Free PBLA Masterclasses in Mixing & Sound Design w/ Sweatson Klank & Computo

We continue our run of informative sessions with two new free masterclasses on two consecutive days. The first will see Sweatson Klank (Friends of Friends, Sony, Warp, Ghostly, Brainfeeder & more) give a demonstration of the Art of Mixing programme on Tuesday, August 14th (7-8pm). For the second, production wizard, studio native and composer Computo (worked with Flying Lotus, A-Trak and Zedd) will give a masterclass in Sound Design on Wednesday, August 15th (7-8pm). Both events will be held at our incredible space at the Mack Sennett Studios in Silver Lake, and are completely free. Places are allocated on a first-come-first-served basis, so head to Eventbrite to RSVP.


Tom Wilson aka Sweatson Klank has recently completed the release cycle of his fourth LP ‘Fine Lines’ on Friends of Friends, having dropped two EPs on the LA label in the last six months. He has played massive festivals including Coachella, Sonar, Low-End Theory and shared a stage with the likes of Mos Def, Just Blaze, Kode 9, Little Dragon and Flying Lotus. Besides this, he has a wealth of experience in the music industry, working with brands such as Nike, Puma, Reebok, Novation, Ableton and Native Instruments.


Joe ‘Computo’ Caputo is a Hollywood-based producer and sound designer with a serious addiction to modular synthesis. He has been teaching Sound Design at PBLA for over 2 years now, has over 6 years experience at Native Instruments and has composed soundtracks and scores for loads of films and video. He is now focused on modular synth composition and sound design, co-founding the CNTRPNT modular workshop series, as well as being involved in the Voltage Control Lab.
