Here’s what a couple of last participants had to say about the program:
I think what is the most valuable about the QUBE program is that it opens doors to underground musicians, creating opportunities for the younger generations to showcase their talents and also get mentoring on how to stay focussed and be creative. The QUBE effect program made me feel welcome to Australia by accepting my song in my mother tongue, helped me build the confidence of not being ashamed to embrace my culture and showcase my talent with harmony and courage – Bashir
Being a part of the QUBE Effect in 2020 has been an eye opening experience – it’s helped us to really focus on who we are as a band, and helped to grow both creatively and professionally – MVP

AMNPLIFY – DB
CLICK THE PIC TO VIEW THE NEWS
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
