Making music at The Dock
By Niccola Anthony
A number of budding young music producers turned out at The Dock on June 21 for a musical production workshop.
The City of Melbourne ran a “junior producer” workshop for Make Music Day, a worldwide celebration of music making.
About a dozen children and their mums made “music” through their voices, hands and feet.
Sound engineer Mikhail Rogachevsky has been running his own workshops for a couple of years, using the production software FL Studio to create music and experiment with sounds.
“The goals of the workshops are really to encourage children to have a go at the different equipment and to give them an introduction into seeing how things work,” he said.
“Every workshop is completely different, so I’m still learning a lot about producing with other people.”
Mr Rogachevsky says the space provided at The Dock has been a fantastic venue to conduct his workshops from.
“It’s a great space by the water. I couldn’t ask for anything better,” he said.
