WAY UP: HOUSE OF TALENTS is a complementing podcast to Yamaha’s emerging talent three-part documentary. Host Parisa Tarjomani talks to some of the artists who were invited to an exclusive song writing experience this summer in Spain, where Yamaha brought together upcoming artists from across Europe to a villa in Barcelona, filled with Instruments and a home studio, providing a perfect environment to create music and collaborate. The artists, who hadn’t met before, formed teams of two,  and within three days, came up with lyrics, composed a melody, recorded the track and on the final day, each team performed their song live in an intimate concert.
