Music Production
What's that?
Students will explore various different digital audio workstations such as Audacity, Logic Pro and Adobe Audition, learning how to produce beats, instrumentals and melodies.

The theory side of things touches on the different bpm (beats per minute) for each genres, such as writing build-ups.

Inspire from home
This is our evening/weekend workshop where we bring the studio to you in the comfort of your own home! This course will be beneficial to students who would love to learn singing, songwriting and recording and who might not yet have the confidence to do it in a public setting.
This programme is designed to help give a huge confidence boost and excel levels of creativity and productivity, whilst also helping to coach and develop talents and skills. By the end of the course, students will have a full project of work in the form of an EP, album or mixtape, all from the comfort of their own home.
This is suitable for anyone 11+, we can cater for all students and will undergo prep work designed specifically for each student.
