Ukrainian project BlazerJacket release single ‘Cyberpunk’ with official AMV
Ukrainian cyberpunk project BlazerJacket released the single “Cyberpunk” on June 19, 2026, a digital track paired with an official AMV about an AI dystopia.
BlazerJacket, the Ukrainian cyberpunk and industrial project of Denis Cherryman and Hybri.Mod, released the single “Cyberpunk” on June 19, 2026. The BlazerJacket “Cyberpunk” single is a digital release, available on Bandcamp and streaming platforms, and arrives with an official AMV. Denis Cherryman and Hybri.Mod composed and mixed the track, Hybri.Mod mastered it, and Cherryman created the cover artwork.
The track pairs heavy guitars with dark electronic pressure and glitch textures, continuing the heavier direction the project has pushed through its recent releases. Its subject is the gap between the cyberpunk future once imagined in fiction and the connected, algorithm-driven present.
BlazerJacket frame the song as a reflection on that shift rather than a warning. “This song was born from a reflection on how the cyberpunk future we dreamed about has quietly become reality. AI, algorithms, endless connectivity, and digital lives are now part of everyday life, yet many people still search for meaning and purpose,” the project stated.
BlazerJacket ‘Cyberpunk’ AMV: an AI dystopia on screen
The single’s official video, credited as BlazerJacket – Cyberpunk (feat. Anna Turing), sets the track to an animated dystopia of unstable neural links, surveillance drones and corrupted signals. The band describe it as a music video “from a broken future where the neural link is unstable, the simulation is active, and the system is already falling apart.”
“Cyberpunk” follows the 2025 single “Overcharged” and continues a run of releases that has moved the project from synth-driven cyberpunk toward a guitar-heavy, industrial register.
About BlazerJacket
BlazerJacket is a project created in Ukraine by Denis Cherryman, also of Dirty Bird 13 and The Cherry Men, with Hybri.Mod. The project draws on cyberpunk, retrowave, sci-fi and the cult action films of the 1980s and 1990s, building conceptual releases around a near-future world. It debuted with the EP “The First” in 2020 and issued a series of singles before the EPs “The Second” and “Terrorstate” in 2023.
The duo have said the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 marked their sound, turning sirens, blackouts and wartime reality into darker, sharper material. BlazerJacket have shared stages with Dance with the Dead, Magic Sword, Jeremiah Kane, Cygnosic and SynthAttack, and hold a residency on the Comic Con Ukraine music stage. After the 2026 rework “Myelin Void (Rebuilt)”, “Cyberpunk” extends the project’s turn toward heavier guitars while keeping its cyberpunk concept at the centre.
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
