SEKTION SOUND PRESENTS: CAPTAIN PASTEK
After smashing sets around Australia, French Captain Pastek has sent some serious ripples through the doof scene. Releasing on Zenon Records, Stereo Society and Guardian records, his unique style of psychedelic techno has captured our attention.
At Sektion Sound we love to host artists that approach music in a different way. Theo’s powerful industrial-yet-cinematic sound is so different from the Aussie bush techno that we’re used to.
After seeing him perform, we were just dying to find out how he does it.
Join us for an evening of learning and connection in a cozy Brunswick warehouse.
SEKTION SOUND PRESENTS: FINISHING A TRACK
Actually finishing a song is one of the biggest struggles for producers. How do you even know when a song is done? In this workshop, Scionaugh will describe a systematic and repeatable approach to finishing songs. From opening a fresh project to ending with a finished mix down, he will describe his workflow and how to identify and overcome the most common pitfalls that get in the way of reaching the finish line. The workshop will give you a step-by-step approach for creating a song from start to finish that allows you to maintain momentum. The outline of the lesson is as follows:
- How to start strong – Capture the soul of your song
- How to turn a loop into a song – Song structure/ progression
- How to maintain energy throughout the track – Transitions and sweeps
- How and when to add details – Ear candy and fills
- How to be confident in your mix – Referencing and mix down techniques
