Next Beats is Buma Rotterdam Beats' platform for new and emerging talent, offering a broad program featuring producers, song writers and other professionals from all around the globe who are eager to share their knowledge with the next generation. 

Last years program included a production workshop by Om'mas Keith (Sa-Ra Creative Partners), who  recently cooperated on the platinum album Watch The Throne by Kanye West and Jay-Z. Om'mas Keith has also produced for Frank Ocean, Jill Scott, John Legend, Erykah Badu and many others. Influential Dutch producer Kubus took delegates deep into his personal world of analogue and digital synthesizers during his workshop.

And British future soul revelation Szjerdene, who also performed during the evening, delivered a workshop on how to use your voice effectively in the studio and on stage. Check out the full 2011 program here
