Through Monmouth\u2019s partnership with Lakehouse Recording Studios in Asbury Park, NJ, selected artists record their music in an authentic, real-world setting. During the semester, members of Blue Hawk Records create artwork, develop marketing materials, and plan a release party for the record. Students direct the production process from start to finish and gain a comprehensive understanding of industry practices.<\/p>\n<p>For many students, Blue Hawks Records is the building block on which they set the foundation for successful careers. By collaborating with professional artists outside the Monmouth community, students are given advanced networking opportunities within local markets. And through Monmouth\u2019s exclusive partnership with the GRAMMY Museum, students have access to research programs, professional development programs, project-based learning, and other educational resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe music industry today is a convergence of music, media, technology and platforms,\u201d Rapolla says. \u201cBy combining hands-on components such as Blue Hawk Records and our industry partnerships with the major music and technology companies, specifically Warner Music, Universal Studios, Capitol Records, the Music Biz Association and GRAMMY Museum, our program is geared toward providing students with training that is aligned with today\u2019s dynamic music and entertainment media industries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Lakehouse Recording Studios building\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/mca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/568\/2017\/09\/lakehouse-1.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Blue Hawk Records, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/BlueHawkRecords\/\" target=\"_blank\">please visit their Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Blue Hawk Records, you create the beat.
