Great courses. Lots of relevant info and building blocks needed to make electronic music.

Tom Dordoy

I found the instructors very informed and informative! The course is perfect for beginners as it covers very basic things as well as going into lots of detail on other things. I thoroughly enjoyed the course 🙂

Katrina Mcinley

If you’re looking for in-depth knowledge about electronic music and how to create sounds using 3rd party software through Ableton or Logic then this course will definitely help you! Beginners can follow along but if you’re a more advanced producer, then this will definitely show you more advanced techniques to apply to your productions! Extremely happy I found and attended this course!
