we, Ukrainian label Prostir, started a new sub-label and cultural-political project

I SHALL SING UNTIL MY LAND IS FREE

Today, Ukraine is fighting for its freedom.

Ukrainian resistance needs support – our territorial defense, hospitals, evacuation teams, and local volunteers who deliver food in shelters or save animals. Requests are coming every hour from big foundations, activists, and our friends and colleagues from the music scene who joined the Ukrainian army.

By releasing and selling experimental music, visual art, and other merchandise, we generate funds and then distribute them between various Ukrainian self-defense and humanitarian organizations, as well as local volunteer activists.

Besides the donations, another important aspect of our work is cultural diplomacy, when artists from the International experimental scene take a direct stand in their support of Ukraine.


We don’t know when this war with russia will end. As long as this fight goes on, we will continue to take our part in it on our professional and artistic levels. We have to plan long-term, there is and will be a lot of work to do to complete the victory and restoration of Ukraine. That is why we started this cultural-political project.


The label is run by Dmytro Fedorenko and Kateryna Zavoloka.

This label was created with great support and assistance from our dear friends and colleagues from Staalplaat (Amsterdam) and The Label (Edmonton), and two Polish pressing plants – Monotype and X-Disc, who were very kind to give us special timing terms during the first crucial months of this project.

The name I SHALL SING UNTIL MY LAND IS FREE is taken from a Muslimgauze track, that also strongly resonates with various stories from Ukrainian defenders singing or playing instruments in tranches when under fire.


Slava Ukraini!
