New York City based non profit Art for Progress has launched an online music resource for NYC students and anyone who's interested in learning how to produce music, play an instrument or vocal instruction.
In response to the school closures and what seems like the
inevitable end of the school year, Art for Progress is taking a progressive
approach to providing instruction for our students in both our elective music
classes, after school programs and our BREC campus wide after school music
program.
To address this challenge, we will be providing weekly educational videos that will align with what was being taught in the classrooms prior to the school closures- instrument instruction, vocal instruction and music production. New content will be posted along with a narrative for each video, and our teachers will be available to take questions, arrange chats and for follow up meetings.
We expect to launch the online program on Monday, March 23rd and as we come up with more creative ideas we will continue to add more to the program. At this point, we will provide as many resources as possible to be sure that this is the best experience we can provide outside of the classroom.
We’re excited to do this for our students and for anyone who wants to learn through this new resource. For any inquiries, please contact admin@artforprogress.org.

With such a wide range of music production equipment out there, creating your own home studio has never been easier, cheaper and more accessible. Expensive equipment isn't always necessary to produce top quality work, as many low to mid range products on the market are actually competing with some of the top brands. Here are the top 3 tips on how to start producing your music without spending too much or sacrificing the quality of your sound.
Research the best equipment in your price range
When you begin any new practice, research is always key. And with an art form as technical as music production, it's almost essential to look into what audio interfaces you need and how to use them. If you go in blind, then you risk overspending on unnecessary, fancy equipment. In order to feel at ease with what you're doing, don't let yourself feel out of your depths:
Break down what you need: the interface, a mic/instruments and sound outputs
Research what both the amateurs and pros use
Compare the equipment based on quality and price
Take advantage of free recording software
Whilst 'freemium' software may not always have the advanced functions that paid software does, it's still useful when you're starti[...]
