Sikwitit x Snow Tha Product + Help Us Improve Beat Camp


Happy Thanksgiving! 

Sikwitit

 

Beast of the Beats VIII is officially in the books, as Dallas' own Sikwitit travelled 1500 miles to NYC to take this year's crown...

 

Wish him luck, as next month iStandard and Monster Energy will be flying him to LA to work with Atlantic Recording Artist Snow Tha Product, where 2 native Texans will cook up some magic...

 

Special thanks to all of our partners, including Monster Energy, Native Instruments, Ableton, iZotope, IK Multimedia, Propellerhead, SAE Institute, ASCAPAudio School Online, but most IMPORTANTLY, the 80+ producers that made the pilgrimage to NYC for the world of music production's biggest event of the year.

 

In lieu of this occasion, we would like to get YOUR feedback on how we can improve our Beat Camp program going into 2015.  We ask if you can take 2 minutes of your time to fill out this quick 10-question SURVEY, and for doing so, we will enter your name into a raffle, where we will pick THREE producers at random to sit with Atlantic Records A&R Success

for a Beat Listening Session in January - NYC.

Take the survey at:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/beatcamp 
 


The Road to Beast of the Beats IX continues with 2014 showcases occurring in NYC, ATL, Denver, Houston, Dallas, LA, SF, Las Vegas, Chicago, Detroit, and Miami.

Producers wishing to submit to our events simply go to:
