Areyou a pre-emerging artist who has not recorded professionally?
Gain experience recording in-studio by partnering with NSCC students. Through this partnership, you'll receive a stereo 2-track demo that you can use for: booking shows, festivals and showcasing opportunities; and applying for grants.
The Nova Scotia Community College has a Music Production and Engineering program at its Ivany campus in Dartmouth, and with it a state-of-the-art modern recording studio. You'll get to spend time in-studio, experiencing the recording process from start to finish.
This is an NSCC student-driven project, where the students are honing their craft through practical experience. Multi-track files are not included in this offer. The project(s) must be completed by April 20, 2025.
