The CMJ/DubSpot Panel lineup:
"Beat Generation"
10/17 @ NYU Kimmel Center
Composers of electronica and hip hop beats are notoriously undervalued, their
musicianship and skill overlooked as tinkering with buttons and knobs. This session
brings the artistry of hip hop and dance production to light with special appearances by
legendary producers from both genres. (Wednesday, Oct. 17th at 4pm) Pete Rock, Stephanie
Douglas (Beat society) & DJ Spinna are confirmed to participate in this panel. Kervyn

"Natural Selection: The Evolution of DJ to Producer"
10/19 @ DubSpot Facility
The craft of the disc jockey constantly evolves with the incorporation of new elements
