OPEN CALL — PERFORMING

Before you apply

We’re curating performance work that holds a ritual frame — not just a set. Show us the sound, the intention, and how you carry a room.

If your work has narrative, risk, and control — this call is for you.

What we’re looking for

Live, DJ, and AV sets rooted in Latin futurism, mutant cumbia, and experimental bass — with bold narrative or ritual frames.

What we offer

Performance slots within Ritual Experiences and labs. Travel support depends on city and budget; we confirm transparently per case.

Requirements

Links to past sets or performances, tech rider, and availability across cities we operate in or can travel to.

Submit once through the shared application form. We route it to the right call internally.

Timeline

  1. Submission received
  2. Review & shortlisting
  3. Response from Kumbionik

Exact dates vary by city. We update applicants as soon as review cycles open.

Good fit if

  • Your set is designed (arc, tension, release) — not random track selection.
  • You can perform inside constraints: time, system, shared lineups, and venue realities.
  • You’re rooted in a lineage (Latin, diaspora, street, experimental) and you can explain it without branding fluff.

Not for

  • Copy-paste club sets with no frame, no intention, and no listening.
  • People looking for a quick booking without contributing to the platform’s ecosystem.

If you’re ready, apply

We review submissions with care and follow up with timelines when a fit emerges. If you’re not selected, stay close — the platform evolves chapter by chapter.
