Bali, Indonesia — 6 - 12 February 2023

What is Pitcch?

Pitcch is a seven day music production camp in beautiful Bali that will take your music to the next level. For producers, by producers.

We have built an exclusive destination, complete with all-inclusive accommodation, seminars and production time, where a small group of driven producers can get personal tutoring from industry experts.

We’re happy to have invited 3 legends of the music production world: Thys (Noisia)IMANU and SeamlessR. They will hold workshops, presentations, talks about their career progression and share invaluable tips and advice on how to succeed in the music world.

We believe that by getting away from your regular routine, fully focussing on your music and surrounding yourself by amazing mentors and like minded producers you will accelerate your growth and kickstart your career as an artist.

So what are you waiting for?

The mentors

Thys (Noisia)

Ableton, CubaseDrum & bass

Thys (Thijs de Vlieger, 1982) is a composer, performing musician, and producer from Groningen, The Netherlands. He has initiated and composed music for interdisciplinary performances and written for various ensembles of musicians.

Besides his solo work, De Vlieger is a member of the critically acclaimed electronic music production trio Noisia, with whom he also scored for major game titles.

I have lived and breathed music for over 20 years now. I love to share what I've learned along the way. I'm really looking forward to go in depth about my music, my experiences, and interact with the new generations of musicians.

IMANU

FL StudioDrum and bass

Established late 2019, the IMANU project follows an already impressive chapter in drum & bass. Breaking through at the age of just 16 with a highly distinctive and technical brutalist style, he made a remarkable impression in a very short space of time. However, this was only a hint at what was to come.

Now in his early 20s, IMANU has already been responsible for releases on significant labels such as DeadbeatsUKFVISION.  He’s remixed the likes of Apashe, TOKiMONSTA and What So Not & Skrillex and already collaborated with fellow kindred, unclassifiable spirits like Noisia, DROELOE, Zonderling, KUČKA, Pham and josh pan.

Music is my favourite thing in the world, and I can't wait to show, teach and tell you all about it in paradise!

SeamlessR

FL StudioDnb / Dubstep

SeamlessR (the 'R' is silent) is an audio engineer & music educator and Youtuber.

His channel is home to the How To Bass series deconstructing the music scene’s most advanced sounds. Having been doing this since 2004 he is an expert in sound design and advanced synthesis techniques.

Hi, I'm SeamlessR (the 'R' is silent), and I'm just one of many sources of amazing knowledge that awaits during the week of Pitcch in Bali!

Who are we?

We are Mike Vercoelen and Vince Smolders, we met in 2017 in Bali where we organised weekly music production meetups.

Mike is a web developer and music producer from The Netherlands and has been traveling and working online for the last few years, he also created the online music production tutorial platform Stereogate.

Vince loves working on innovative ideas, marketing and organising events. In his free time, he's usually producing or playing music, out surfing or cooking delicious food.

By organising the meetups in Bali we realised how powerful it is when experienced music producers get together and learn from each other.

We wanted to push that idea to the next level and therefore created Pitcch.
