About REC VietNam:
REC Viet Nam grows from REC Room – A music management and event production team based in Hanoi. REC ROOM was formed in 2014 as a DIY audio recording studio, but has since developed into a community-driven music production team, with particular focus on; live music events, contemporary musical subcultures, management, tour production, and audio/video production for artists based in Vietnam.
Thanks to the active spirit and dedication by both a thriving local music scene, international music pioneers and performers, as well as the support over the years from various art communities, audiences, local businesses, and organisers, REC ROOM has evolved into a multi-functional national music hub. A hub that features a growing number of associated musicians and institutional connections across a young, dynamic underground music scene of Hanoi. REC ROOM focuses strongly on encouraging young musicians and musical subcultures to take their art seriously. A core philosophy of REC ROOM is to support the desire for musicians to create and develop their own original music and artistic expression in an attempt to move away from a general music scene at times dominated by cover bands and DJs.
Over the last 8 years, REC ROOM has recorded and produced for numerous artists based in Vietnam. REC ROOM has hosted live music shows with both local and international bands as a venue.
REC ROOM has been supplying sound equipment and audio/stage management for multiple events and festivals in Vietnam since 2015. Since 2018, this has progressed into also organising independent musical tours and smaller scale festivals. (see portfolio for more details).
Recently, year 2022 – REC Room has changed its name to “REC Vietnam”. REC Vietnam is continuing to serve as an open community concept that aims to connect, develop, and inspire the young live music art scene in Viet Nam.
26/05/2018, REC Room began their tour “REC Vietnam Road Tour 2018” – an Original live music tour by bus with young artists and underground music traveling the country.
The project aimed to gain the awareness of the Vietnamese young generation about a rapidly expanding live music scene across country. 02/07/2018, the tour ended with a live music show at HUB Café.
The unique part of REC Tour 2018 was not only “the first live music bus tour in Vietnam”, but also “the dynamic music flow” in it. 20 artists and music bands brought diversified elements from music genres such as Rock, Funk to Hip hop, Rap … to their audiences.
Every single artist has their own performance style, which they exchange and share with their audiences with an aim to erase the boundaries between the artist and audience. Beside the artist group comimg from REC Room, Hanoi, the REC Tour 2018 contained many other artists from different cities such as street dancers, graffiti artists. All of this mix created a very “Unique and Attrative” vibe.
After the success of REC Tour 2018, REC Vietnam now returns with another Road Trip. This time with more artists, more unique design, and on a way bigger and insane scale.
REC TOUR 2022 – A TOUR BY BUS WITH 5 PARTS ALL AROUND CENTRAL VIETNAM in the whole month of July 2022.
“REC TOUR is back after 4 years” – 17 locations, 60+ artists, 40+ venue
For this July the team at REC have curated a full month of original live music shows at unique locations in Central Vietnam with some of the finest performers from across the country. A first time in live music history of Vietnam a tour of such scale is attempted.
31 days – 1800 kilometers on the road – 17 locations – over 60 musicians – more than 40 venues – incredible mountains and highlands – beautiful seaside and beaches – dynamic city takeovers – 1 unforgettable summer adventure!
After two years of covid-19 restrictions on travels and live art performances, REC TOUR 2022 has been created as an ambitious attempt to showcase and re-establish the live music scene in Vietnam by touring the country, connecting the live music scenes, and establish a national network of cooperation for a stronger and steadier future of the live music scene.
REC TOUR aims to bring together the nationwide communities of live music artists, cultural organisations, educational institutions, venues, organisers, and local businesses who will welcome and support us throughout the tour.
REC TOUR is committed to supporting independent artists and businesses, seeks to build harmonious cultural exchange, and to showcase artforms that are outside the mainstream.
REC TOUR aims to contribute to the growth and raise the standard of the live music scene in Vietnam with a professional approach and highly qualified people in technical positions (organisers, music producers, sound engineers, musicians).
