DJ’s and producers, send in your tunes to the selection panel for this years Red Bull Music Academy to be held in the fabulous city of Barcelona, Spain. The application phase for this years Red Bull Music Academy starts on 14 March and ends on the 6th May. More info below.
This year, we’re planting our stakes in one of the most beloved creative metropolises to ever exist. It’s where world-class clubs pop till dawn and the terms ‘fusion’ and ‘avant-garde’ are not buzz words but techniques to be applied to everything from deconstructed orchestras to art installations overflowing on street corners. The creators who flock there know they are blessed to live where they can dip their toes both in new projects and at the beach. Barcelona is a city to be celebrated.
How To
Anyone interested in joining this year’s Academy in Barcelona must follow a few simple steps. Prospective applicants should download the application form here
