Translated by Google. Click to view original.
You know you/your band has some music ready to go out into the world. But how do you start doing that yourself? Everything starts with a good recording of your music and then mixing and mastering it and then sending your beautifully finished songs out into the world. But how does that work exactly and what do you need?Well I can help with that.
I teach you...
-Work with Presonus Studio One (my personal choice) or any other DAW
-How to record instruments and vocals.
-How to balance the instruments with volume, panning, EQ, compression and much more. (mixing)
-How to finish your mixed songs so they sound as loud and punchy as songs on Spotify and the radio. (mastering)
-How to work efficiently and easily with your DAW.
-How to create backing tracks that live along with your band's performance so that you get that extra professional touch.
I can also support you with the purchase of your equipment such as. Headphones, studio monitor, DAW, audio interface, microphone, ect...
See you in class!

About Me
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Welcome to My Apprentus profile.My name is Bret
I've been playing bass guitar for 13 years. And I have also been very actively working with this instrument for 13 years.
I play in bands like.
Fry Paula
Soundalicious
Dean Delannoit (2007 idol winner)
And as a freelance much more like.
Robin DeLaRuelle (the voice)
Peter De Roeck AKA Roekie (the voice)
And much more.
The nice thing about being able to do so many different projects is that you come into contact with many different styles. From Rock, Pop, Disco and Funk to Jazz and Blues. And even electronic music.
In short, every bass player can come to me!
Whether you have just bought a bass guitar for the first time and would like to get started as soon as possible.
When you're stuck and need that extra push.
If you would like to be able to slap like Flea, Mark King or Marcus Miller.
Or are you just interested in Jazz and walking bass?
I don't shy away from a challenge.
See you soon!
Education
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
After I had been playing bass at home on my own for 2 years, I decided to enroll in the conservatory of Mechelen where I took lessons for a while.Later it turned out that this conservative way of taking lessons was not really my thing and I started taking private lessons.
Thanks to my teacher who really believed in me, I was able to work in various bands and projects.
Since then, there are more than 30 performances on my agenda every year.
In short, playing a lot is a good learning experience, but a good teacher works wonders.
Experience / Qualifications
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Already more than 200 performances on the counter in Belgium and the Netherlands.Nothing is more fun than being able to perform on a regular basis and entertain the audience. Whether at a festival of thousands of people or at a local cafe or even a live stream. I like to do it all.
As a bassist I also have many hours of studio experience on assignment for various artists. There is nothing that gives me more satisfaction as a bass player than a successful collaboration with other artists who are looking for a suitable bass line for their song.

Electronic Music Production – Ableton Live, Synthesis, Sound Design, Composition, Mixing, Mastering, and Live PerformanceHi, my name is Jim. I'm an electronic music producer with a Master’s degree in Music from the Fontys Academy of Arts (Rockacademie) in Tilburg, Netherlands. Music has always been my way of exploring the world — through raw field recordings, synthesis, and emotional storytelling. Over the past 12 years, I’ve developed a complete, self-sufficient creative process: from concept to composition, sound design to vocal production, mixing, mastering, and live performance. I’m passionate about helping others gain those same end-to-end technical skills — so they can bring their own musical vision fully to life.
As Malvae, I’ve written, sung, recorded, produced, mixed, mastered, and performed all of my work. My music reached #17 in the Spotify Viral 50 charts in the USA, gathered millions of streams, and featured in international film productions including King of the Streets and Netflix’s Terrace House Japan. One of the most formative moments in my career was my Amazonas album project, where I traveled into the Amazon rainforest to record and manipulate natural sounds. 90% of that album was created entirely from these field recordings, reshaped through granular synthesis and advanced sound design into a cohesive sonic journey. That experience deeply shaped how I approach my music and how I teach sound design and composition.
I’ve headlined shows at iconic venues like Melkweg Amsterdam with immersive, self-built audiovisual live sets using Ableton Live, modular gear, sequencers, and Resolume for live integrated visuals. I curated my own events and performed at venues like A’dam Tower, OT301. I also teach at studios such as Wisseloord in Hilversum, guiding students through the technical and creative intersections of sound and performance.
Selected Works & Collaborations:
My EP Like Bees to a Hive began as a soundscape for fashion brand Lobomar’s collection Final Orders, Please, presented at the Amsterdam World Museum. I collaborated with South African poet Julia-Beth Harris, integrating her spoken word into a seamless, atmospheric release. From sequential Prophet 6 textures to ADX1 drum machine layers and detailed field recordings, I handled every layer, from concept through multitrack production to the final live performance in London.
My Chrysalis EP, released as a limited-edition heavyweight red vinyl, pushed that even further, combining ethereal vocals, analog grit, and unique textures to craft an emotionally rich release. I personally led every part of the project’s technical and creative execution, from arrangement and vocal production to final mixing, mastering and vinyl press preparation.
In addition to my own projects, I’ve worked as a vocal producer and mixing engineer, including on Esther Veen’s EP Before I Go, where I handled recording, complex vocal layering, creative processing, production, multivocal arrangement and final mixing to deliver a polished, high-impact sound.
About the lessons:
My sessions are fully customised to your experience level, goals and grounded in real-world music production. Whether you’re just getting started or want to deepen your technical ability, you’ll learn how to develop professional workflows and the creative independence to finish what you start.
We can explore:
- Building advanced music production workflows and creative strategies
- Recording, Composition, arrangement, and storytelling through sound
- Full-stack mixing and mastering — from bedroom setups to pro-level delivery
- Synthesis and sampling — from sound shaping basics to high-level manipulation
- Multi vocal production, vocal recording, editing, layering, FX, and creative processing techniques
- Translating your music into a compelling live set with Ableton Live
- Applying music theory practically in electronic, cinematic, and contemporary music
Lessons are available online or in-person at my studio in Amsterdam. For online students, I use high-quality real-time tools that allow us to collaborate with full-resolution audio directly from your DAW — no screen sharing limitations, just real work in real time.
My own musical path often started by blending the sounds I encountered in the world, whether from distant rainforests or my own voice , into something personal and expressive.
I found my sound that way, and I’d love to help you find yours.
(And don’t worry — we won’t have to go to the ends of the earth to do it. I’ll show you how to turn the sounds you already have into something truly your own.)
Whether you're just starting out or ready to go deeper, I look forward to helping you grow through structured, creative, and technically grounded electronic music education.

Learn Piano and Improvisation and practice other languages :)The most important matter that I could write here about is my passion to teach. I've been teaching already for more than 10 years, from kids to adults. I'm a classical pianist, but I am opened to other musical styles. What I want you to get from your lessons with me, is not only a huge knowledge of theorical stuff or a great technique, I would like to show you my musical world, the imagination and inner exploration that is required to understand and to love music in a whole new level. Once you have found them, it will be very hard to quit playing!
The class duration: You can choose!
20 minutes (Great for the youngest : 3 years old)
30 minutes (Ideal for young beginners from 4 years old)
45 minutes (Intermediate+ adult beginners)
1 hour (Intermediate and combined with some Music Theory)
I use different methods depending on:
1) The goals of my student
2) The language that we will use on class
3) Age and musical preferences: I start to teach children from 3 years old, we make games and they learn to play through musical stories that I have created throughout my pedagogical career.

Regular piano lessons too difficult? Then try piano lessons with me!In piano lessons, we use the book method of Notus or Hal Leonard.
Everything is explained step by step and you gradually learn to read music and know the piano.
At the start of our lessons we'll take a look at what is important to you. What goals do you want to set, and what feels achievable and comfortable?
We set long-term goals of, for example, a year. Completely tailored to where you are at, right now.
During the lessons I am patient, motivating, encouraging, and complimenting. I'll point out what could be better, and also pay attention to how you can play more easily. And much more. Tailored to your needs and wishes.

Let's talk about music! Musical language, harmony, composition, various analyses, music in its sociocultural context or commented readingsHello! I've been teaching nonstop for over 10 years, and I'd love to tell you what a class with me offers:
100% personalized approach: The first step is to define your goals. Learning for pleasure? Preparing for entrance exams? Or taking the professional leap? I'll adapt the methodology, curriculum, and even the repertoire to your goals.
Dynamic environment (without losing rigor): Relaxed but demanding classes, where practical methods (and my irremediable sense of humor) prevail.
Hearing + Musicality + Analysis: We'll work on listening, understanding, and analyzing your musical references. The goal: for you to make artistic decisions with confidence and feel music as your own.
No stylistic biases: For me, all music is valid. We'll explore everything from classical to electronic, using each style to work on key aspects: melody, harmony, production... We'll even explore genres you're unfamiliar with together!
Important! I balance classes with concerts and projects. Although you're my priority, I appreciate the occasional flexibility to reschedule (only when strictly necessary).
If you like this approach, write to me! Learning music is an exciting journey, and I'd love to be your guide.
