In 2013, the red bull music Academy returned to New York City for the first time since 2001. Many of the workshops and lectures were open to the public; for example, a panel discussion featuring veteran music producers Nile Rodhers, Tony Visconti, and Ken Scott was devoted to Devid Bowie's studio recordings. There were presentations and performances by industry legends such as ambient music pioneer Brian Eni and Giorgio Moroder, who was Donna Summer's producer.
