Music Hack Day - Berlin

The first ever Music Hack Day took place in London at The Guardian on 11/12 July 2009 and it brought together 200 participants and 10 companies, including SoundCloud, Last.fm, RjDj and Songkick to explore and create the next generation of music applications.

On that weekend of 11/12 July nearly 200 eager participants, made up of web developers, hackers and invited journalists will took part in the first ever Music Hack Day. Attendees came from the UK and across Europe, representing a who’s who in music tech and showcasing the cutting edge of digital music. It was a full weekend of hacking but also a gathering of all of the folks that are creating the next generation of music apps.

Now its time, on the weekend of the 18-20th of September, for with Music Hack Day to arrive in Berlin.

The main goal of the event is for participants to rapidly prototype and build new projects, working through the night to complete and present them the following day. They have only this weekend to conceptualize, build, & present their projects. Hardware meets Software meets Online, all connected via music.

This event is about doing & not about just talking. Sessions will be very limited and after that its all about building and realising real products.

We will be running a Hack Day independent from, but working with the companies at the forefront of this movement. We hope you'll be able to join us....
