MPG: Music Production Gym

What makes music tick? Sometimes it’s the song, sometimes it’s the sounds. Sometimes it’s the magic that occurs in between the two.

For over a year I’ve been hosting free weekly music theory gym sessions to the residents of our school. Now with the help of our amazing team of producer instructors, I’m adding a music production workout to every resident’s schedule. Twice a week we’ll meet up virtually, we’ll choose a song and pull back the curtain.

But instead of dissecting the harmony, the rhythm, the form, the lyric, we’ll be putting the production under the microscope, the instruments and arrangement choices, recording techniques, and discussing how effects and mixing decisions impact the way the song hits. Music theory gym and now music production gym. Free every week to Beat Kitchen residents.
