We are happy to have them on the broadcast and excited to catch their upcoming events in the city.

MothLab is a production project developed into the electronic music and visual art sceneries, born to expand the different strengths of its co-founder and partners. A collective of Producers, Musicians, DJs, Video Editors, VJs, Sound Engineers and Web Designers decided to collaborate globally between Italy and New York, working on a unique purpose: the mixed-media arts process. For this reason it can be considered an Italian/American sound and visual growth plan.

MothLab means electronic music and event productions, live djsets, live concerts of electronica bands, real time videos, live vjing, compositing and mapping. MothLab is totally indipendent in art direction, audio/visual installations, graphic and visual design, music and video production, post production and promotion.

MothLab Recordings is the soul and the major goal of MothLab’s contemporary project. It is a digital label based primarily on electronica and dance music, spreading an interconnection between the European background of Techno sounds and new creations from the worldwide and American underground music industry.
