December is a time to reflect on what we have achieved, where we have been, what we have learnt and to appreciate those who have made everything possible. Even though it’s impossible, 2022 seems to have gone on longer than other years, and we sincerely thank those who have worked with us on the many and various projects and activities this year.

Arts & Parts mentors individual artists from many musical backgrounds and is fortunate to be able to work directly with artists across several territories and genres. Meeting online via the Australian Art Orchestra during the pandemic, Sia Ahmad stands out in the adventurous music landscape of Australia.

This post is a companion to Spotlight on SOUND OUT – Part 1 (published 25 April 2022), and contains information about the artists who participated in the inaugural edition of SOUND OUT.

Since 2019, Arts & Parts has been working with Punkt Festival – the Norwegian experimental ‘Festival of the Live Remix’.
