Concept
rx:tx's main mission is to promote cross-border and interdisciplinary research and to undertake projects not only in contemporary music, but also technology and visual arts. It is designed to enable access to production facilities and distribution networks for innovative musicians and sound artists from all over the world, but with a specific focus on the artists from the post-communist countries of Eastern Europe, whose lively production of new electronic beats, grooves, clicks, cracks and infosphere noise is as yet little known abroad. With the arrival of the new team, marked by the Sampler 2011 compilation, a slight shift in musical focus leads rx:tx towards hip-hop beats and contemporary bass music.
