All members have access to our private community portal and app. Use our members’ directory and discussion threads to connect with like-minded creatives across different aspects of music creation, DJing and the wider industry.
Enjoy unlimited access to our archive of 100+ workshop videos, featuring sessions with artists like Octo Octa, I Jordan, ML Buch, Art School Girlfriend, Heba Kadry and Lorraine James – all included with our top-tier membership package.
"I love being part of a creative collective and more importantly feeling part of a community. Being part of Saffron Members has urged me to become even more accountable in terms of prioritising my creative practice and setting aside time for it as a matter of course."
Leona, Sustainer Member
“The member workshops are my favourite part. I've been able to discover new artists and their creative processes. It has also been an important factor in helping me to navigate with more confidence through my DAW and learn about EQs. The "making music" forum on the community platform has been very beneficial too. I've shared a project and I received comments about how I could improve it. Having the opportunity to listen to the songs of other members has made me feel less lonely in this process.”
Sacha, Sustainer Member
“The variety of online workshops has really helped me develop my skills in several different areas, from mixing to event organisation and personal branding. It's also been a really fun and entertaining way to connect with other creatives from around the world. I also love checking out the online community to see what others are up to and share my own work.”
Selva, Sustainer Member
“As someone who has recently moved to the UK, being a Saffron Member has helped me a lot to connect with different people and learn more about the electronic scene and music industry. Also, the offers and discounts to gear and events are very helpful (especially for those who don’t have a regular income.”
