# Build Your Own 808 Bass Drum With LeafAudio **Update: The workshop has unfortunately been canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. ** Electronic Beats is heading back down to Leipzig this weekend for our annual festival on Friday, so we linked up with the local LeafAudio crew to host a workshop on how to build a variety of sound-making machines. Tickets to the lesson are 60-95 euro each, and you can complete the mandatory registration process [here][1]{: target="_blank"}, but you can win free entry to the pre-festival get-together by commenting on this post before Wednesday at 16:00 Berlin time. The workshop takes place at Täubchenthal on the afternoon of Thursday, November 20, which is the day before our concert starring Asbjørn, Wild Beasts, Sylvan Esso, and Shura---you can grab tickets for that event [here][2]{: target="_blank"}. We first hooked up with LeafAudio last year, when we filmed one of the honchos building a TR-808 bass drum by hand for a Slices: Tech Talk feature. [LEAF AUDIO (EB.TV Tech Talk)][3]{: target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} This time around, they're going to teach us how to build the bass drum ourselves. They'll also instruct us on how to build distortion boxes for guitars and a drone synth, both of which you can sample below.
