Dubspot, an esteemed name in music education, is traveling to South By Southwest (SXSW) in Austin, Texas again this year, bringing workshops, demonstrations, parties, and gatherings of elite musicians and teachers. In the spirit of their new worldwide learning platform, Dubspot Online, and imminent expansion to Austin, faculty involved this year hail from both coasts, overseas, and Austin itself, all joining together around this revolutionary festival and educational concept.
SXSW MUSIC & MEDIA CONFERENCE
From March 16 – 19, Dubspot will return for their 2nd year at the Gear Alley Expo of the SXSW Music and Media Conference, hosting mini-demos, sample private tutoring lessons, Dubspot Online information sessions, and public samplings of the school’s renowned experience. Two special workshops sessions are also scheduled for the Gear Alley Garage performance area:
Thursday, March 17 @ 1:00pm
DUBSPOT AUSTIN: Ableton Live Session w/ Ocote Soul Sounds' Martín Perna & Friends
"Folktronic Funklore" is a word that producer, multi-instrumentalist, and Austin resident Martin Perna (Dubspot, Antibalas, Ocote Soul Sounds) uses to describe his music, and no piece of musical software helps achieve this aesthetic more than Ableton Live. This workshop features technical explanations & live musical collaborations between Martín, fellow members of Ocote, Thavius Beck, Pat Cupo, and Ancient Astronauts
Saturday, March 19 @ 1:00pm
DUBSPOT ONLINE: DJ Sets from Thavius Beck, Matt Shadetek, and Ancient Astronauts
In the post vinyl era, DJing has entered a new renaissance with almost endless live performance options. A selection of Dubspot Online’s diverse faculty group - Thavius Beck (Los Angeles), Matt Shadetek (Brooklyn), and Ancient Astronauts (Germany) - will demonstrate their preferred applications of this new technology.
