FAQ
Who can join EML?
All students of NUS (National University of Singapore) - full time, part time, exchange, undergraduate, Masters, PhD - can join EML. NUS Alumni who joined EML as students can continue to be members. Members of the public, non-NUS students, NUS Alumni who were not EML members before, are not eligible to join EML.
What do you do every week?
We meet on Saturday afternoons, for lunch (optional) followed by studio sessions led by our Tutor(s) on how to produce and perform electronic music. If we have a performance coming up, we might use the session time to rehearse. Sometimes we also jam (improvise) together in the studio on the lab's collection of synthesizers and controllers
What qualifications / skills / pre-reqs do I need to join?
We accept all levels of experience, from Beginner to Expert/Professional, and everyone in between. If you're a Beginner, we will teach you how to get started producing and performing electronic music. If you're already experienced in producing or performing electronic music, you will join the Experienced group to start preparing for our public performances, and also learn advanced techniques.
What software / hardware do you use?
We conduct all lessons and perform our shows with Ableton Live, on both Macs and Windows machines. If you have a lot of experience with Logic or FL Studio or other software, you can carry on using them, or you can also learn how to port your work into Ableton Live.
