The legacy lives on, as our Team witnessed at one of our favourite pro events and Balkan-wide industry hub: PIN. It’s a friendly convention by Password Productions that combines valuable exchange with cool vibes, fresh as ever in its 11th reincarnation. Many pro guests as well as performers we met hail from the MOST family, as do some of the organizers, making the event a happy reunion pregnant with potential. Their new projects, drive and relaxed professionalism could partly be  markers of MOST’s success – so we have been told, and so we like to think. 

Our workshop ‘Pitch perfect: How not to sound like a robot!’ resonated with young managers from Poland, Italy and Serbia, we had fun, passed on our tips and handed the floor over to participants to hone their pitching skills. PIN talking points included the synching market, state of industry affairs in the Balkans, management strategies best befitting artists, and yes, the legacy of MOST, both on scheduled and informal platforms. We reconnected with several artists we’ve had the pleasure to work with,  wonderful Zarina Prvasevda among them. The gigs were as inspiring as the talks, with a very fresh offer of Balkan sounds and global artists. Extra points for the super-social stage setting near the bathroom, but that’s just one of many PIN-specific extras we loved. 

PIN has become an unmissable event for the industry, and an important partner to us, while keeping it cool – we look forward to common projects or just taking turns in hosting one another.
