Learn how to create your own music by using Ableton (software), recording with different methods of sound creation and techniques. Starting from scratch to the final arrangement discussing ideas together. During the workshop we will see how to reuse and give birth to the traditional/folkloric rhythms of WANA region, and merge with contemporary or electronic music regardless of the genre in which you want. In addition to one 3-hour practical workshop, Cheb Runner will be supporting the selected artists during two one-on-one studio sessions. Our (A)WAKE studio offers us a responsible, respectful, and communal environment to listen together, and learn and practice with each other.
