DelvinA tale as old as the sun and yet more relevant now than ever—war! Clay Joule, in collaboration with Truwan Studio, led the creation of this song. Joule not only wrote the lyrics but also handled the production, bringing the vision to life. Alex Gusinski’s guitar work adds depth to the composition, while Elisa Mammoliti enriches it with her harmony vocals. Together, they’ve crafted a rock masterpiece, “Motherland is Calling,” that avoids taking sides, instead reflecting on the devastating impact of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and emphasizing the priceless value of peace. The song draws inspiration from the ancient RUS state, which once united both Ukrainians and Russians. With captivating guitar melodies providing a solid foundation, the rest of the arrangement seamlessly falls into place.
The music video is an ingenious depiction of what the song is all about—a visually striking extension of the music itself. Its Vikings-esque depiction is captured by that attention-grabbing storyline that seamlessly blends creative anime, real-life footage of media and politicians, a theme around the preparation of war and its dire impacts with a contrasting vision of what’s like without war—a peaceful people drenched in this limitlessly tranquil community, indulging in music, singing and dancing, and other fitting folklore.
Lyrically, “Motherland is Calling” goes far with a deeper meaning of cultural pride and a great extent of bravery and effort in seeking peace and unification without really losing its stand in dignity and cultural identity. It is a brilliant art piece with all the hallmarks of a well-thought and executed song.
The production is top-notch. The forward, solid, and stunning progressive rock beat characterizes it. As it progresses, that awe-inspiring guitar solo showcases such guitar virtuosity, not forgetting the reggae-like vibe the song adopts later on, highlighting its far-reaching appeal.
“Motherland is Calling” is such an efficient tune that was crafted without taking sides and is focused on the historical unity of the RUS people while they are clashing in war. The instruments, lead, and backing vocals are in consummate balance and harmony, with the depth of lyrics delightfully complemented by the dexterous execution of the music itself.
Surely, you would wish for nothing more! Listen to this song as you watch its scene-stealing music video and let it inspire, uplift, and empower you appropriately!

DelvinThe RoomsLiving, a vibrant community of passionate worship leaders and musicians from over 40 churches, is setting a new standard for worship. This collective is dedicated to breaking the boundaries of traditional church walls, bringing worship to unconventional spaces like coffee shops, barbershops, gyms, and even out on the streets. Their mission is simple yet profound: to create an accessible and authentic worship experience that meets people right where they are.
Their debut single, “Light It Up”, serves as a beacon of their mission—an electrifying call to action that encapsulates their heart for worship and their desire to ignite a transformative connection between people and God. Released under Kingdom Revival Records, the song pulls listeners into an atmosphere of raw emotion, spiritual depth, and an unrelenting hunger for God’s presence from the first note.
Produced by Grammy-winning Samuel ASH and featuring a collaboration with Grammy-nominated Andy Alemany, “Light It Up” carries a sonic depth and professional polish that heightens the already powerful message. The RoomsLiving Writing Room—comprised of Joivan Jiménez, Eric Burkowske, Danielle Woods, Jacob Brown, and Jonathan Vickers—spent two years shaping this song into a soul-stirring anthem of worship.
Inspired by Matthew 21:12, the song echoes themes of surrender, seeking God with authenticity, and breaking free from fear and shame. The chorus, “We’re crying out, we’re wide open / We need your power that saves,” is both a personal prayer and a collective plea for God’s transformative power—a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone who has longed for an intimate encounter with the divine.
Ramona Lewis-Johnson and Jonathan Vickers deliver a stunning vocal performance that magnifies the song’s emotional intensity. Their voices rise passionately as the song builds into a memorable hook that echoes long after the track ends. The repeated line, “Light it up, let your fire fall,” becomes a communal proclamation that invites listeners to lift their voices in unity, making it easy to envision “Light It Up” as a centerpiece of live worship gatherings.
One of the standout moments in “Light It Up” comes during the bridge, where the lyrics take on a bold declaration: “No more watered-down religion / We want the real thing.” This unapologetic cry cuts through superficiality, calling for genuine worship that transcends empty rituals. The song doesn’t just stop at being a powerful anthem; it’s a rallying cry for a worship revolution, sparking a fire in the hearts of listeners to seek God with authenticity and abandon.
Light It Up is an invitation. It calls listeners to bring their whole selves—without pretense or fear—and to pursue a real encounter with God. The RoomsLiving has succeeded in creating a worship experience that is both accessible and transformative, leaving a lasting impact on anyone who listens.
