Verband für aktuelle Musik Hamburg e.V.

In the page's words:

In view of the fragmentation of contemporary music into more and more scenes and the political and economic situation, it was time for Hamburg's experimental music scene to join forces and network.

The aim is to represent and network the entire spectrum of the scene (from composed music to improvisation, electronics, avant-garde rock-punk djing and laptop hobbyists).

The aim is to make the various activities known beyond the scenes, to attract new audiences, to interest audiences from one scene in the other and to make these innovative music productions accessible to the Hamburg public on a larger scale (cross-scene event calendar with homepage).

The aim is to conduct a dialog with the authorities, build up infrastructures and network the members. The aim is to create publicity (press work, workshops, schools, musicology, development of mediation concepts).

The aim is to establish a center for contemporary music in Hamburg in order to put an end to the miserable space situation in Hamburg and to create performance opportunities.
