ARCHA+U:
Computer Music (workshop w/ badfocus & BoLs/sLoB)

ARCHA+U for schools workshop
'When I was young, I wanted to be like Skrillex.' BoLs/sLoB and badfocus show the basics of music production. How does a guy make a whole track in his room? What does it take? How to think creatively and technically about making music? This + other tips and tricks will be shared in this workshop.

The guides will be two talented music producers who, despite their young age, have achieved success on an international level. Both have been nominated for the Czeching Radio Wave export project. BoLs/sLoB also received a nomination for Discovery of the Year at the Vinyla Awards, while badfocus won the HEMI Music Awards for his work. 

The program is suitable for complete beginners, with no previous knowledge of music production and audio software. You don't need anything with you. 

Program length: 120 min.
