UJAM Community Month: Weekly Discord Challenges, Giveaways & Live Q&A
This summer, we're putting the spotlight on the people who make our community what it is.
June 2nd, 2026
Welcome to UJAM’s Community Month, a celebration of creativity, collaboration, and music-making. Throughout June, our Discord server will become a hub of weekly challenges, live events, giveaways, and exclusive opportunities to connect with fellow producers and the team behind UJAM.
To make things even more exciting, we'll be giving away one free UJAM plugin of your choice every week to a randomly selected challenge participant. That means everyone who enters has a chance to win.
Weekly Challenges & Prizes
Every week brings a new creative challenge designed to spark fresh ideas, encourage experimentation, and push your production skills in unexpected directions.
