Hey y'all--
wanted to let all you dj/producer types know the red
bull music academy is
recruiting applicants from the Detroit area for this
year's Academy in
November in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
for those of you who don't know, the RBMA is a FREE
(they cover travel and
lodging; you cover food and drink (minus the red
bull) and pocket money),
TWO-WEEK DJ school/symposium/mentor-lab put on every
year in a different city
with DJ/producers like yourselves from around the
world vibing . Mills, Claude
Young, and Acquaviva have all been lecturers, as
have Tom Middleton, BMG,
Godfather, King Britt, etc. This year's RBMA is in
Sao Paolo in November.
The site redbullmusicacademy.com breaks down what
it's all about; two to three
lectures on everything from music history (Mad
Professor, original Hacienda DJ
Dave Haslam, etc.) to technique and tech demos a
day; nights spent in studios
or soaking up the local scene, which this year is
Sao Paolo.
There's a free CD-rom floating around area record
stores (Record Time, etc) on
last year's Academy in London that you can pick up
Anyway, with 64 spaces for students from 30-some
countries, this year they're
trying to refine the application process.
So, if you're in the Detroit area, there's an
informational seminar (lunch
included) at Motor in Hamtramck July 1 from 11 am-3
pm to walk you through the
application process--basically filling it out and
talking about putting
together your 30-minute mix to submit. you have to
rsvp to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want to attend.
I was student at the Dublin RBMA two year ago so
I'll be talking people
through the application process July 1 at Motor,
plus we'll be doing a mock
seminar like the ones at the actual Academy with TP
himself, Terrance Parker,
talking about (and demonstrating) his own Detroit
story as trick-happy house
jock holding his own in techno city.
Like I said, if you're in Detroit and want to check
out what the RBMA's all
about (besides two free weeks in Brazil in
November), the workshop's 11AM-3PM
July 1 at Motor Hamtramck; rsvp to
