INTRODUCTION

EUROPE IS THE STAGE

When I think of ETEP I immediately think of Eurosonic Noorderslag and of Groningen. I think of wonderful lifelong memories and of many magical moments. I think of the oldest running EU music support program that is highly successful and worth being part of. I think of many wonderful friends and colleagues from all over Europe and beyond who gather every year in Groningen to enjoy the possibilities of discovering new European repertoire, to meet, to exchange, to learn, to talk, to listen, to party and to start the new year. Together.

For many of us, it will be the first year that does not start in a sunny or rainy Groningen. It feels really strange to be honest. I already feel a huge emptiness and my stomach will certainly miss the delicious midnight snacks, which we all know as Kipburger and Frieten at the Febo on the way between the Grand Theatre and Huize Maas. I will not even try to make these at home during the virtual Eurosonic panels, although I might reconsider.

To see, hear and feel so many talented artists every year from all over Europe makes me extremely happy and also very curious to discover. To go from club to club even when it’s freezing cold outside and to squeeze ourselves into the crowd, to get surprised and to find out if we are all watching the next Alma, Àsgeir, Franz Ferdinand or on stage. Who are the next headliners on our European festival stages that will provide our audiences unforgettable moments?

2020 has been very different and 2021 will most likely also not the same as we’re used to, but for sure one thing will never change and that is the remarkable talent that is waiting to be discovered and thanks to the ETEP Program we even have a support scheme that is still up and running and that not even Corona can take away from us.

So lets surprise yourself and keep on discovering new European artists that are the rising stars of the future music world. And yes the future is out there, even though it feels to believe that we can all return back to our beloved festivals, clubs and shows. The power of positive thinking is a huge gift, let us believe in it together for our industry and for the future generations.

Yours,

Fruzsina Szép (she/her) Managing & Festival Director SUPERBLOOM

ETEP INFOGRAPHIC ABOUT ETEP CLICK HERE TO LEARN ALL ABOUT ETEP ± HOW DOES ETEP WORK?

Each year the most relevant and promising European artists are selected to play at ESNS. The European Talent Exchange Programme (ETEP) was introduced to make the “exchange” of these European artists across Europe possible on a greater scale than ever before. An initiative of ESNS; ETEP facilitates the bookings of European acts on festivals outside of their home countries and generates extensive radio and media exposure for these artists in cooperation with the European Broadcasting Union and local media. This way, ETEP aims to give a boost to the international careers of European artists.

In short, ETEP requires festivals to select foreign artists from the line-up of ESNS, guaranteeing confirmed slots at their festival. In support, radio stations generate airplay for these acts and written media support the acts in the national press. This cooperation between festivals and media guarantees maximum exposure and offers a perfect opportunity for managers and agents to promote their artists outside of their home countries. Moreover, playing at one or more of the major ETEP festivals which attract thousands of music lovers, helps artists greatly to expose their music to an audience numbering in the millions. In order to strengthen the capacity of emerging artists to sustain an international career, ETEP also invests in educating emerging artists and their managers on how the international works.

The year 2020 was different than any other year, since we had to deal with a pandemic that brought the world to a standstill. Because of this, many ETEP festivals were cancelled or postponed. To still succeed in our mission, to give emerging acts as much exposure as possible we adjusted our strategy. Next to booking the ETEP artists, the festivals were allowed to promote them on their platforms if their festival could not take place. This resulted in 124 promotions for 74 acts from 21 countries by 74 festivals from 26 countries. WHY ETEP?

ETEP was implemented because of the great difficulties that European experiences in international promotion and distribution. Historically, Anglo- American repertoire has been the main focus of professional music distribution and promotion. Despite its great diversity and quality, European music distribution has lagged behind. Therefore, ETEP’s main goal is to stimulate cooperation on the cultural, business and media level between professionals in the music field. ETEP was primarily initiated in order to develop a solid network among the involved parties to promote, support, motivate and encourage the free flow of creative European music talent across the world. ETEP aims to build a strong alliance involving the most influential parties in European music, such as the European Broadcasting Union and European music media such as Musikwoche, DIY, and VIP. This provides a network of associates who are able to reach an audience of millions, thereby guaranteeing the continuing expansion of European music. It creates a unique cooperative working relationship between professionals in the European music business.

A. GENERAL OBJECTIVES

The main objective of the ETEP project is to facilitate the circulation of European music, artists and productions and have the music industry and media working together to promote acts and their repertoire.

THERE ARE FOUR SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES: • To have as many European acts programmed as possible at as many festivals as possible;

• To promote European acts not only on festivals but in parallel through extensive media coverage;

• To stimulate the music industry and media to work on the circulation European music repertoire;

• To boost the international careers of European artists. CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE ETEP RESULTS FROM 2003 - 2019 ON OUR WEBSITE ± B. RESULTS
