Beat Making Lab

<p class="paragraph_style">Beat Making Lab is an innovative course taught in the Music Department at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Developed by producer and drummer Apple Juice Kid and Dr. Mark Katz (author of Groove Music: The Art and Culture of the Hip Hop DJ) in 2011, the curriculum offers instruction in practical beat making, a history of popular music production and entrepreneurship. Emcee and professor Pierce Freelon joined Levitin to co-teach the popular class in 2012.&nbsp;</p> <p class="paragraph_style">Establishing the course at UNC was just the first step in a larger plan, which includes teaching Beat Making on campuses, and in communities on a local and global level.&nbsp;Beat Making Lab is being developed for introduction in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the summer of 2012. Congolese not-for-profit organization Yole!Africa will host the Lab, which will offer African youth the opportunity to work with the Beat Making curriculum, as well as DJs, dancers and other artists.</p>
