PHILADELPHIA RECORDING SCHOOL

PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA is the 4th largest DMA in the
United States. The city sports a NFL team (Eagles), a MLB team
(Phillies), a NBA team (76ers) and a hockey team (Flyers).
Philadelphia was the home of American Bandstand which shaped America’s
Top 40 music tastes with its daily TV broadcasts from 1957 through 1963
before going to a weekly format that lasted through 1989. During
its
heyday, a single appearance on American Bandstand could launch a new
artist, not to mention a new dance craze. The movie Hairspray is
loosely based on this phenomena.
Philadelphia is steeped in musical heritage, stretching back to
colonial times, providing world renowned innovations in classical
music, opera, R&B, jazz and soul. Philadelphia was also a major
player in the early development of hip hop .
For the music student, Philadelphia’s RECORDING CONNECTION School of
Music Recording is an instrumental part of getting into the music
business. By providing connections that get the student in the
door of a major Philadelphia recording studio, under the direct
mentorship of a Philadelphia recording engineer or music producer,
RECORDING CONNECTION is able to deliver real world experience to back
up music theory.
You will get professional mentoring on Reason and Pro Tools. You
will learn how to deal with clients, how to run a studio, and of
course, everything you need to know to be a top-notch recording
engineer. RECORDING CONNECTION students also receive dozens of
Philadelphia music contacts during their six month
apprenticeship. Upon graduation, the Philadelphia RECORDING
CONNECTION student has the two things necessary to get hired in the
music business—real world job experience and real industry connections.
