Musikerinnen und Musiker unterschiedlichsten Backrounds sind eingeladen, am internationalen Austauschprogramm MAKING TRACKS teilzunehmen. Obwohl es keinerlei Einschränkungen hinsichtlich des Genres gibt, richtet sich das Programm vor allem an Musikerinnen und Musiker mit Interesse an und Verbindung zu verschiedenen Kulturtraditionen, wie auch an in Umweltthemen engagierte Künstlerinnen und Künstler aus den Bereichen Soundscape Field Recordings und Sound Art.
Making Tracks is a groundbreaking international music exchange programme, based around an annual UK residency and tour. The project brings together exceptional emerging artists from the UK and around the world to showcase diverse music, initiate new collaborations and explore strategies for music-based environmental engagement. Having carried out a successful digital edition in 2020, this year Making Tracks hopes to return to creating and sharing music in person. The Making Tracks 2021 residency will take place on the West Coast of Scotland for two weeks in October, followed by a two-week UK tour of ten leading venues. Eight outstanding artists from the UK and Europe will be selected to take part.

Making Tracks is mainly interested in music with direct or implicit connections to cultural traditions and heritage, as well as environmentally-engaged artists working with soundscape field recordings or sound art. Given the lingering risk of disruption from Covid-19, artists based outside the UK will be prioritised who – in an absolute worst case scenario – would be suited and open to taking part in Making Tracks virtually, if required. Making Tracks is particularly interested in adventurous and collaboratively-minded music professionals who double up as community organisers, environmentalists, ethnomusicologists, writers, storytellers and more.
