Dom McLennon’s journey to becoming a musician and producer started out in the same way a lot of other creative’s journeys do: letting passion and curiosity drive his exploration. What started out as creating beats with his younger cousin just for fun turned into a spot in the hugely influential and successful hip hop collective, Brockhampton. Today, Dom’s music has gained him hundreds of millions of plays and over 200K followers across social media.
With years of experience as a professional producer, Dom is looking forward to sharing how you can add depth and variety to your tracks through sampling. Created for beginner music producers in mind, this class will give you all of the tools you need to time stretch, chop, and rearrange your sample for a truly memorable final sound.
With Dom as your teacher, you’ll:
- Learn what a sample is and how to use it
- Align a sample to your track using time stretching and pitch manipulation
- Cut up and arrange your sample using patterns like “cut and repeat”
- Finish your piece and export it to share it with the world
Plus, you’ll get access to downloadable tracks from a collective of local musicians, which you can use to sample in your own song.
Whether you’re producing your first-ever song or looking to compose a song with the help of a pro, you’ll leave this class with a fully finished track and the skills you’ll need to take your music production career to the next level.
You don’t need any musical experience to take Dom’s class. All you’ll need is a computer and a DAW as well as an audio interface and mini controller if you’d like to push your sound even further. If you already have some of these tools, you can follow along with Dom. If not, you can use this class to decide which digital music production equipment and accessories you might want to use as you refine your sound.
