Since its beginning in a defunct warehouse in Berlin 1998 the Red Bull
Music Academy has created a space where those who know
meet with those who really want to know more about it.
A platform where international music lovers, beat cognoscenti and business headz share their views, battle over differences and come together under all sorts of grooves.
Over the last 5 years, the Aacademy has hosted more than 300 workshop sessions.
The new website contains extensive excerpts
from the latest London edition accompanied with videos,
so you can see for yourself what goes down at the Academy.
So, whatever your interest,
occupation or driving force you can tap into these knowledge pools as a
useful resource and, hopefully, a source of inspiration.
Re bull also extended their forum for you to share your opinions,
exchange knowledge with other Academy headz,
or pick up some tips and tricks from those in the know.
