After living in NYC and Berlin for the past four and a half years, I returned to Buffalo, NY, only to find a commercial side of the electronic music scene. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
My plan - the Silent Exchange concept – is meant to focus on what is missing: the simplistic, low key, underground, and more accessible side of the music and art scene. Buffalo does do a great job in introducing people to the mainstream sound but Silent Exchange will open the door to a new experience – to an encounter with unconventional and unexplored surroundings where people can have direct access, and a unique connection with the music and art around them.
What Silent Exchange wants is for art to show its true face – inspiring, raw and pushing limits, simultaneously. Artists can freely manifest their sound in an artistic and unpretentious environment, where their techniques and interpretation aren’t bound to any commerical expectations. International, as well as up and coming talents, will bring their edge and unfiltered sound to Silent Exchange, and artists will have the opportunity to diplay their work in one day exhibitions - with the perpetual message in mind: „actions speak louder than words.“
It doesn’t matter where we are all from, which backgrounds, interests, worlds we belong to – this is a connection between the people and the music. Words are not needed for the exchange that takes place on a dancefloor. The smiles, the winks, the hugs, the kisses between strangers – all these create the vibe.
For our debut, Silent Exchange will be an open air event and in the worst case – although we don’t see rain as a bad thing at all! – there’s a massive warehouse available just 50 feet away from our planned outdoor space... Rain or Shine, this will be unforgettable!
I ask that all of you who have supported thus far, please invite those in the area that you think will enjoy this event to the fan & event page for Silent Exchange.
