“Guelder Rose” is a Ukrainian song with ancient roots. In 2022, it became a widely recognized anthem of Ukrainian resistance and global solidarity as the world rallied behind Ukraine.

Human Rias, DOBé and Olha’s rendition is rich in optimism with hopeful chords rising up through the mix. The drums roll onwards and elevate your spirits, while the gorgeous vocals convey messages of hope. It’s a brilliantly stirring track that packs a devastating punch with plenty of the signature sophisticated production you expect from Rias and DOBé. This melodic techno piece, inspired by the Ukrainian song “Chervona Kalyna” and featuring lyrics in both English and Ukrainian, is more than just music—it’s a call to action.

In response to the heartbreaking Okhmatdyt tragedy in July, which brought global attention to the suffering of Ukrainian children, artists Human Rias and DOBé, together with Ukrainian activist and artist Olha Borovyk, have launched a fundraiser to support the child victims of the war against Ukraine.

Scheduled for release on August 2nd, 2024, on the Ukrainian label SVET, “Guelder Rose” will be available for purchase on various digital platforms and Bandcamp, where buyers can contribute any desired amount towards the cause. The fundraiser is meant to collect funds for Save Ukraine: a Ukrainian charitable organization established in 2014 that coordinates dozens of organizations, volunteers, individuals, and legal entities to help those affected by war, with a special emphasis on children.

Artist Human Rias and Ukrainian activist Olha Borovyk debuted their powerful new track «Guelder Rose» at EXIT Festival, on July 12 at the renowned Dance Arena.
