If confirmed, this will be really major news. Beseda and Bolukh are as high as it gets. Beseda was literally in charge of Ukraine intel (= guy who would have misled Putin on Ukraine's readiness to "welcome liberators"). Bolukh additionally in charge of disinformation.

i can't think of many other artists in the history of music that so relentlessly pursued new territories and expressions like Sakamoto. He brought avant-garde to pop and pop to avant-garde in a way that very few have been able to do since. pioneering until the very end ❤️❤️💔
