STUDIO BOOST

Since 2022, Parachute has been running an initiative called Studio Boost, to help support musicians who are in the midst of developing their careers and gaining traction in the music industry. Studio Boost offers this hand-picked group of producers, songwriters, and artists regular free time in a producer studio; along with access to mentoring support.

With thanks to NZ On Air, the NZ Music Commission, Longview Trust, and Recorded Music NZ for making this possible.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT

Over the past 10 years, Parachute Music has run an annual Artist Development programme to help give high-potential artists holistic support to help them start their careers. The programme has offered songwriting development & feedback, regular time in one of our project studios, co-writing & recording opportunities, mentoring, branding assistance, and involvement with Parachute’s wider community.

Please note: We are not currently accepting applications for this programme.

PRODUCER DEVELOPMENT

During 2020 and 2021, Parachute ran a bespoke programme to help up and coming producers. We offered these young music-makers opportunities to collaborate with other musicians, be mentored by established producers, and gain regular experience in the studio.

Please note: We discontinued this programme at the end of 2021.
