Music Production Lessons

Our music production lessons are the result of years of experience, and the valuable insights gained from working on a wide range of studio projects, from underground dance music releases to compositions and productions for major TV networks (BBC, Channel 4, Netflix). You'll understand the logic behind composition, sound design, arrangement, and mixing, ensuring that you’re not just copying what others do, but internalizing concepts that allow you to create your own unique sound.

Our courses focus on two of the most popular DAWs: Logic Pro and Ableton, equipping you with the tools and knowledge to create professional-quality music on your computer.
