General description

Have you ever thought that sound is so much more than just the annoying noise in the city, or a song that you hear and sticks in your mind all day?

Have you ever been curious as to what you can do with sound, how you can create it, what purpose it could have..

Do you like music? Socializing? Partying?

..

..

This way please.. You are about to enter the world of Sound Engineering and Psychoacoustics.

You will learn to think beyond the sound. Creation, Understanding and Manipulation. Music, Sounds and Feeling.

Because it's so much more than just pressing the PLAY button..

It's all about what comes next ;)

Thessaloniki is a restless city full of young people living on the edge and with some of the best views you will see in Greece. We like to have fun doing whatever and so do you.

We will make you Feel The Sound.

LBG Thessaloniki AWAITS.. you.!
