Toolroom’s unique Academy Live events are a great chance to see world-renowned producers in the flesh, and get A&R feedback from team Toolroom. Events so far in Dubai, Brighton, Birmingham, Toronto, Tokyo and Amsterdam have been sold out and resulted in 3 new signings to the label.

A unique way of networking with record label A&Rs and learning from established artists, these events are hugely popular among the producer community.

One thing producers crave above anything is meaningful feedback on their tracks. Making an allstar A&R panel, label boss Mark Knight joins local duo Prok & Fitch to offer guidance and advice on the demos submitted.

Josh Butler makes his debut for the Toolroom Records Academy – one of the most revered young producers of the last few years, he’ll give a session on how he makes that high-calibre, original House sound.

Genre pioneer D Ramirez – known for his groundbreaking productions in Tech House with Toolroom and many other labels, will give an insightful session on getting tracks over the finish line to a finished state.

Finally, new Toolroom signing Ben Remember – who’s been championed by Annie Mac for his fresh sound – will be building a groove live, from scratch!
