You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.204.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 20:46, 23 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Darka & Slavko''' (((Lang-uk|Дарка й Славко))) was a popular musical duo of two first-generation [[Ukrainian Americans]] based in [[New York City]], Darka Konopada and [[Slau|Slavko Halatyn]], who met in the mid-1980's through their involvement with a Ukrainian college group's poetry reading for political prisoners. This launched a ten-year musical collaboration as well as an eight-year marriage.<ref>((cite news|title=Дует «Дарка та Славко» |url=http://www.ivasyuk.org.ua/names.php?lang=uk&id=duet_darka_slavko |website=ivasyuk.org.ua |access-date=16 May 2023 |language=uk |trans-title=Duo "Darka  & Slavko"))</ref>

Under the name Darka & Slavko, the duo released four albums and produced various projects for other musicians. Their work focused on creating a sound that combined traditional [[Music of Ukraine|Ukrainian music]] with contemporary flavors.

Their first, self-titled album, included a cover of [[Volodymyr Ivasyuk]]'s "[[Chervona Ruta (song)|Chervona Ruta]]", arranged to a [[reggae]] beat.

Their second album, ''Khvylyna'', gave way to more sophisticated arrangements, and the duo began to write original songs. In 1995, Darka & Slavko released their final studio album, ''Povir'', which consisted entirely of original compositions. The track "Spivtsi" debuted at Ukraine's first contemporary music festival, [[Chervona Ruta (festival)|Chervona Ruta]], in 1989, where the duo and their newly formed group won Favorite International Band.<ref>[[Svoboda (newspaper)|Svoboda.]] Ukrainian Daily. [http://www.svoboda-news.com/arxiv/pdf/1996/Svoboda-1996-124.pdf  VOL. СІI. No. 119. Saturday, June 24, 1995]</ref>

Darka & Slavko continued to perform around the world, and in addition to their studio work, they also recorded a live album with jazz renditions of their favorite songs. In 1997, the two split up personally and professionally.

Both have continued their music careers. Halatyn recorded an album in 2001, titled ''The Weight of Words'', under the name [[Slau]], and Konopada sings under the name Darka Dusty.

In July 2012, Darka & Slavko agreed to perform a reunion concert at the Ukrainian American Youth Association in [[Ellenville, New York]].
