GET SOME UK UK MUSIC, ART AND CULTURE

Another installment of On The Buttons in November showcases the talents of female rapper Baby Blue and a Q&A with the mighty Loefah. If you don’t know what this is about, here’s a little example of what goes down from the last event. Swindle is mind boggling with the speed in which he builds this beat, very impressive stuff!

DJs Kashmir Kid and Tanzanite will keep things rolling with their mix of experimental underground sounds while you grab a drink, network with other like minded musicians, and maybe challenge them to a game of ping pong!

They are also putting on free drinks and it free to attend, can’t beat that really, can you? Sign up to the Facebook event to make sure you get a place on the guest list. FACEBOOK ON THE BUTTONS

YO!

Everyone has had a go at production or thinks they have the skills to make beats and could always ‘do it better’, right? If you’re an up and coming producer, or beginner, and are trying to tighten up your skills then this website might be right up your street.

Goldilocks’ new event, On The Buttons, is ‘a Bi-Monthly music event, with Q+A sessions with recognized music producers and live performances from new musical talent’. They have a different producer at each event come down and do a workshop on how they make beats and Swindle is doing the next one. Their website is full of tutorials and videos with lots of useful information on beat making and I highly recommend it! Check it out…
