Come in
Free entry, always. RSVP so we know how many chairs to put out. No badge, no list, no industry gatekeeping.
Where Berlin builds the future of music.
Free meetups in Kreuzberg since 2018. Founders, developers, artists and researchers show the tools they made, then everyone stays for the drinks.
An evening here
Five things happen, in this order.
Doors, 18:00
Watch four to seven builders
Local innovators show the tool they made and the problem it solved. No sales pitches, no pricing tiers, no roadmap slides.
Put your hands on it
Demo tables run all evening. Bring a laptop, a synth, a half-finished prototype and let the room break it.
Write on the wall
A sheet of paper and a pen. Looking for a co-founder, offering a skill, hunting beta testers. The room finds you.
Stay for the drinks
Two or three hours of actual conversation. This is the part people come back for, and it is on our partners.
Next up
Edition #25
Worth knowing
Nothing has been scheduled since 18 May. A group of 2,540 members showing zero upcoming events reads as dormant, to Meetup's ranking and to anyone arriving for the first time.
The archive
Twenty-seven editions, eight years.

Connect Beyond the Preset
Four presenters, the first demo tables, and an evening built around the human signal chain rather than the gear.
