Judge has been heavily involved in a cross-genre collaboration project in the past year with over 18 International artists from the US, UK, Europe, and India to create his debut album ‘NASCENT’.
Highlights from the album include songs from the wonderful Sheema Mukerjee (Transglobal Underground), SHIN (of DCS), Shruti Jain (Mumbai) and Jazz Delorean from Tankus The Henge. It also includes remixes from the amazing Dr Meaker, DJ Swami, and DJ Drez.
Over the past few months they have begun releasing singles and remixes from the Album.

Collaboration has been sited as a key element helping modern artists to grow their fan base and develop their style. Factors need to be considered such as copyright, but collaboration projects can be extremely rewarding for all parties.
So come along to Bristol Beacon, the home of Bristol Music, gain some insights and share your own experiences.

Check out this months Guest Speaker subject from Charlie……..
TECHNOLOGY FOR MUSIC EVENTS OF THE FUTURE
Technology appears to have a pattern… Around every ten years, we see the next technological advances take hold and go mainstream.  Calculators, PC’s, the Internet, mobile phones, smartphones/tablets are such examples of these leaps.  As both music and technology enthusiasts, we at Ether Tickets believe that we’re at the beginning of a new cycle.  Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence and Crypto-currency/Tokens have had billions invested and continuing to grow.  It’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN these technologies become mainstream… What will the impact of these technologies be on music events? More importantly, what’s happening right now?  We’ll give you our thoughts…
See you on Wednesday 7th November from 12.00pm till 14.00pm.
Colston Hall, 3rd Floor Terrace Bar. Free refreshments and sandwiches.
