Tyndale St Georges and LTHH Audio Recording Workshop 2007: Beat-Making 101

Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 2007-05-11 02:28.

In Beat-making 101, the Digital Literacy Program took 15 students through the basic steps of recording vocals on mini-disc recorders and making beats to match them. Students were introduced to fruity loops (a digital audio workstation), the fundamentals of collaborative media practice and hip-hop music production. The workshops entailed constructing back-beats, listening and performing sessions, and lessons on more advanced beat-making possibilities, all with the support of volunteers and facilitators from Literacy Through Hip-hop, the Digital Literacy Program and the Atwater Library. Big-up yourself!
