Using the provided sample material and with the equipment of their choice, participants have a few hours to make a beat and exchange with their peers.

HOW IT WORKS:

2. We will provide you with the sample material from our guest on site via digital download or USB key, depending on the participant's preference.
3. Take your place and make music!
4. Once the time is up, you'll have the opportunity to showcase your track in front of the audience. This portion will be broadcast live on AAJA Radio.
5. All the tracks will be uploaded as a playlist on the Loop Sessions SoundCloud a few days later.
