My man Antonio Rodriguez hooked another promo video for the main event
tomorrow. It uses clips from the first event with the artists in the
studio. The instrumental used is the beat Medium Zach made for Carnage
at the event. Then it all ends with "Rebel Music", the track made that
day by Felipe Cuauhtli (Los Na) & X:144...the full joint!

Enjoy that and then come out to the event tomorrow at Fifth Element. If you aren't in the Twin Cities then peep it online:

It's a different challenge this time because the artists don't have
studios just their samplers/laptops, creativity and 3 hours to make it
work!!

The only way to apply for the Redbull Music Academy is come to the event and get an application/CD!
Just
in case, for those that don't know, Red Bull Music Academy is a pretty
cool venture. There's a lot to it but basically every year the academy
accepts applications from musicians of all types, varying ages, varying
degrees of success (unknown to established), all walks of life, and all
of the world. It's a lengthy process but they go thru it and pick the
top applicants for that years "academy". If accepted the artists all go
to special location together (they've gone to London, Barcelona,
etc...) and do various workshops, lectures, recording, performances,
etc... They have special guest like Chuck D, Dennis Coffey, etc... give
lecture and also work in the studio with the applicants. It's a pretty
amazing program, check out more info here: http://redbullmusicacademy.com/
