RBMA Bass Camp Seoul 2017 in Photos

The Red Bull Music Academy hosted a dazzling four-day musical takeover of the South Korean capital with its very first Bass Camp in Seoul. Starting on September 28th, 2017, 16 hand-picked participants from across the country were put through their paces by local and international musicians such as Korean singer-songwriter Mr. Changwan Kim, West Coast electro rap pioneer Egyptian Lover and Hyperdub’s Canadian singer/producer Jessy Lanza, as well as Austrian microKORG wizard and Academy alum Dorian Concept.

During the day, the participants attended lectures, workshops and studio sessions in the creative environment of Art Center Nabi, while in the evenings they brought the unique vibe of RBMA’s Bass Camps to the dancefloor of Seoul’s Itaewon district. Highlight performances came from Korean traditional music ambassadors Seoul Namsadangpae and their contemporary counterpart 360 Sounds as well as Japan’s veteran techno champion DJ Nobu, plus a fine cast of Academy alumni, including Dutch jazz alchemist Jameszoo, Polish wunderkind Chloe Martini, Seoul-based musical chameleon Akimbo, Korean bass experimentalist MIIIN and beat sorceress MISO.
