TYME collective consists of a diverse group of people with Ukrainian, Nigerian, Brazilian, German and British backgrounds. Our collective was born out of a shared love for contemporary music and visual arts, carried forward by a common interest in a richer perspective and shared future. The idea behind TYME is to create cultural events that bring together artists, musicians and creatives from different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. We donate all of the raised money to Ukrainian charity organizations and NGOs.
So far, we have organized over 9 events, merging musical performances with contemporary art. For our latest event series “TIES'' we partnered with Mariana Berezovska from Borshch magazine to celebrate the resilience of Berlin’s music communities and diasporas affected by political oppression, war, and inequality through music performances and workshops at Refuge Worldwide, Kantine am Berghain and Arkaoda.

About the release
TYME is a newly found label that provides a space for emerging artists from Ukraine and the world to release music that transcends boundaries. TYME is not only the name of the label but also represents a collective of individuals united by a shared passion for contemporary electronic music and a commitment to foster cross-cultural exchange. At its core, the release operates as a fundraiser: all profits generated are dedicated to supporting charities in Ukraine.
For its debut release 'On the Silver Shore' , TYME invited 28 artists from different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. Their creations span across the wide spectrum of electronic music, ranging from experimental and ambient to hypnotic and groovy techno. Notable contributors include iconic artists such as Schacke, Shackleton, Cressida, Nastya Vogan, Pavel Milyakov and Yan Cook.
Inspired by the timeless imagery of Mykola Vingranovsky's poetry, 'On the Silver Shore' serves as a lyrical gateway into the soulful landscapes and enduring narratives of Ukrainian culture, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in a melodic odyssey that echoes the essence of the poet's profound verse. With this compilation we want to not only honor the cultural richness of the nation but also show our solidarity and support.
