East Midlands

CDR East Midlands Project (2007-2009)

This was an Arts Council England two year project, which aimed to explore and nurture electronic-based producers and communities in Derby, Nottingham and Leicester. We put on workshops, seminars and CDR Sessions. University of Derby were a partner, and were very helpful with marketing and putting on the events. A highlight was the Creative Consortium seminar about digital distribution where we had a lecture from Danny Ryan, MD of Kudos Distribution as well as Michael Cassidy who runs ithinkmusic.com. We would love to do this again. There is an array of talent in the East Midlands the world doesn’t know about, so we want to help bring these talents to the fore.
