Become a confident & creative music producer
A 10-week online Ableton Live course with live group sessions and regular 1-to-1 mentoring. No prior experience needed - by the end, you’ll have finished tracks and the skills to keep creating forever.
our philosophy
Most music production courses lean too heavily on the technical side and often miss what really matters: a healthy creative process and training your ears to listen closely.
We take a different approach. Our goal is to help you build confidence as a creative person, discover your musical identity, and make work that feels true to you.
Yes, we’ll dive deep into Ableton (we’ve got 30 years’ combined experience), but our role is less about lecturing on software and more about creative coaching. We’re here to guide, support, and challenge you so you can grow into the artist you want to be.
