BASECAMP
artist development group
Create authentically. Grow with community.
Unlock your creative potential in this immersive online mentorship program designed for artists and producers of all genres and experience levels.
BASECAMP Artist Development Group is an ongoing program for artists who want to slow down, reconnect with their purpose, and dedicate themselves to their craft.
In a digital landscape oversaturated with tutorials that teach you how to make any sound under the sun, BASECAMP offers something different: support in learning how to be an artist.
Here, your artistry and authenticity comes before clout, and process matters more than streaming statistics or outcomes.
Through weekly online gatherings, mindful creative practices, and honest conversations, you’ll develop your artistic voice in a community that values depth over speed and authenticity over algorithms.
Led by dot and supported by a circle of dedicated peers, BASECAMP is a place to ground yourself, refine your skills, and create from a place of truth.

What is BASECAMP?
BASECAMP is a return to the heart of music, and offers an alternative to the pressure, noise, and hype of the current music landscape. It’s an ongoing artist development group for musicians who are tired of chasing algorithms, trends, and constant output—and who want to return to the real work of building their artistry.
Most resources teach you how to recreate a sound. BASECAMP helps you understand who you are as an artist, what you stand for, and how to create work that lasts. Here, we explore not just how to produce, but how to be an artist. We share our stories, our uncertainties, our breakthroughs.
We listen deeply. We practice devotion to our craft. We build community rooted in honesty, curiosity, and mutual support. Through mindful creative practices, honest conversations, and a community of artists committed to growth, BASECAMP gives you the space to slow down, focus, and build a sustainable creative life.

"Where to begin... dot is amazing. Not only as an artist but as a human being. I loved how real, personal, and connected this program is. I loved the creative challenges that forced you to get out of your head and your normal production routine and see things differently. I have developed so much more as a creative individual and finally feel confident about my music and my focus."

"This program was without a doubt the best investment I could have made for my personal development as an artist. It gave me the ability to have more faith in my works and to adapt practices that are now reflected within my music. dot was a tremendous leader who was not only dependable and consistent, but wise in how she approached the curriculum."
