MUSIC CENTER KINARMONIK
THE CREATION POLE: A MONTHLY PROGRAM OF ACTIVITIES /
A REHEARSAL ROOM / THE SPRINGBOARD
The creation pole is the creative hub of Kinarmonik. Led by Réussidie Luntadila, a Kinarmonik musician, this pole is the beating heart of a monthly activities program that combines masterclasses, workshops and video screenings, offering musicians a space for reflection and experimentation.
The center provides a rehearsal space, musical instruments and a springboard with a small stage for live performances, allowing each artist to bring their projects to fruition.
At the heart of this space, the musical creation workshop led by Eric Malu-Malu stands out for its personalized approach, offering expert support for each artistic project.
Kinarmonik's creative hub is more than a workplace; it is a place of meeting and innovation, where each creation is supported and each artist is encouraged to explore and assert themselves in a stimulating environment.

CULTURAL ACTIVITIES
To complement the musical training, Kinarmonik offers a monthly and varied program of activities, completely free, designed to enrich the learning of young musicians. This program includes masterclasses, workshops, and video screenings, but also days dedicated to the expression of the guitar, rhythmic days for drummers, as well as jam sessions. Among these sessions, we find in particular the Kinagirl, specially dedicated to girls, and freestyle rap battles that encourage creativity and improvisation.
These free activities offer students a complete musical experience, allowing them to explore different aspects of their instrumental practice, while strengthening their technique and artistic expression in a dynamic and collaborative setting.
Twice a year, the center offers the "Spotlight on" cycle, a Congolese artist or group that has contributed to broadening the
THE JAMKIN
Since 2018, many musicians have come to play with the young people, but the special JamKin Jupiter&Okwess group from Kinshasa who play on the biggest stages in the world, they still talk about it!
A great moment of sharing where the young musicians from the Tychick center, Matthias (guitars) Jephté (drummer) and Leah (bass) defended themselves well, making their teachers Eric (guitar) and Toussaint (bass) proud.
BATTLE FREESTYLE RAP
In 2023, Kinarmonik is organizing the first freestyle rap battle. Urban music being underrepresented in the DRC, rappers have no stage to express themselves and lack visibility. The first one took place in February and around twenty young rappers came from all over Kinshasa.
MASTERCLASS & WORKSHOP
The workshops and masterclasses offered by Kinarmonik are distinguished by the diversity of the subjects covered, each focusing on a particular aspect of the vast musical field.
Whether it is composition, arrangement, production, or even career management, these sessions are designed to offer participants an opening onto the different facets of music.
Led by recognized professionals, these two activities allow to deepen specific skills while offering a global vision of the music sector. The objective is to provide musicians with a complete understanding of their art, and to prepare them to face the challenges of the industry with solid and varied knowledge.
