Mentale Belastung zeigt sich nicht nur im Kopf, sondern auch im Körper: flacher Atem, Anspannung, Blackout-Gefühle oder das permanente Gefühl, „funktionieren“ zu müssen. Der zweite Artist Circle der Reihe „Stimme im Kopf, Kraft im Körper: Mentale Resilienz für Musiker:innen“ widmet sich deshalb der Verbindung von mentaler Resilienz und körperlicher Regulation.

Mit praxisnahen Übungen zu Atmung, Körperwahrnehmung, Stimme und Präsenz erkunden die Teilnehmer:innen, wie sie in stressigen Situationen wieder in Kontakt mit sich selbst kommen können. Gemeinsam erforschen wir Wege, aus dem Funktionsmodus zurück in Kontakt mit dem eigenen Körper zu kommen und mehr Ruhe, Fokus und Präsenz für Bühne und Alltag zu entwickeln. Inspiriert von Ansätzen aus Selbstregulation und Kreativitätsarbeit entsteht ein Raum, der weniger auf Leistung und mehr auf Wahrnehmung, Präsenz und nachhaltige Stabilität fokussiert.

Der Circle versteht sich als ressourcenorientierte „Taschentherapie“ – als niedrigschwellige mentale Unterstützung und Überbrückung der Wartezeit auf einen Therapieplatz, ohne therapeutische Behandlung zu ersetzen.

The workshop is aimed at all musicians who are taking the next step towards a professional career and are currently working on a release or have recently released music. Together, we’ll explore how to strategically plan a release and what matters most. We’ll develop a sample step-by-step marketing plan and cover key topics such as securing funding and finding a label, as well as collaborating with booking and PR agencies.

The workshop will equip you with the necessary know-how for a successful and professional release of your music. You’ll gain a clear overview of the most important dos and don’ts in the music business and valuable insights into essential music marketing strategies.

The content is particularly aimed at musicians who have little experience with release strategies and music marketing so far. But even if you already have some basic knowledge, you can benefit from exciting new insights.

We are happy to present you our Summer Special Artist Meetup:

The Music Pool Berlin Prog-Rock Jam Session.

On the 20th August from 20h-24h you will be able to play and listen to other musicians at our neighbors noisy rooms in the House of Music. Noisy rooms will provide us a professional setting and good music gear.

There will be an opening band and a host through out the jam session, and it will be free of cost!

So if you like 7/4s as much as 4/4s, want to create a spacey vibe, or want to go all out and let your energy flow, this will be your jam!

It’s gonna be a great opportunity to make new connections, or to fully let go.

So mark it in your calendars and come prepared to have fun.

See you then!

The music industry is often presented as a collection of disconnected parts: labels, managers, publishers, distributors, booking agents and streaming platforms. But understanding how these pieces fit together is often more valuable than understanding any single role in isolation.

This interactive workshop is designed for independent artists, self-managing musicians, emerging managers and anyone looking to better understand the business side of music. Together we’ll explore how the modern music industry actually functions, how money and rights move through the system, and how different industry professionals support an artist’s career at different stages of development.

Through real-world examples, discussion and practical exercises, participants will learn how the recording industry, publishing, live performance, management, distribution, sync licensing and collection societies connect. We’ll also examine common industry myths, discuss whether artists really need every part of the traditional industry structure, and explore how independent artists can make informed decisions about building their team.

By the end of the session, participants will have a clearer understanding of how the music industry works as a whole, how revenue flows through the ecosystem, and how to navigate their own careers with greater confidence.
