The students present in the video are part of Dubspot's three level Music Foundations program designed and developed by Martin Perna, an Austin, Texas based musician, educator and social entrepreneur. Currently available in our school in New York City and Dubspot Online, this program provides the best possible start to the newcomer in electronic music production as well as DJing.
