Music Production Software for 200 Students From a Low-Income School!

Funded Dec 3, 2023

I wanted to check in again to give you a progress report how Soundtrap has impacted our class room culture. Even though the funding just came through, we've been using the free trial of the software since December 1st. And thanks to your donation, we can continue to use it until January 2025.

In the past 5 weeks, we've started our first project, where students are making their own beats to famous rap songs we've discussed in class.

There has been an incredible shift in our class atmosphere. Students who initially resisted class, took Soundtrap and flew with it. I can't explain what it was like to witness kids instantly bond over making music that they like. Being able to produce music has given students agency and empowerment, and most importantly: it made learning about music fun for them.

As we progress throughout the year, we will use Soundtrap to dive deeper into different musical genres, as well as learn concrete production skills they could take with them next year to their next level of learning.”
