Music Production with Beats Lab

Create unique original music in the styles you love using loops and samples with the relevant Carnival flavours from many cultures (Africa, Caribbean, Latin America and London). Work as a producer with professional musicians and other local young people to achieve a number of polished tracks, using Logic (professional music programming software).

You’ll be encouraged, as a team, to write as well as produce in whatever your preferred musical style is, including Trap, Drill, Hip Hop, Afrobeats, Grime and R&B and record your own vocal/lyrical ideas. Rappers and singers welcome with writing help provided. Not even the sky is your limit!

Be a part of group writing sessions, learn to use production techniques and FX such as autotune and filters, gain opportunities to try out midi instruments and be a part of our (online) carnival sharing events.

This exciting stream will be run by Beats Lab and is part of the Woodpecker Carnival Programme.
