The pair have linked up for another joint project, out later this month via Tropopause Records.
A new collaborative release from Berlin-based producer STACY.O and Ukrainian poet Марія Степанюк has been announced. ОДИН (translating to ‘one’ in English) came together digitally, with the duo exchanging ideas, field recordings from Kyiv and Kharkiv, and poetry online. The artwork comes courtesy of STACY.O’s brother. Bandcamp profits from the sale of the new EP – which follows a prior collaboration, released in 2022 – will be donated to volunteers-and-musicians, NFNR and Lenoczka, who are working and fundraising for the Ukrainian relief effort, details a statement for the project.
Speaking on the new EP, STACY.O said: “While our very first self-release was there to embrace mutual exchange and support for maintaining mental health, our latest EP reflects the dichotomy between seeking inner peace and expressing an unlit, experimental, and restless sonic sound.”
“Our songs reflect my personal boundaries,” added Степанюк, “a new kind of humanity with weapons for safety and dark humour, and also show the resilient spirit of the Kharkiv community.”
ОДИН is out on 19 October. Listen to the first single below.
