Online Sessions

It’s safe to say we have dearly missed our CDR Sessions; we miss learning from our fantastic guests, we miss catching up with the CDR community, we miss making connections with CDR first-timers and we miss listening to the brilliant music shared at each and every session.

While it is looking increasingly unlikely that we will be able to meet up as a community in-person anytime soon, we’ve been working hard to try to bring as many of the elements that make a CDR Session so special into an online space. We think we are now able to offer that, and are very excited to announce an outstanding lineup of artists to deliver a series of online Sessions over the coming months.

We will be hosting live conversations monthly with a collection of fantastic musicians, followed by an Open CDR session filled with work-in-progress tracks from the CDR community.

We kick off the new series on Thursday 25th of June live in conversation with DJ, producer and label boss, Desert Sound Colony; where we’ll breakdown a recent release, setting up a label and the development of his tutorial ecosystem. Cooly G, Mr Mitch and Nightwave join us in the following months for more retrospection and learning.

Sessions will be hosted live on our Facebook page and Youtube. We want the element of community connection felt at our regular CDR Sessions to be a big part of these online sessions too, so we encourage you all to get involved in the chat. We hope you’ll also meet some like-minded musicians and music fans and we will be selecting questions from the chat to pose to our guest.

The conversation will be followed by an Open CDR Session filled with work-in-progress tracks from the CDR community, streamed across our channels also. Click here to submit your track to be played on our livestream.
