My @youtube story Part 3 of 5:
Back to my 10 years of life on YouTube, here is another step, which was one of the most important in my experience on this platform.
In Kyiv 2020, during the Covid times, one of the biggest festivals in Ukraine - @atlasweekend - decided to organize a stream right in the middle of the river.
Due to the restrictions of crowd attendance we were only with small boats, which could be around the main barge with the DJ.
During some time this video was one of the most viewed on my YouTube channel and it was also one of the inspirations to start to record my mixes in different locations around the world 💚
Now, when I watch this set, I have a mixture of feelings: I still remember every second of incredible emotions of that day and from another side my heart feels pain because my home is being attacked by russia every single day.
Since the war started, it’s a first year when Atlas Weekend team decided to try to organize the festival again. I support them with all my heart and hope that our people will have a chance at least for a few hours to come back to the life which we had before 2022: where you didn’t think about rockets above your head, or running into the shelter every few hours and living a terrible life 24/7.
