Mak Music!
Create...
Learn...
Play!
These workshops, delivered in different locations around Shetland throughout 2024, provided an opportunity for young people to create music together, and to learn about music technology and how it is used to record and produce music.
WHAT WE DID
The workshops explored the musical interests of the group to learn while creating, incorporating instruments and technology in the form of drum machines, keyboards, synthesisers and computer based software.
Sessions took place in a fun, relaxed creative environment and participants learned new skills and musical parts, recorded vocals and instruments, programmed beats and more.
