Vocal processing as a way to find your authentic voice
Welcome to an inspiring masterclass with Jam Rostron, also known as Planningtorock – producer, composer, and a powerful voice within queer pop and electronic dance music.
“During this masterclass Planningtorock will share the different techniques they have developed to process their vocals as well as other music production methods and ideas about queering Sonic’s.”
Through collaborations with artists such as The Knife, Robyn, Lady Gaga, Christine and the Queens, and Romy (The xx), Jam Rostron has helped shape contemporary expressions in electronic and queer pop music for more than two decades.
In this masterclass, Jam opens up their artistic practice and shares insights from their work as a producer and composer, with a particular focus on vocal processing and vocal techniques.
The masterclass is open to anyone working with – or curious about – music production. Whether you are established, experimental, or at the beginning of your creative journey, you are warmly welcome to participate.
