There are two programs, primarily. The first is
a year-long program where middle and high
school students are registered in a music
technology class at their respective schools and
are bussed to our labs each week for classes
taught by Audiostate staff and my upper-level
music technology majors and interns from
the University of Alabama at Birmingham
(UAB). The second is our music technology
summer camps.
The entertainment division of the company is
involved in recording and producing artists
whose projects are released on the Audiostate
55 Entertainment label and distributed
worldwide via Warner Music Group. The
entertainment company is also involved heavily
in the production of live concerts and film.
And while we don’t want to name drop, we’ve
been really fortunate to be invited to produce
some really “huge” an
and events.
