Dan De Lissandri

Dan De Lissandri is Managing Director of DJ School UK in Leeds and has a passion for making music and teaching people to be creative with music technology. Dan has had a number of record releases over the years and performs regularly as a DJ. As a youngster he played trumpet and cello and went on to study Music Technology at Sheffield University.

The workshop Dan will be delivering at Cellofest focuses on using sampling, music production, sound design and performance. Each participant will have the opportunity to sample their own instrument and put the samples into professional music production software. In the software participants can then manipulate the samples alongside MIDI plugins and audio loops to make an original piece of music. The music will then be played at the concerts at the end of the Cellofest week.
