This is an 8-week educational programme for sound producers during which you will discuss the structure of traditional music, its genres and regional features, and share experiences of combining authenticity with electronics.

How can Ukrainian tradition be brought into the electronic music environment and create a non-trivial sound at the intersection of genres? This question will be explored during the course. Participation is free.

CMYK implements the project in cooperation with the Goethe-Institut Ukraine. This is a project that combines Ukrainian traditional and electronic experimental music. CMYK creates raves, concerts, and collaborations at the intersection of various art forms, as well as an educational course and a label.
