Taking place across the weekend of 19-20 September at Red Bull Studios in London, the first day of its kind will bring together musicians, music managers and coders to try and come up with a new musical instrument.

Six teams will be given the chance to work on a new musical device - artists will have the chance to test the new creations as well as jam with each other over the 32 hours. The two days will culminate in a unique performance.

Sam Potts and Remi Harris, co-founders of YGN said: ‘Tech is the new frontier of the music industry, and with Buzz Jam we connect a new generation of managers, emerging artists and coders to collaborate on something truly special.

‘Mashing code and music together to create one unique performance and a profound experience for participants and our partners.’

YGN is looking for music managers and artists to take part - visit the Buzz Jam website to find out more and how to get involved.
