Produced by the long term friend and colleague Abigail Knudson and mastered by Chris Chetland at KOG Studios, Tы мой океан captures the essence of longing and desire through its evocative melodies and emotive vocals. The song dives deep into the complexities of yearning for someone who may not be right, yet irresistibly draws you in like the ocean's embrace. The song is rooted in euro-pop; a genre that celebrates creativity, diversity, and the universal joy of music, making it a cornerstone of contemporary European popular culture

VÏKAE, based in the vibrant music scene of New Zealand, has crafted a musical journey that weaves between borders and languages. With roots firmly planted in Ukrainian culture and a global perspective shaped by life in New Zealand, VÏKAE brings a unique blend of influences to Tы мой океан, a standout in New Zealand’s diverse music landscape and a standout in VÏKAE’s growing discography.

Reflecting on the inspiration behind the song, VÏKAE shares, "I wanted to capture the intensity of emotions in a relationship that feels both exhilarating and dangerous. 'Tы мой океан' is a metaphor for being submerged in feelings that are overwhelming yet irresistible. The Ukrainian war has profoundly impacted my worldview and compelled me to express myself in multiple languages. Through music, I aim to convey the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of unity in times of adversity."

As anticipation builds for the release, VÏKAE invites listeners and music enthusiasts alike to experience Tы мой океан, a song that promises to resonate deeply with anyone who has ever felt the pull of a love that defies reason.

Tы мой океан will be available on all major streaming platforms from July 26th, 2024.
