Music is a universal language of music to connect, communicate, educate everyone. Let’s not forget the appreciation we need to give to the artists, promoters, agents and fans that are growing music to a whole new level. That’s the beauty of a music week and for the first time ever, the budding and beautiful capital city of Kuala Lumpur will play host to Wired Music Week(WMW) – one-stop hub for music enthusiasts of various levels to learn, network, develop and advance, not only as individuals but as a community as well.
Wired Music Week is a cross-cultural initiative of five individuals passionate about the music industry and its growth. Malaysia-based founders John Beh and Michael Mah together launched RBRN IDEAS with the idea of hosting Wired Music Week as an educational platform to improve the current music industry in Asia by discovering and helping a younger generation of talent unravel the local and global music industry.
In order to spread the education of music to the masses, WMW partners with a range of international and regional record labels, artists and industry delegates to make up a three-day of concentrated schedule of events, parties, seminars, networking opportunities, workshops and even demo listening. This will indirectly aim to introduce and ease all participants into the weekender with a series of after parties to solidify relationships.
The line-up of consists of a wide range of event promoters, record label heads, venue representatives,artists, talent and industry delegates from local, regional and international communities spanning Germany, Australia, The Netherlands, the UK, Taiwan, Philippines, Japan, Sweden, Malaysia and Thailand.
