  • Supernatant UK Pilot Scheme Complete // Supernatant Panel Discussion in Philadelphia PA this weekend

    Following our extremely well-received Supernatant UK pilot scheme in early 2013, we wanted to say thanks for your support, attendance and feedback! We’re working hard to expand our programme and scale up the events, and strengthen the community framework that brings together creatives working in different fields and locations. A fresh wave of Supernatant happenings are in the planning stages with sessions around the UK and Europe pencilled in. Stay tuned for further updates!

    In the meantime, next up is a Supernatant “Music In The Internet Age” panel discussion chaired by Wassim Alsindi and joined by Gerd Janson, Justin Gibbon, John Schenk and Thomas Schreiber. It’s free to attend on Saturday 4th May from 8pm at The Boom Room in Philadelphia PA (USA). Following the panel will be a very intimate Rizumu party. Do come if you can!
    Tickets are available here / Facebook event page.

These have been designed to enrich and enliven artistic, cultural and electronic music festivals, outreach events, universities and beyond.

It is being provided for young Danish musicians from a variety of backgrounds including jazz and composition as well as electronic.
