‘And In the End..’ is a fundraising album for the charity Help Musicians UK with every penny (after Bandcamp/Paypal fees) going direct to the charity.

Civil disobedience – လူထုမနာခံမှု part 4/4 (Syrphe)

Following the events in Myanmar in 2021, and after several email exchanges with friends (activists and artists) there, I decided to set up another compilation project on order to collect money to offer VPN subscriptions to journalists, activists, artists (…) based in Myanmar to allow them to easily bypass censorship and communicate with the outside world. The benefits will also be transferred to a friend in Yangon who well wisely use the money to help and support demonstrators and activists who fight for freedom as well as social, ethnic, sexual, philosophical (…) equality and respect.
