Our history
The European Hip Hop Exchange was born in 2018 with a first emerging project: the Paris <> Berlin - Hip Hop Exchange.
Gradually, our project was structured to offer exchanges on a larger scale and always centered on the discovery of Hip Hop culture across Europe, via the organization of international exchanges between enthusiasts.
​
The Covid-19 pandemic has led us to reconsider international trade. In 2020, the European Hip Hop Exchange is going digital with the European Hip Hop Lab.
Want to participate?
Are you between 18 and 30 years old? Are you French or German?
Are you a rapper, graffiti artist, beatmaker, beatboxer, dancer or do you touch the turntables? Are you passionate about audiovisual capture and video editing?

Music production
In cooperation or by drawing lots, one person brings the first stone (beatmaking or beatbox). She presents her production to the team.
On this basis, the second person in charge of production presents his production to the team.
Based on beatmaking+beatbox, turntablism adds its production
Based on beatmaking+turntablism+beatbox, rap is added to the track.
