What an amazing opportunity 🪩🎧😎

We’re looking for young people to get involved in our project about the first legal, all-night rave in the country: Quadrant Park in Bootle.

Each session is open to all aged between 16 - 24. You’ll be working with artist , DJ and founder of female and non-binary DJ collective .

🪩Production workshop - Saturday 3rd August, 11:00-13:00
Melissa will teach us how to sample, using some of the biggest tunes from Quad and voice samples from our interviews to create new tracks

🪩DJ workshop - Tuesday 6th August, 18:00-20:00
Melissa will teach a small group the basics of mixing and beat matching. We’ll have a few people per deck and we’ll use some of the original equipment from the Quad era as well as contemporary software to manipulate the sound
