Real Projects • Real Receipts

Projects & Use Cases.

Music videos with 22 million views. A song that paid for a Ugandan school. A waste-management enterprise. A climate-song competition with a 10-year-old winner. These are real projects from the Blastbeat / CAN Music / Climate Actions Now ecosystem — and the blueprint for what your school’s ESE could become.

🌍 Climate Anthem • 22M+ views

Oh, Environment

A song to transform the world — written and performed by Giles et Diego with the voices of Nkuringo Bright Future School and Nkuringo Orphanage Foundation. What started as a poem from African children became one of the most-shared climate songs out of the continent.

The blueprint: take a piece of student work (a poem), pair it with a serious producer (Giles et Diego), centre it in a real community (Nkuringo, Uganda), and turn the proceeds back into the cause. That’s the Blastbeat ESE model in one project — with a 22-million-view receipt at the end of it.

🎉 Music funds a school

Dance Be Happy

An organic-house track and EP celebrating the Batwa community, produced with Giles et Diego. The full proceeds went to the Nkuringo Bright Future School and Orphanage. A literal, recorded example of art turning into infrastructure.

A haven of learning between the Virunga Volcanoes and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest — founded by Atanazius “Arthur” Kajubwami on 4 February 2013. The community that the Oh, Environment and Dance Be Happy projects funded, and where Blastbeat’s Africa story is being written from the ground up.

🎤 Spotlight Artist • Uganda

Sir Kisoro

Hayes Willit — known as Sir Kisoro — is a Ugandan artist from the forests near Kisoro, blending Afrobeat, Hip Hop and Amapiano. He’s the kind of homegrown talent Blastbeat’s Talent Manager role is designed to build: a real career, a real audience, real revenue, and a platform that takes a percentage back into climate action.

🎤 Cross-continent • Festival stage

Africa Under Irish Skies

A musical journey for climate action — the project that took African artists to Electric Picnic, one of Ireland’s major festivals, and turned the relationship between two continents into a live, ticketed, multi-artist show. The kind of large-scale event the FootBeat / MACC verticals scale toward.

🎵 Competition • Under-35s

Songs For Our Climate

A free, open climate-song competition for anyone under 35. The 2022 winner was a 10-year-old in Turkey, Rüzgar Tonak, co-writing with his guitar teacher. Prize: a one-song publishing-deal advance plus promotion. Proof that climate art doesn’t need a budget — it needs a platform.

♻️ Climate × Enterprise

Township Social Enterprises

Bin Scrub turned township plastic waste into a paying business. Shack’s CAN Breakfast Club runs a feeding scheme like an enterprise. The Greening of Zisukhanyo is a community greening project at scale. The same playbook a Blastbeat ESE can run inside one school term.

Your School Could Be Next.
