YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Cloudchord
 
Cloudchord aka Derek VanScoten is a Producer, Guitarist, and Ableton Certified Trainer. He is supported by D’Angelico, Fender, Supro, Quilter Labs, Joystrings, Native Instruments, and Ableton. 

In 2024, Cloudchord had several viral social media videos in his Surf Covers series. His Tool cover was shot at CoSM’s Entheon.
 
As an artist, Cloudchord continues to move from strength to strength. 

While known as a highly prolific downtempo artist, his range expands beyond any particular musical genre, tempo, or ideology. While amassing over 130 millions streams, this past year has seen him dropping boom bap bossa novas, funky disco, cinematic lofi, and trancey deep house. Genuine connection with the creative Source is the mission.

Live shows incorporate improv looping, group sing-alongs, uptempo funk numbers, and in the crowd guitar solos.

Past collaborations include Big Gigantic, Emancipator, Braxton Cook, Prob Cause, Dirtwire, East Forest, Oatmello, Sunsquabi, Random Rab, and Ian Ewing. Check out the Cloudchord Essentials Playlist on Spotify for his 10+ hours of released music. 

While much of Cloudchord’s catalog is self released, he has also collaborated with Nettwerk Records, Chillhop Music, Inner Oceans, Aviary Bridge, Loci Records, Gravitas Recordings, and Lofi Chill Records.

Bonus Cloudchord fun facts. 

1. He scored electronic music for the documentary “In Football We Trust,' which debuted at Sundance 2016, and won an Emmy in 2017.
2. He produced the 14 song Disco Biscuits album “Revolution in Motion.”
3. He runs an Ableton Education Youtube station called Open Channels.
4.. He won the Of Monsters and Men remix contest in 2016 with a viral tropical house flip of "Wolves Without Teeth.”
5. In 2023, he did over 200 hours of live looping on Twitch.
