With the compilation, every student has the chance to be officially released on a real record. It is available on all major music streaming services and at all of our Campuses. But not only the sound is produced by students, the artwork and the whole project management is a student's work, too.
With our „POP Projects“ students and graduates have the chance to work interdisciplinary on projects. They gain additional knowledge, receive feedback from experts and professional credits for their curriculum vitae.
The terms and conditions vary depending on the different projects. There is always a release or presentation of the final work at the end of each POP Project.
