    A Ukrainian rave legend has declared that bloodthirsty Russian president Vladimir Putin won\u2019t stop the country\u2019s thriving party scene \u2013 despite his brutal invasion. <\/p>\n

    Harry Pledov, a rave organiser who runs art festivals and parties across Ukraine, told the Daily Star that people up and down the war-torn state are \u201cnot even stressing\u201d about the risk of war.<\/p>\n

    \u201cWe're still getting involved \u2013 even when critical infrastructure is getting bombed\u201d, he declared.<\/p>\n

    And what's more, once the music is pumping, there's very little that can stop the party.<\/p>\n

    "The music will only stop if we spot missiles flying overhead," he told the Star.<\/p>\n

    \u201cPeople don't want to party when rockets are flying over their heads every few hours, you know?\u201d<\/p>\n

    Indefatigable party man Harry has been involved in Ukraine\u2019s music scene for around eight years. <\/p>\n

    He set up his most recent label, Polygon, which focuses on homegrown electronic music from native artists, just two months before the war broke out and changed Ukrainians' day-to-day lives entirely.<\/p>\n

    While he has organised bigger festivals in Kyiv, which in recent years has been described as the \u201cnew Berlin\u201d for its burgeoning clubbing scene, these days he\u2019s working on organising smaller parties with guest lists of 500-600 helping people let their hair down and party their troubles away.<\/p>\n
