Russia has shock of the world, when invaded its neighbouring country Ukraine. The war in Ukraine is creating a humanitarian crisis, with analysis saying up to 5 million Ukrainians could seek refuge in neighbouring countries like Poland, Romania, Hungary and others.
We at The Sound Clique have compiled a list of ways to help support not only Ukrainian artists, but also civilians, children, animals and the Ukrainian army.
- We are sharing an open-source sheet created by @ifonly_uk including a list of Ukrainian artists and music labels directly affected by the Russian invasion. In this list you can find the artist/label’s name, the genre they specialize in and a link to their Bandcamp, where you can support them.

You can also support the artists on other channels such as Beatport, Traxsource, streaming platforms etc. however Bandcamp is the most favorable because the artists will retain about 82% of the total funds. Moreover every first Friday of the month, Bandcamp waives their commission fees.
