Cultural and Creative Responsibility Statement
At Cuddly Monkey Records and Svaihymn, we take great care to approach all international and culturally inspired works with respect, sensitivity, and integrity.
Our artistic mission is to breathe new life into timeless legends and stories through music — and to share them with the world in a respectful, creative, and transparent way.
No cultural appropriation — only cultural appreciation.
We do not aim to imitate, stereotype, or exploit any traditions or cultures.
Instead, our focus is on universally meaningful, poetic, and emotional narratives — often inspired by common heritage and public domain tales — which we transform into modern musical experiences.
Key Principles of our work:
- We only use publicly available, public domain or culturally universal stories, legends, and fairy tales (e.g. classical myths, European folk tales, universal love stories).
- We avoid sensitive historical topics, national symbols, religious elements, or any cultural expressions that could be misinterpreted or seen as exploitative.
- We work with utmost care when combining language elements from other countries. Songs may include simple, poetic phrases in local languages (e.g. for international audience connection), always respecting native speakers and avoiding misuse.
- Before release, every song is checked multiple times for pronunciation, cultural appropriateness, and overall respectful representation.
- We do not claim any national, cultural, or traditional authority. These songs are artistic interpretations and personal expressions of timeless themes — love, loss, destiny, dreams — designed for global enjoyment.
- We do not sell any "culture products". Our music is made purely to share beautiful stories and emotions — without commercializing any specific tradition or cultural identity.
Our commitment:
- We are always open to dialogue and feedback from all cultures and communities.
- If any content is unintentionally inappropriate or incorrect, we are willing to review and make corrections immediately.
- We support a respectful, inclusive, and global creative environment.
All works of Svaihymn and DJ Cuddly Monkey are published under fair and respectful artistic standards.
