The Black Artist Database and Ableton have teamed up on a series of online music production masterclasses (supported by Ableton), open to racially and ethnically Black people.
The classes will be interactive online sessions, with the first four taught by Loraine James, Russell E. L. Butler, KMRU and rRoxymore via Zoom. The topics will include a general introduction to live, field recording as a compositional tool, bus processing pre masters and more.
Each masterclass will run for 60 – 90 minutes, including a time allowance for questions from the audience.
Each class has space allocated for 300 free attendees, and no prior music production experience is required to attend. All from the Black global diaspora are encouraged to register.
