Nestled in the heart of Malmo, Sweden, Fors AiR Retreat fosters creativity and innovation through its residency program – a collaborative effort between Fors, a distinguished Swedish VST synth company co-led by Felisha Ledesma, and Retreat Radio, an experimental music radio platform. This unique partnership brings together artists and sound explorers under one roof to develop their craft and push sonic boundaries.
Over the course of two weeks, Fors AiR Retreat welcomes individual musicians, sound artists, or pairs to its dedicated studio space and accommodations, providing them with access to state-of-the-art technical equipment and hands-on support. This immersive environment encourages the creation of new sound works and fosters artistic growth.
Among the talented artists who have benefited from this residency are drumloop and 7038634357, both of whom will be showcasing their newly developed projects at Norbergfestival 2025, thanks in part to the support provided by Fors. By nurturing such artistic pursuits, the residency not only contributes to the evolution of experimental music but also strengthens the bonds between Malmo's vibrant arts scene and Sweden's broader cultural landscape.
