Following the success of the first round of EXP__, together with BULK and dublab, we proudly launch the second edition of our experimental music exchange and competition from May to October 2021, this time inviting artists from Berlin, Detroit, and Los Angeles to network and showcase their experimental talents in all music genres and music videos as well, full partnership info on the EXP_2 Press Release.
EXP__ strives to offer a positive break and to connect talents of all means, from pro studios to the DIY scene. We look to foster artistic AV experimentations thanks to active group moderation, matchmaking, micro-grants, and workshops. Join the EXP_group to discover new music and new talents, share your pieces, and maybe meet your future collaborators… and listen to the EXP_mixtape on dublab archive.
