What we are looking for
Bom Shanka is looking for the next generation of emerging artists: producers with an individual voice, strong ideas, and the courage to create music that does not follow the obvious path.
This call is for artists who are already making strong, finished music and are ready to take the next step in their artistic development. The aim is to find people with a clear identity, real potential, and the depth to grow through mentorship.
We are open to music that moves between styles and refuses easy labels. We are not setting genre boundaries—we want to hear artists with their own world and their own voice.
What matters is the energy, intention, and originality of the music. We are looking for work with depth, tension, character, and a sense of purpose: music for the darker, more immersive side of the dancefloor.
We are not looking for soft, daytime, overly melodic, formulaic, or predictable music. Bring us something intelligent, psychedelic, forward-thinking, and unmistakably yours.
We are looking for artists with a real world of their own.
Bring us the music that does not fit neatly into a box—but belongs in the night.
