303. Robert Kuijpers On “Guerrilla Audio” For Festivals
Wednesday, 3 September, 2025
In Episode 303, Sean and Andy are joined by Robert Kuijpers, coming to us straight from the Netherlands to share stories and tips from his extensive experience in the “guerrilla audio” world of fast-moving music festivals.Robert has been immersed in the live music industry since age 10, starting playing guitar and working in a guitar local shop where he developed a passion for electronics and signal flow. Over the years, he played in various bands while honing his technical skills to make himself sound better, which led naturally into live sound work.A chance encounter with the band Flairck inspired a career shift into professional audio, eventually leading to a co-ownership role at MPS Audio, supporting international music theater tours. Since COVID and Brexit, Robert has been freelancing, specializing in troubleshooting, FOH/MON mixing, and complex corporate productions.Episode Links:Robert Kuijpers On InstagramMotherclass #2: Audio Monitoring – Engineer Insights With Paddi KrauseSprudge’s Map to Good Amsterdam CoffeeEpisode 303 TranscriptConnect with the community on the Signal To Noise Facebook Group and Discord Server.
