This four-hour interactive music program begins with an overview of music structure and the "cutting-edge" industry tools. Following the overview and introduction, guests are separated into groups of "Executive Producers" and "DJs" to learn those crafts in the multi-million dollar state-of-the-art sound studio located in the heart of San Francisco

Our Master DJs will help you to mix your songs and record them onto a CD that's yours to keep. As a program finale, you'll have the opportunity to give a rock star performance and sing your song in front of your group.
