______ miniLab 2026 _________
_ a space for sound experiments _
_ concert series from June to October
___ miniLab is a project open to experimental and improvised music. After three years and fifteen editions, it has established itself as a space for musical experimentation. The project continues in August with its third edition of the year, miniLab 16.
Each event offers an unusual program that also focuses on women/FLINTA artists in music.
_Since June 2023 we are working on the sustainability of the independent scene creating more opportunities for the freie Szene Berlin providing a space for musical experimentation. In a collaborative atmosphere, we develop new professional connections and strengthen not only the scene itself, but also ourselves as artists.
___With a format of duo and solo sets, or a combination of both, and an improvisation with all participating musicians in the final act, each event features a unique line-up that expands Berlin's vibrant music scene and offers the audience new, contemporary, and avant-garde music.
Each concert will be a new discovery.
