Visually, OpenLab will continue to expand its library through partnerships with galleries, independent artists, designers and architects, ensuring that the platform not only be sonically spectacular but visually inspiring as well, pairing beautiful music with cutting edge art, photography and mixed media design.

Complimenting OpenLab’s multimedia approach is an in-person strategy that will see OpenLab launch a series of exclusive, invite-only events in secret locations In Ibiza this summer. Imitating the online experience, OpenLab events fuse live artists and DJs with visual art and installations.

Last but certainly not least, OpenLab has launched a professional live recording studio in Barcelona, with another to follow later this month in Ibiza’s stunning Hangar 8289. A third studio in Downtown LA will be live towards the end of the year. These studios will provide unique opportunities to artists, both upcoming and established, to create high quality audio and visual compositions. OpenLab’s ambitious content creation strategy will aid the platform to become a portal of choice for creative and culturally interested individuals from all over the globe.

The ambitious return of OpenLab is news the team hope that will bring a smile to the face of real lovers of independent music, art and culture. Managing Director, Quentin ‘TinTin’ Chambers (himself a prominent figure in dance music culture, having founded both the UK’s legendary ‘Energy’ raves in the late 80’s, and the pioneering online-radio station Groovetech.com in the late 90’s) said ‘We’re incredibly proud of what Robert created and to be taking his vision forward. In a world dominated by huge platforms offering only a tyranny of choice and creative mediocracy, there is honestly nothing quite like OpenLab out there. This has been demonstrated by the enormous support we have been receiving this last year from the community, and I ask all those who are creatively minded listening in, lean back and let us know what you think.’
