LOS ANGELES, Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Output, a global leader in music creation software, today announces Output CoLAB, a community-building program that serves to connect up-and-coming music-makers with unique opportunities, resources, and mentorship with successful music industry veterans. The program kicks off in partnership with Grammy Award-winning songwriting and production duos, Nova Wav and Stargate.

“At a time when artistry is being threatened by AI-generated music, human collaboration and creativity is more important than ever. We created CoLAB with the goal of empowering music-makers with the resources and connections to grow their music careers.”

Nova Wav and Stargate, founders of Los Angeles Academy for Artists and Music Production (LAAMP) are known for their work in the R&B and hip-hop genres. Nova Wav has worked with legendary artists like Rihanna, Ariana Grande, and Beyonce, and their most recent work can be heard on Beyonce’s iconic albums, Cowboy Carter (2024) and Renaissance (2022). Grammy Award-winning and ASCAP songwriters, Stargate, are best known for their prolific work in the pop, R&B, and hip-hop genres and are behind hits like Beyoncé’s “Irreplaceable,” Rihanna’s “Don’t Stop the Music” and “Diamonds,” and Ne-Yo’s “So Sick,” among others.

“With the abundance of music creation tools available, Output has always stood out to us in their ability to build tools that inspire real creativity,” said Brittany “Chi” Coney of Nova Wav. “We are thrilled to partner with them to inspire the next wave of artists and set them up with the tools and skills to succeed.”

“With LAAMP, we wanted to create an environment where young, talented, and driven music creators can collaborate and get real-time feedback from established industry pros to take their music to the next level,” said Mikkel Eriksen of Stargate. “That’s why we’re thrilled to partner with Output to build a wide-reaching and accessible community for up-and-coming artists to create music and receive meaningful feedback.”

Built for musicians, by musicians, Output has become known for building products that address the specific needs of its music-making community. Through a recent survey with up-and-coming music makers, Output found that the overwhelming majority want to develop deeper professional relationships in the industry to support their career growth. Since its inception 10 years ago, Output has been building deep connections in the music industry and saw CoLAB as an opportunity to open these connections to the broader community.

CoLAB is a natural extension of Output, a company committed to building technology grounded in human connection and artistry. Rooted in collaboration and mentorship, the program will provide opportunities for aspiring artists to connect with CoLAB partners – including world-class artists, creators and producers, educational institutions, and other music industry veterans – and learn from the best.

“The music industry is becoming increasingly more complex and challenging to navigate – especially for artists early in their career,” said Gregg Lehrman, Founder and CEO of Output. “At a time when artistry is being threatened by AI-generated music, human collaboration and creativity is more important than ever. We created CoLAB with the goal of empowering music-makers with the resources and connections to grow their music careers.”

In the summer of 2024, Output and Stargate launched a contest for one lucky artist to secure a spot in LAAMP’s six-week online session where participants will collaborate with other musicians and engage in workshops led by music heavyweights, Benny Blanco, Emily Warren, NeYo, and more.

Additionally, to celebrate the launch of CoLAB, Output is giving away a trip to LA, time spent in a world-class studio, and mentorship for one lucky winner. Output will be tapping its partners, including De-Fi, Novation, Shure, and Range Music on the mentorship.

January 11, 2025

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

Join Us at KBIS 2025

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the future of kitchen safety. Visit Docking Drawer at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas this February to see firsthand how their Safety Interlock Outlets are revolutionizing appliance garage safety.
