Ableton launches new Loop Sessions series with Grand River

Ableton will launch its new Loop Sessions series this weekend with electronic music composer Grand River. 

Loop Session is a new series of online events geared toward music makers, with each session delivering an insight into the working practices of a specific artist. This Saturday, 21st May, Dutch-Italian composer, poly-instrumentalist and producer Grand River will host the first free session, offering an online walkthrough of her studio, followed by a behind-the-scenes look at  her electro-acoustic compositional process – from finding inspiration and making creative decisions to selecting instruments to recording.

The Berlin-based artist will also join Ableton’s Dennis DeSantis for a 90-minute studio session at the city’s Bewake Studios, during which she will compose a piece of music. After the session attendees can join the group chat and live Q&A in the Loop Café, a virtual hang out space for further discussion.

The Loop Session is free and does not require registration. It will take place at 5pm BST (6pm CET) on 21st May. Set a reminder via the Ableton Loop site.
