Editors Note: This workshop took place on the 19th of March in collaboration with Budweiser Studios at the #HGStreet Festival.
Whether you're a seasoned musician or totally new to the world of music production, beat-making is an essential skill, especially in the modern music scene. A good beat can elevate your audio track to the next level. Making beats can seem intimidating at first but every great music producer first started with making a simple beat. To kickstart your journey as a beat producer, you will need the required knowledge about music production and the right tool kit. And who better to guide you on your journey than the renowned record producer, Karan Kanchan? Join him at the #HGStreet Festival as he conducts a workshop on the art of beat-making as part of a Budweiser Studios x #HGACADEMY initiative.
