Ivar & The Horde released the anti-war song “Broken Walls”, dedicated to raising money for the children affected by the War In Ukraine.

Leading on from the success of the Single, which amassed a total of 100,000 listeners, the brand-new “Broken Walls” Future Funk Squad Remix video is an opportunity for us to kickstart the GoFundMe campaign and to get us all to dig deep and contribute to the charity WarChild.

TURN THIS UP LOUD and watch the 'Future Funk Squad Remix' below:

[previewyoutube]YOUTUBE LINK[/previewyoutube]

Released on Black Razor Records. “Broken Walls” is the latest release from alternative rock/rap artists, Ivar & The Horde (Stu Brootal & Kieron Pepper), and draws inspiration from the war-themed arcade twin-stick shooter ‘Tiny Troopers: Global Ops’ which launched on 9th March.

The game highlights a series of military megalomaniacs from around the world, and their greed-filled desire to cause conflict and chaos.

Every contribution on the GoFundMe will receive a download code for:

Ivar & The Horde - Broken Walls Ivar & The Horde - Broken Walls (Future Funk Squad Remix)

All proceeds from the song on Bandcamp and the GoFundMe will be donated to War Child.

Please give as much as you can, because 1 in every 6 children in the world are affected by armed conflict and we can make a difference. If you can't support financially. Please, share the message and get it seen by as many people as possible.

If you would like to know more about the charity. Visit them here: WarChild.

Thank you.

The song is the lead track from Arcade Paradise. A Game where the protagonist Ashley feels held back, suffocated, and mentally downtrodden. Arcade Paradise is a story that resonates closely with the message of Safe In Our World. It is an inspirational message of what can be achieved, with help or just with the right motivation… how you CAN rise up against the machine, and how you CAN make your life great.
