The Makers Series: Music Production

Have you ever wanted to produce your own music? Or make tracks for music artists?

Step inside the Marsh House studio and get hands-on with the world of music production in this exciting workshop led by London-based producer, songwriter and DJ, Conrad Kira.

Whether you’re into hip-hop, house, grime, R&B, pop, electronic music, or just love sound, this session will give you the chance to get behind the controls and learn how producers turn ideas into finished tracks.

Working alongside Conrad, you’ll explore the building blocks of music production; creating beats, layering sounds and effects, music sampling, building melodies and discovering how a track comes together from scratch. You’ll experiment with professional studio software and equipment, collaborate with other participants and even begin creating your own original music.

This is your chance to discover the creative process behind song writing and production. Collaborate with other young creatives in a real studio environment and get a feel for how global hit records are made.

No experience is needed; just bring your ears, your ideas and your love of music.

However his biggest influence came from the Grime and Garage pirate radio stations, these are what drove him to want to write and make music.
