MoMo Friday Special: Music Meets Technology
You migh have heard that Tartu Music Week will have a different flavor this year. This time the whole festival is designed around our local tech-scene. There will be free pop-up concerts at startups and a special MobileMonday: "Music Meets Technology" event to finish the day!
So this Friday, the 27th we'll meet at Garage48 HUB Tartu - Raekoja plats 16 at 18:00. We'll start the event as usual, have a more party-like feeling to the whole thing - it's FRIDAY afterall! and will go later to Genialistide Klubi.
This will be a different MobileMonday - different day, different feeling, a very different topic bringing together both important scenes in Tartu - the Music and Tech.
Couple of highlights to raise your appetite to meet extraordinary people from Music scene:

He is a partner at the Helsinki based record label Cocoa Music that has been gaining attention through their releases and high-end music videos for artists such as Noah Kin, Ronya, Gracias, Biniyam and Femme En Fourrure.
Mäkelä’s background is in the IT sector, where his first company in the mid-90’s was one of Finland’s first internet service providers. This lead him working in various new media companies through the early 2000’s.
