These are propaganda-style videos showing the exploits of frontline Ukrainian soldiers. The footage, shot usually from a drone, shows the destruction and horrors of war, and all are combined with music. Typically, this music is heavy metal or an emerging style of EDM recently made popular by TikTok, called Drift Phonk.

Drift Phonk, originally created by producers in Russia in the late 2010s, is high-tempo, bass-centric, distorted music. In the case of artists like PROBASS and Hardi and МЮСЛІ UA, Ukrainian folk-music elements tend to feature including sampled sounds from a Sopilka flute and fiddle. These cultural elements have lead to DJ PROBASS - real name Artem Tkachenko - to claim this music is now a sub-genre wholly Ukrainian in nature, UkroBas (Ukrainian Bass). Their music is distinctly Ukrainian and specifically, aggressive, matching the conflict videos shared by the Facebook pages of the various active battalions in areas such as Bakhmut. 

The slick production of these videos does create a rather Hollywood action film effect and the music stands as a large part of this. However, the important distinction to make is the reality of these videos. The drastic use of the distinctive Phonk bass-drop of the track  Доброго вечора [Where Are You From?] landing in sync with an artillery strike on a Russian tank could be taken from any film about modern warfare, that is until you realise that the music has accompanied the deaths of the servicemen inside.
