SXSW 2025 Panel Picker is now open for voting until 18 August and we’d would love to see you all in Texas next March!

Featuring our own Kali Bradford alongside Valeria Morell from Hyper Voltage, Nancy Perez Bermudez from ONErpm and Cesar Rosas from LPA Music, the panel explores and debates whether gentrification is fostering a creative renaissance in Mexico's music industry or is it slowly eroding its cultural roots? 🇲🇽

It was an absolute pleasure and a privilege to work with the British Embassy and Hyper Voltage for the ‘Beers and Britpop’ event in Mexico City. 🇲🇽

The event marked something truly special for us at Ridiculous; bridging cultures and forging connections through the universal language of music - something we are excited to continue building upon with new partnerships unfolding between the UK and Mexico.

Huge thanks to Xicpok, the British Embassy and Hyper Voltage for helping us facilitate this fantastic night, bringing together people in the creative industries. We are excited to explore many more innovative collaborations in the coming months!

2024 is starting with this exciting new partnership!

We’re thrilled to announce that we’re working with Serbia on international artist management outside of Mexico!

We first met Serbia two years ago and have collaborated with them several times, so it’s great to formally partner with them to oversee and drive their music careers outside of their home country 🤘

Watch this space…!
