A Label Invaded: Ukrainian DJs and Musicians Mix Art and War
Soumis par Aggregation le sam, 05/14/2022 - 13:00KHARKIV, UKRAINE — In the trendy shisha bar in the center of Kharkiv where they’re taking a quick break from work, Valery Neyman and his co-worker look slightly out of place, even in post-invasion Ukraine: clad in full camouflage military attire and bulletproof vests, assault rifles resting against the wall.
“Work” for the pair is providing first response to a shelling: They secure the area after a missile or artillery shell hits the city to then remove shrapnel and any unexploded ordnance. Valery is expecting me and gets up to shake my hand.
