Tilly is finishing her first year studying Entrepreneurial Audio Production after finding her interest in sound for visual media and post-production.

Coming to the end of his first year of Music Production with Foundation Entry, Gustavo has been making the most of his time at Spirit, creating his first sample pack, exploring different recording techniques in the studio, and embracing new genres when collaborating with students on compositions.

If you’re a fan of the Northern grime scene, you’ll likely recognise third year Music Production student, Bradley aka ‘Blizzard.’ Starting out in Manchester grime collective ‘Mayhem’ he’s featured on platforms such as SB:TV, Fire in the Booth, and BBC Radio 1 Xtra. Nearly a decade later Bradley is back in the North West, coming to the end of his degree.

Getting ready for a summer of stage teching at festivals wasn't something Lilly would have expected two years ago.
