twenty twenty three annual

Welcome to the twenty twenty three Confetti album!

Each year, our Music Production and Music Performance students get to ‘Do It For Real’ by releasing their tracks on this annual compilation.

The album is distributed to a diverse range of music industry experts and bespoke music companies including music publishers, artist managers, record labels, bloggers, radio stations, live agents and industry influencers.

Alongside the performance and production of the Confetti Album, our students also get involved in the album asset management and overall A&R process to gain industry experience across a variety of roles. This is all under the umbrella of Denizen, Confetti’s record label steered by our very own music industry expert, Spencer Wells.

We hope you enjoy listening!
