AudioActive constantly take inspiration from new trends and technological developments to make sure that our work with young people is fresh, original and always evolving.

Funding from PRSF will help support partnerships accross the South East to deliver music workshops to children and young people, with the aim of helping to nurture talented young musicians. They will work with young musicians in isolated rural locations to use online technology to allow them to collaborate with top music producers from around the world, and give them new skills and influences.
