You often spend time behind your computer, sound modules, synths or MIDI devices to create solid beats, a hypnotic groove, dreamy soundscapes or a compelling story. In short, you've been bitten by electronic music. You want to take your sound to a higher level, but you still have questions about the quality of your sound, live performance, synthesizers, music theory, increasing listenership, acoustics, about your software, etc... You've come to the right place address if you have such questions. I would like to help you so that you can achieve your musical goals faster and in an efficient and budget-friendly manner.

What do I offer?
- Lessons on the following Digital Audio Workstations (DAW): Reason Studios, Ableton Live, Reaper, Fruity Loops
- Lessons about sound synthesis (Sound Design) via synthesizers, drum machines and effects
- General guidance/coaching in overcoming the obstacles associated with producing (e.g. knowledge about mixing, mastering, modular setup, music theory, computer/laptop needs, acoustics and psychoacoustics, mental challenges, ...)

Do you have a question or would you like more information?
Feel free to contact me :).

< Learning Piano is not merely about playing the piano >

Before starting to learn the piano, it’s essential to recognize that :

'' What we are actually learning is "Music", but not only "Piano". ''

The goal of learning any instrument is to acquire the language of music, enabling us to express ourselves and enjoy music with others. Playing the piano is for creating beautiful sounds, not really for developing finger speed or strength. That’s the function of gym.

< Music is like cooking >

When we cook, to make roast beef tender, of course, it’s nice to have a tender heart, but without knowing how to control the temperature, the roast beef won’t become tender merely by our tender heart.

By only adding salt, the dish won’t be sweet. Similarly, simply playing or writing a C major triad chord won’t convey a sorrowful feeling.

To create the feeling we want, no matter how much sentiment we have in our hearts, to convey it via music, it needs to be translated into the language which the piano can understand, which means, how we press and lift the keys and pedals. Similarly, when we compose, it needs to be transferred into chords, and notes we write.

< Difference between an audience and a musician >

There is a common belief that a musician can make music with sentiment or feeling. While it’s partially true, the most essential thing is knowing ‘’How’’ to create the sound that conveys the feeling we want, rather than merely knowing ‘’What’' feeling we want to convey.

The understanding of the mechanism behind music is essential, as cooking, and that is the difference between an audience and a musician. As an audience, one can simply feel the music. Like a chief who knows how to create a specific flavor to convey, a musician knows how to create the sound which can convey the feeling we want. While knowing which feeling we want is great, it’s merely the first step. Your emotions are not too different from Chopin, Beethoven, Adele or Taylor Swift, otherwise, they can’t resonate with you. But they know how to create the sound that conveys the feeling they want to their audience.

< Course Content >

I consider my course to be a form of "Music Consultation" because it contains a wide range of subjects that are essential to a professional musician. While we focus on piano playing, there are also music theory, music history, instrument construction, ergonomics for performers, analysis of composer styles, composition, arrangement, recording, MIDI, computer music, the physics of sound, and more.
In avoid of confusion, let’s still call my course as "Piano Course”.

< Duration >

For each course, I will reserve at least 70 minutes in my schedule for you, including 60 minutes of class time and an additional 10 minutes for discussion and any questions you may have. This will ensure that your courses are not rushed by the next student. This ensures that there is enough time for you to solve your piano and music problems.

< Recording >

I highly encourage my students to record their progress. This can provide an objective standard for comparison and help you analyze your playing precisely. In my nine years of experience teaching music, I've found many students, including those advanced, already play certain sections very well, while other sections may not be not well enough. But they still try to improving those fine sections, while not aware of those weak sections.
Without an objective reference, it’s hard to distribute our effort precisely. This can lead to not only unstable performance, but also practicing without a precise goal can easily reduce enthusiasm. Recording your results and comparing them with those recordings you like on YouTube or Spotify can be an effective way to analyze your playing and set precise goals.

If you have a digital piano, I can help you produce a video of your performance for each session. This can be a tangible record of your efforts and you can share it with your friends and family via YouTube or other platforms.

From connection to production through and configuration and until the final result is obtained on social networks or music platforms, you will learn all the intermediate steps to spread your creativity in the connected world.

With specific expertise on Apple Logic Proc X and Ableton Live, the same principles are valid on any DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) as well as on the configuration that is specific to you.

I also advise you on the hardware (physical hardware / software) to buy according to your specific needs.

This applies to anyone without age barrier, as long as the will and passion is there ...

Do you want to learn how to compose, mix or finalize your tracks with real sound?
Are you looking for someone who can explain things clearly, listen to you, encourage you and help you move forward without going around in circles?
Welcome.

My name is Tom and for 10 years I have been helping artists and enthusiasts create their music, better use their tools (Ableton, Reaper, Logic, etc.) and, above all, find their own sound.

· A clear, personalized method, at your own pace
· Solid foundations if you are a beginner (handling, composition, arrangements, etc.)
· Mixing and mastering courses
· Tools to unlock your creativity
· And an artistic eye to help you achieve your vision
Whether you are a complete beginner, with no knowledge of computer music or music, I will guide you step by step so that you quickly feel comfortable with the tools and can create your first pieces.

If you're self-taught, you may have already accumulated a lot of knowledge, but in a somewhat disorganized way: together, we'll structure all of that, clarify your basics and solidify your approach.
And if you are an artist already on the path, with projects or a vision under construction, I help you refine your universe, professionalize your sound, and go further in your artistic direction.

Do you want to produce your tracks without getting lost in the technical details? I'll teach you Cubase and DAW software the way I learned it myself: without music theory, but with method and creativity.

The goal is not to apply formulas, but to develop a working method adapted to each project. This may involve analyzing a piece in progress, resolving technical or creative blocks, optimizing sound, or even organizing a Cubase session.

I offer concrete tools, attentive listening, and precise support to move your musical project forward in the right direction.

About the course:

Composition & Arrangement
Musical structure & storytelling: learning to build solid and coherent pieces (intro, bridges, choruses, etc.).

Creating guitar riffs and harmonies: rhythmic, melodic and stylistic work according to your level.

Text writing & vocal placement: rhythm, phrasing, accuracy of intentions.

Organization in the DAW (Cubase): clear structure, tempo, grids, dynamics.

Art direction & atmospheres: defining a unique and coherent sound universe, from the riff to the background texture.

Pre-production & Sound Design
Effective session preparation: choice of tools, sounds, project organization.

Custom guitar/bass sound creation: virtual amps, IRs, custom effects chains.

Modern recording techniques: layering, harmonies, double-tracking, multiple takes.

Sound sculpture & textures: asserting the personality of each instrument.

Integration of atmospheres and textures: cinematic, orchestral or electronic textures.

Advanced sound design: modulations, automation, unconventional effects.

Recording & Editing
Effective voice recording: artistic direction, placement, interpretation.

Fast & clean editing: assembly, alignment, natural corrections.

Collaboration & Communication
Knowing how to work with other musicians: conveying ideas, communicating with a mixer or sound engineer, maintaining an overall vision.

Mixing & Finalization
Clear and productive session organization: routing, buses, colors, naming.

Using the main mixing tools:

Compression: dynamic management

EQ: Frequency balance

Delay & Reverb: space and depth

Limiting: level control

Special FX (ring mods, filters, etc.): to go further with the texture

Export preparation: stereo, stems, separate tracks, formats suitable for mixing or mastering.

In summary
The goal is not to follow a fixed method, but to make concrete progress on a real musical project, regardless of the starting level.
The idea is to start with a desire, a sound, a riff, a feeling... and turn it into a solid, inspired, controlled piece.

This is what I have been doing for twenty years, and what I pass on here with rigor.

Online lessons are available. Cubase is recommended but not required. You can work with other DAWs or directly with stems/audio files as needed.
