The programme will cover all the essentials to succeed in the music industry, including; using DJ equipment at the highest level of performance, mastering production and software skills, marketing, social media and branding, business and career development, plus workshops and classes focused on health, meditation and wellbeing.

DJ, Producer and Orbit Co-Founder Doorly will be joined by host of mentors, instructors and music industry experts including Warp Records DJ and producer Nightmares on Wax, music industry legend Rob Da Bank; Street tracks label boss WAZE (formerly of Waze & Odyssey)BBC Radio 1’s Arielle Free, Moonharbour’s Hauswerks; Drumcode DJ and producer Juliet Fox; GAWP from Dirtybird Recordings, Ableton’s Mark Burnett, Alex Jukes of Jukebox PR plus many more.

Doorly, Orbit co-founder says: After our last retreat the Orbit team and I have been over the moon with the response from our students and the success stories that we’re already having with our alumni. Many signed to their favorite record labels, and played dream gigs. I’ve even signed a few to my own label which was a nice bonus, to find such amazing untapped talent like this is a really special thing.  Watching their success invigorates us, and that’s what this is all about!

So we’re extremely excited to launch our October for the opening and closing of the season. As last year we will be giving a free scholarship to one very talented applicant and one free spot to the winner of a remix competition which we will be launching soon. We will also continue to build on our ethos of being more than just a DJ and production retreat focussing heavily on well being, Physically and mentally to prepare our Students for Long, Prosperous and Positive careers in Music with a full team in place to support them along the way from every angle.
