Sharing the love with our Stylophone family
The situation here in the UK is changing all the time due to the Corona Virus and some of you around the world will be in isolation in your homes.
In our own small way, we would really like to make this time a little bit more bearable for the global Stylophone family. We will support you online, post your sounds, videos and conversations, keeping spirits up and the creative vibe alive and well.
If you’d like to contribute, please tag us in your posts on social media or use the hashtag #Stylophone so we can find you. If you have any suggestions on how we can all share the love and encourage each other to make music at home, please email or message us with your ideas.
More than anything, keep in touch, you are not alone. Sending our very best wishes to every single one of you. ✌❤
Meet the Stylophone Women of the Future
Meet the Stylophone Women of the Future
It's International Women's day! We take a look at the amazing organisations we support, that are doing great work for women in the audio industry.
The Yorkshire Sound Women Network (YSWN) was set up to help women and girls explore sound and music technology. They do this through workshops, mentoring schemes, skill-sharing, public performance and community events.
We think they’re doing great work - so we sent them some Stylophone kit to use in their workshops, and are very proud to support them!
To find out more about The Yorkshire Sound Women Network, check out their website: https://yorkshiresoundwomen.com/
We’ve also been supporting a similar organisation in San Francisco...
We were excited to see the ‘Girls on the Mic’ students learning with the StylophoneGenX1 in San Francisco!
Girls on the Mic is an after-school mentoring program that helps underprivileged girls aged 11-18 develop skills in music. It provides access to instruments and technology they wouldn’t normally have.
The project is run by the Women’s Audio Mission. They’re rightly concerned that less than 5% of the people creating the sounds, music and media we hear today are women or gender non-conforming individuals.
We donated Stylophones and Stylophone Gen X-1 and are excited that they'll help inspire more young women to play.
For more info, check out the Womens Audio Mission www.womensaudiomission.org or look for the hashtag #GirlsOnTheMic.
