Starting with the basics of installation and running the software, through to programming beats and manipulating samples, we’ll look at all the elements required for you to start putting together your own live coding sets from scratch.
No prior programming or music making experience required
You will need a laptop (mac, PC or linux all fine) and a pair of headphones to take part in this workshop. If you don’t have access to these please contact [email protected]
The most difficult part of learning Tidal is the installation! Please do your best to install before the workshop following the instructions online here. If you can’t install in advance don’t worry! We will be running an installation party before the workshop (11.00-12.00) where we can troubleshoot any problems you are having.
If you have any particular questions or access requirements please feel free to get in touch at [email protected]

Prior to learning TidalCycles back in 2016 she had no experience with programming or making electronic music and is mostly self-taught (with the exception of a few beginners’ workshops like this one!)
