We are delighted to announce our latest development in what has been a very exciting year so far. pointblank Music School and Mumbai’s own The True School of Music (TSM) are joining forces to create a unique and exciting two-week DJ/Entrepreneur Course, taught in TSM’s state-of-the-art facility in Mumbai. This groundbreaking pointblank-developed programme will be collaboratively taught by pointblank and TSM instructors. It focuses on essential DJ skills as well as how to make your mark in the music industry. pointblank, known worldwide as the “Best Electronic Music School” (as voted by readers of DJ Mag), has schools in London, Los Angeles, Ibiza and online, whilst TSM is India’s first music industry training school.
This partnership brings the very best of both worlds and will allow DJs in India to have access to instructors and curriculum from pointblank taught alongside TSM instructors in Mumbai. In addition to intensive teaching, the two-week programme includes an optional live performance in a Mumbai venue. This is a unique experience, not just for DJs in India but also for those around the world, who can enjoy the famous Mumbai vibe whilst being taught by pointblank London & TSM’s DJ instructors.
About the partnership, pointblank CEO Rob Cowan said: “pointblank Music School is delighted to partner with The True School of Music, India’s leading music training facility. We have joined forces to deliver a programme which not only equips up and coming DJs with the essential skills needed to make it on the big stage but also connects students to our extensive industry contacts in London and Mumbai.”
Julia Leggett, CEO of The True School of Music says: “pointblank is a world-class institute and we are very excited by this unique collaboration. With the combination of pointblank, TSM and Pioneer DJ this will be a fantastic opportunity for aspiring DJs in India and beyond to experience the best of both institutes right in the heart of Mumbai”.
Students will learn essential DJ techniques such as tempo and cueing, beat matching, EQ, loops and effects, acapella mixing and preparing a set. In addition, students will learn how to build their identity and brand, how to work with artist management/agents, the intricacies of the live industry, business models, business planning, negotiation skills, web and social media, gaining exposure, growing a fan base and marketing.
