Soul Clap At Dubspot To Feature Talk Ableton, Workflow

Take note house music fans - Soul Clap are coming to Dubspot on Monday, May 9th from 7:30-9:00pm EDT for a special music production and performance workshop. The workshop's physical space has been completely booked by the flood of RSVPs via Facebook, but everyone can still tune in to the event live on the Dubspot Blog via Ustream. All future workshops will also be available both in person (RSVPs in limited numbers) and online (for everyone, worldwide).

During their workshop, Soul Clap (Eli Goldstein & Charles Levin e) will demonstrate their collaborative workflow with Ableton Live and multiple performers / computers. The workshop will also feature a discussion on Soul Clap's history and philosophies on production and DJing, leading to an interactive performance featuring five computers and five performers, two of whom will be Charlie and Eli. See them assign and program song parts such as drums, bass and lead, then jam out to create a track, and embody the ideas behind their music through the technology they use.

Check out this download of Soul Clap's "Lonely C" that was recently featured on their DJ Kicks mix, created along with Wolf + Lamb.

Stay tuned for many more workshops coming soon, including Kate Simko on Monday, May 16th. Get all the updates and advanced notices by signing up for Dubspot's mailing list.

About Soul Clap Soul Clap have jumped into the spotlight of the house music community in recent years - a name eponymous with a slower tempo sexy vibe that has crept into the clubs, the charts, and top house labels through their stunning execution of sound. They made their way into playlists worldwide with remixes of Fleetwood Mac and Jamie Foxx , then slipped their own blends into the mix more recently with original (and unique) tracks like "Lonely C." Eli (Elyte) Goldstein Charles (Cnyce) Levine certainly understand the music - they have been honing their craft at clubs and parties for over a decade while living in Boston, MA. But they also seem to have their finger on the pulse of the market, and have quickly become one of the biggest sensations to hit the world circuit of DJ/Producers in the past year, with releases on Wolf + Lamb, Airdrop and Crosstown Rebels. Those releases helped Eli and Charlie find their way into the biggest sound systems around the globe - playing Fabric, The Marcy Hotel and Watergate in 2010. Next came two DJ mixes that were released last month: first a DJ Kicks mix with Wolf + Lamb that is getting high marks from the journalists, and "Social Experiments 002," a party-centric mix for Toronto tastemaker Johnny White's No.19 label.

Ableton Live Suite V8.1.1 + Easy Patch Fileserve Download ...

Ableton Suite is the XL version of Ableton Live. Suite 8 gives you all of the features in Live 8 plus SOUND, with a radically new Library packed with beautiful new sounds and a wealth of useful resources. Suite 8 contains 10 Ableton instruments including synths, a sampler, electric and acoustic drums, mallets, numerous sampled instruments and the new, reworked Operator. Two completely new instruments, Collision and Latin Percussion, round off the set. Ableton Suite 8 is a complete package: the tools AND the sounds. Live is the only music production software with the "Session View": a unique grid for recording and playing musical ideas and phrases. The Session View is non-linear, so you can record and play back your ideas in any order you want. When you're working on a new track, this is a smart, flexible way to write and record. If you're performing music live, it gives you complete flexibility and freedom to improvise. Live also has a second view: the "Arrangement View," a complete music production environment. This is the linear counterpart to the Session View and is well-suited to "traditional" recording, arranging and mixing. These two views interact with one another, each with its own strengths and intricacies. Both views are based on the single principle of creative, intuitive music-making. In Live, you never have to stop the music. Record audio and MIDI on the fly, drop in loops and samples, add effects and swap sounds without ever hitting the stop button: everything happens in real time. You're free to improvise and the computer actually becomes a musical instrument-an expressive and creative tool, perfectly at home on stage or in the studio. Live's unique Drum Rack combines drag-and-drop simplicity in a familiar pad-style interface. Each of the 128 drum pads can have its own instrument or sample plus effects. Slice beats, loops or REX files to MIDI for additional control options and use the new groove feature (which includes grooves from the legendary MPC and SP1200 machines) to add swing to your beats. Live works seamlessly with controller hardware and assigning custom MIDI controls is simple. Live supports AIFF, WAV, MP3, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC files, VST and AU effects and instruments. Live can handle REX files and runs as a ReWire Master or Slave, so it works nicely alongside other DAWs like Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase or Reason. And if you have a multicore or multiprocessor system, Live supports that, too.
