The RUSH initiative (or Russian Music Export Initiative) is a non-profit, non-government organization whose goal is to promote young and promising Russian musicians on the international cultural scene.
WHAT IS RUSH?
The RUSH initiative (or Russian Music Export Initiative) is a non-profit, non-government organization whose goal is to promote young and promising Russian musicians on the international cultural scene.
Having combined the functions of the music export office with professional consulting services, RUSH has brought together domestic and international music experts to select the most promising Russian musical talents, and to promote and integrate them into the global community.
HOW RUSH OPERATES
The RUSH initiative is a non-profit organization that finances its work through crowdfunding and work with sponsors, art patrons, and cultural foundations. RUSH operates on democratic selection principles, where the initiative's experts compile a list of Russian musicians across all genres with the greatest export potential, with the final selection made by internal ballot.
To promote selected musicians, RUSH participates in key international music festivals and conferences, organizes showcases of Russian music abroad, lobbies on behalf of the Russian talents with international music-industry professionals and media, and runs promo campaigns on international markets.
RUSH was born in the bowels of the independent music scene in Russia, and is open to cooperation with the media and experienced specialists in music business who have knowledge of the international music scene and an interest in emerging artists and promoting new talent.
RUSH welcomes professionals who share the agency's main objective: to develop the Russian music scene and to promote Russian artists internationally.
