Ed Sheeran - 2step (feat. Antytila)
Antytila went viral earlier this year after they posted a video offering to perform via live link at a concert for Ukraine in Birmingham.

Topolya said that because of this, Sheeran's team then proposed a collaboration with the band. The video has since had over one million views on Youtube.
