MENT brings together music, art, creativity and media technology, merging and debating them. It takes full advantage of its geo-strategic position, showing pride in its small, yet unique, vibrant and diverse local scene, and showcasing carefully selected high-profile international guests and new music talent “from the Balkans to the Baltic and beyond”.The Kino Šiška – Metelkova mesto – K4 axis, combining 8 stages, will host more than 40 artists, also selected from a pool of over 200 acts that responded to the open call for musicians.MENT is a music showcase festival and an extraordinary visual event in line with international music industry trends, and thus presents an excellent opportunity to learn more about the fields of distribution and digital technologies. The conference segment of the festival is expected to attract more than 200 music experts (agents, record label executives, promoters, organizers, managers and media representatives), and it is our privilege to announce panel participants from online music magazine Louder Than War, music agency Charmenko Agency and festivals Exit, Pohoda, Iceland Airwaves, Žedno uho and Waves Vienna/Bratislava.
You can look forward to a moMENT in early February in which Ljubljana will stop, listen and open its eyes wide, taking in a variety of combinations of musical and visual creativity. MENT promises to deliver visual excess, among which we can so far highlight Bitbanger Labs, who developed the Pixelstick lightpainting tool, which blew everyone’s mind when it was featured on Kickstarter in 2013. Ljubljana will also host Jono Brandel & Lullatone Studios, the inventors of the simple, yet unbelievably creative portable animation / sound kit – Patatap.
