May 1 - May 3
Bramall Music Building
May 1st – May 3rd 2025 BEAST FEaST 2025 will bring friends old and new – from both far flung parts of the world and close to home – together in Birmingham. Electroacoustic music in the twenty-first century is both a local and a global art form. It is at once capable of expressing the local knowledge and culture of the many geographical regions in which it has taken root, notably with the many important electronic music studios that were founded in Japan, Africa, India, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe; and of bringing together different cultures, genres, forms, and sounds, whether through practices of deliberate hybridisation and fusion, or via juxtaposition and contrast. For the 10th Anniversary of BEAST FEaST, our goal is to make a festival which gathers that diversity together in celebration! / Open Call For Works – Submission Deadline 15/09/2024 Full itineraryMay 1st – May 3rd 2025 BEAST FEaST 2025 will bring friends old and new – from both far flung parts of the world and close to home – together in Birmingham.
