80's Production Techniques

1980s Music Production Techniques is a 2.5-hour masterclass that takes you deep into the authentic sounds and methods of an iconic era.

Led by producers Mario Luciano (Polyphonic Music Library) and Sean Wolcott (Soundview Analog/Clockwork), this exclusive video event leverages their decades of experience to break down the energy and artistry of 1980s gospel, jazz fusion, R&B, and synth-driven music.

Discover essential equipment and recording techniques of the time alongside modern approaches to recreating these timeless sounds with vintage gear, plug-ins, and digital tools. Through detailed song breakdowns, session files, and insights into chords, tempos, grooves, instrument selection, and orchestration, you’ll gain a step-by-step understanding of how to build these vibes from the ground up.

This masterclass also touches on the historical and social influences that shaped the music, providing valuable context for crafting authentic, era-inspired tracks.

This class will NOT have a recorded release available for purchase. You must show up live and attend. If you purchase the class and can't attend we will send you a recording of the session.
