New Sounds of Europe

Over New Sounds of Europe

New Sounds of Europe started off as a collaboration between Timo Millitz and Matteo Villa. Having both a great interest in making videos, they started working on a series of projects and most notably the shooting of a music video in December 2012. In the winter of 2014, they started talking about making live video sessions. One of their goals with the project was to combine traveling, meeting people, filming and discovering new music. All that by breaking (literal and figurative) borders. The idea came to mind as Timo joined the local department of Utrecht of the Dutch music platform 3voor12 in November 2013.

Step by step, they built up the foundations of a new project. The name New Sounds of Europe was created on 28 February 2014. In less than a year, they shot and edited more than 20 sessions in Utrecht, Liège, Brussels, Berlin, St. Vith and Leipzig. All those sessions include a wide range of musical styles from more up-tempo/popular songs to more abstract/progressive pieces shot in very diverse spaces.
