The Beat Challenge | ILBC x EMOM

The Beat Challenge will be a unique live event showcasing the skills and excitement of live electronic performance. Participants will compete in two rounds (set challenge, and freestyle). 

A panel of international judges will feedback on the performers' acts, with the audience also weighing in to decide the evening's UK Beat Champion.

There will be prizes (including NI Komplete 13, Midivolve license, + more TBA), and the winner of the evening will also be invited to compete remotely in the international round (taking place at the Future Music Forum in Barcelona, September).

Additionally, performer showcases will be featured including Matt Black, Freear (Slamboree), Gramski, ill-esha and several members of the EMOM (Electronic Music Open Mic) Community.

ILBC is a unique hybrid platform cofounded by artists & technologists Matt Black (Ninja Tune/Coldcut) and ill-esha, supporting and growing a community for inclusive & diverse collaboration through music technology. Our vision is to build a global community of music creators that overlaps genres, generations and realities.

Tickets - £8 advance.
