My name is Nikolai Markov, alias "Bre" (instagram: @brenmfm, Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1NrFQbj7j4D4FcS7SwfqDj?si=Xsbbs1KPTf6et8yIU7iVQA), and I organise this fundraiser for a first vinyl release of Bulgarian Hip Hop on a European level! In times of endless streaming possibilities and strict regulations of public life, artists need to latch on to relevance wherever they can - which is precisely the issue. It can make or break an artist. Hence we should think of more durable ways to appreciate music over mass consumption.

Filip Ivanov, AKA "Secta" (instagram @secty_sect), inspired me to start and pull through with Hip Hop music, even though I was an absolute beginner, and him an absolute master when we met. As a sign of gratitude for the inspiration he gave me with his music to make my own, I decided to attempt to open up a new market for Bulgarian Hip Hop, as an integral part to European Hip Hop - Vinyl releases of our albums "Luft/Луфт" and "Интервенция" (= Intervenciya). His album "Класа", already available on Spotify since 2019 (https://open.spotify.com/album/1IIxmLqEwPzpOA6EHVe7j9?si=u-_iMWcPS1WRJlDplUp9mw), is an absolute masterpiece in its own right - The more one listens to it, the more it helps. His new album is expected to be the next level to his power to create. You can support the making of his new album, with exclusive insights into the process of creation here: https://www.patreon.com/SectySect.
My album "Luft" attempts to follow his example. The singles "Okeani", "Cheren Kolan" and "Znam Otkade" can be found on all streaming platforms and give a peak into what "Luft" may become. As a sign of gratitude for inspiration and a showing of pride in the music we maке, I organise this fund-raiser for a double vinyl release. Secta's "Интервенция" and Bre's "Luft/Луфт".
