Great music from the state of Bremen deserves to be heard! Releases are the first step to building an audience, getting attention, and moving forward. And because a vibrant independent scene needs exactly these kinds of opportunities, POP Office is now supporting you with just that! <\/p>

Our RELEASEfonds helps musicians from the state of Bremen release their music \u2013 whether it’s a single, EP, or album. Because we know: no release means no reach, no reach means no gigs, and no gigs means no further steps toward professionalization. <\/p>

The fund is aimed at newcomers and semi-professionals from the independent pop music scene in the state of Bremen. In other words, everyone who wants to push their project forward, is already working on their own music, and wants to take the next step \u2013 but doesn’t (yet) have the means to handle everything alone. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
