Musicademy training stream at Mission Worship

By Marie@Musicademy | April 19, 2013


Musicademy will be running 8 masterclasses at this years’ Mission Worship conference In Eastbourne, UK in November. The seminar details are not yet published on the Mission Worship website but we thought we’d give you a sneak preview here. Andy Chamberlain, Tim Martin and Catherine White will be delivering the seminars over the weekend.

The theme for the weekend is “It’s time to release worship to the poor”. What does that mean? Well, for the most part we understand that worship is a real action word. It’s about loving what God loves, caring for what God cares for and from time to time it’s about the sound that comes from our lips on a Sunday.

We who love God, we who worship Him, we who lead others in worship have a responsibility to show our worship through our actions. For if we do not care for the poor and stand against injustice in our communities, in our towns, in our country and in our world, how will God’s will be done? It’s time for the church to release worship to the poor!

There are some great bands and speakers lined up including Martin Smith, Robin Mark, Worship Central, Brian Doerksen, Desperation Band, Chris McLarney and Glenn Packiam.

If you’d like to join us click through to the Mission Worship website for more information and to book. There’s a £20 discount off when booking before the end of May.

Genuine terrible Christian demo tapes #2

By Marie@Musicademy | April 17, 2013

Here’s the second in our series of “interesting” Christian demos. These were genuinely sent to a record company A and R.

In this demo we never actually get to hear the vocal. But we do get an awful lot of information about the lady in question. Enjoy!

Worship Backing Band DVD Volume 2 launched

By Marie@Musicademy | April 15, 2013

NEW! Worship Backing Band DVD Volume 2.
All new songs. Mixable vocals. Create your own play lists.
The lowest cost option for worship backing tracks. 

Does your church want to have great times of worship together but you don’t have any musicians? 

Worship Backing Band Volume 2 is a single DVD featuring backing tracks for 35 contemporary worship songs with on-screen lyrics and fully mixable vocals. This means that you can set the vocals at zero all the way up to full depending on whether you have a confident lead singer yourself.

All designed for churches and small groups on a budget.

Volume 2 launches today and incorporates a variety of exciting upgrades from our loved and hugely popular volume 1.

New features for volume 2

  • Programmable play lists so you can choose the songs in advance and have them seamlessly flow from one to the next
  • As well as a TV/DVD, PC or Mac, you can rip the songs to an iPod, iPad, or smartphone
  • Choose the level of vocals. You can mix the level of lead vocal from full to zero, or anywhere in between simply by adjusting the left/right audio balance on your your hifi, computer, mixing desk iPad or iPod. Full details of how to do this are given with the DVDs. Read More »
