IMS College Malta 2017 Masterclass

IMS College Malta 2017 Masterclass

I'm looking forward to visiting IMS Malta again this year where I'll be deconstructing Jamiroquai's recent hit 'Automaton'.

What's more, I've got five passes to give away, so get in touch if you're interested. You'll have to make your own way to Malta though!
