You want your music to be unique, captivating and totally individual.
But you've probably noticed how It’s becoming increasingly difficult to stand out in an oversaturated industry. Everyday over 60,000 new tracks are uploaded to Spotify alone!
I’ve been able to stand out as an artist and gain wider success through incorporating field recordings into my music and that’s I’m thrilled to be offering you the chance to hone these techniques with me for the first time in this weekend intensive retreat.
It’s time to take your recording and production skills to the next level through the power of field recording.
During This Weekend Together, You'll Learn How To...
1
Professionally Record The Sounds Around You
even if you’re only getting started with a smartphone.
2
Edit And Manipulate Field Recordings
to extract unique and mesmerising sonic textures (with just a couple of free plugins!)
3
Sample Field Recordings
and create totally individual beats, melodies and other exciting textures in your music.
The act of listening grounds us within our own inner world from which - in turn - inspiration springs.

Your field recordings are a valuable asset and something you can potentially make an income from. This guide will show you how to get started!
The truth is— this industry can be hard on women and my journey hasn't always been easy BUT I’ve come out on top, mastered my craft, even got a PhD in Sonic Arts, and all because I didn’t want anything to stop me freely expressing myself on my terms.
You might be thinking that field recording is a niche skill, and far too experimental to incorporate into your music. But my most successful song ever, Waiting For You, which has over 20M Spotify streams, features a field recording - in fact, I believe it's one of the reasons this song has connected so effectively with listeners all over the world.
Take a listen to see if you can spot it right at the end!
I’m on a mission to give other women the tools to show up as an artist with integrity, confidence and self-respect through opportunities just like this retreat.
