BTEC music students spent the day at Ruff Rockers Recording Studios in Uxbridge. The two bands had to learn the discipline of playing accurately and in time and to learn the art of over-dubbing.

One of their recordings, Eclectic Prawn by Dumbo gets Mad, was heard by the original band through Facebook and they said how much they loved our version. And our rendition of Bastille's 'Badblood' was done by the same engineer who had recorded the original, which was very special.

In sum it was a very successful and creative day giving our students an opportunity to work and record in a professional environment. They now have high quality professional demos of their music to take around to universities or to put on the internet.

They worked very hard over the eight hours, absolutely loving it and wanted to stay there for the rest of the term.
