NYC's first DJ, VJ and electronic music production school

DubSpot is the first DJ, VJ and electronic music production school to open in New York City. Launched in December 2006 and located in the Meatpacking District of Manhattan, the school offers a wide range of courses in a brand new facility, outfitted with cutting-edge equipment and software.

With weekly courses ranging from mixing, scratching, and electronic music production, to even video and visual training, DubSpot students can practice production techniques or hone their DJing skills. Each individual workstation is outfitted with Serato Scratch Live, a 17-inch Intel iMac, two Technics 1210 turntables, a Digidesign Mbox audio interface, Logic Pro, Reason, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, and more.

All sessions limited to a maximum of six students. Advanced DJ course students will perform live at a New York nightclub for their final exam.

Hailing from a diverse set of musical backgrounds, DubSpot’s current instructors include Dustin Cook of SAE Institute of Technology and System Recordings, JP Solis of Crobar and Satellite Records, Neil Armstrong and DJ Daddy Dog (5th Platoon), and Crobar's Chris Biggins.
