From 1980-1984 Marko Farion wrote, engineered, produced and was the host for a community affairs program on Cleveland college radio WRUW 91.1 FM at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) called Free Ukraine.  It was sponsored by the Ukrainian Student Organization at CWRU and was an informative program teaching a non-Ukrainian public about the history, traditions, music and the struggle for freedom of the Ukrainian nation that at that time was still under the Soviet Socialist regime.  Here are some archival sounds from the show and some rare (currently unreleased on CD) songs that were popular in the early 80's.  

Musical curation oozing with dark sparkle

“Rarely do we find an Artist that Satisfies Our Appetite for Magnificent Music. Stimulating the Soul and Expanding the Boundaries of Artistry and Free Speech.”

"Sasa's music sounds somewhere between John Lennon and Tupac Shakur, with a healthy dose of Bob Marley."

The music of Sasa Hasid RA begins with the rich influence of his native islands, the Reggae & Calypso of Trinidad and the Salsa of Puerto Rico, and is activated by eclectic Jazz and psychedelic Rock.  Weaving words and sounds into musical paintings, he expresses a keen insight into the human condition, while simultaneously sparking the imagination of music lovers world-wide. Sasa Hasid RA is one of today's most enigmatic, magnetic and controversial artists.

All music ever played, plays on. Music is Alive, a perpetual motion of sound, cosmic music resonating in eleven dimensional hyperspace.
