Released via Bandcamp, Kick Drums for Palestine brings together 12 contributions from underground producers including Voiski, Tripeo, Giri, and Sarah Zuchi. It moves across textured, hypnotic, and sometimes harsh terrain-techno built with tension and feeling. There’s no single aesthetic, but there is a shared reason for being here.
Every artist waived their fee. All proceeds go to organisations providing emergency food and water in Gaza.
The project was set up by a single individual, who prefers to remain anonymous. No label, no campaign team. Just a designer, a Bandcamp page, and a sense that silence was no longer an option.
“As I do not influence politics, nor even the politics of my own country, all I can do as an artist is to make art-protest art.”
Donations are routed through PayPal and transferred directly to UNRWA, the Red Crescent, or activists on the ground. The organiser is open about the practical limits but insists on one thing+acting now.
With flour priced at $20 a kilo and lentils at $30, the urgency is real.
For us in the DJ community, this release is more than a collection of tracks. It’s a challenge to remember that club culture can hold purpose.
You can buy the compilation on Bandcamp for €10 or more:
