Audio Recording and Production 101: Help Me Obi Wan!

So, you want to learn how to producer, engineer, mix, and master audio, eh? Awesome! I can teach you any DAW you want to learn, including Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Cubase, Garageband, and Logic Pro, in easy to understand, simple steps. I know that when you open recording software for the first time, it can feel like looking at the controls for a spaceship; how can you ever hope to understand all these numbers, colors and controls?? It feels overwhelming. Don't worry though, it's not as hard as it looks! In fact, it's so intuitive that I guarantee you will engineer your first drum track the very first time we work together!!

My name is Panagiotis and I am a guitar teacher/player. I have two bachelor degrees: Classical Guitar (Philippos Nakas Conservatory), Jazz&Pop Guitar (HKU Utrecht Conservatory). I have been teaching in music schools and giving individual lessons for the last 14 years. In 2017 I moved to Utrecht to continue my studies in jazz guitar at the Utrecht Conservatory and explore the Dutch music scene.I teach electric, acoustic, classical guitar and music theory. Besides the basic technique and theory knowledge, which Ι make sure to provide to each of my students , I individually prepare their study line, according to their taste and abilities. My goal is to help my students to find their own musicality and reveal their inner voice by giving them the most appropriate tools. Besides teaching I have two bands which I give lots of concerts with , at several venues and festivals.

Teis

My name is Teis. I am a Danish guitarist trained in Jazz music at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and USC Thornton School of Music (Los Angeles). I have played since age 7, studied since age 13, and played professionally since age 18.

I work professionally as a band leader, composer, and side person.

After around 25 years of experience on the guitar, I can confidently say that I am equipped to share the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years.

In all honesty: I have never found myself to be particularly "talented". But I am a hard worker. I truly believe that talent is not something you are born with, but something you can develop and grow.

Together we will explore secrets and tips for a healthy guitar routine. We will improve your technique and ear training abilities with direct and fun exercises.

Whether you are just a beginner or an intermediate/advanced guitarist, we can explore the instrument and all its possibilities.

Practicing and playing with a teacher in a one-on-one situation is the most effective way to get better faster, and I advise it to all the guitar and music lovers out there.

In my guitar course, we start from where you are at and set a goal fitting to what you want to achieve. For example, our focus could be a.o.:

Fingerpicking
Soloing
Accompanying yourself
Songwriting

Two ways to go about it;

Single lesson: We go from where you are at the moment, and I help you move forward.

5 or 10 lesson bundle: I will make a detailed plan for you and we will conclude the lessons with a performance of some sort. I will help you elevate and broaden your skill set, in your preferred style, but also ear training and theory. We will build a sustainable practice routine together, and you will get access to a library of practice play-alongs and manuals, that you can use to build a solid platform as a musician!

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hey peeps!
I love to give guitar lessons in a relaxed mood that will not put pressure on you, only giving you feedbacks that will improve your practice. The first lessons will generally consist of covering the basics by learning simple songs. Depending on how it goes, we will go straight into learning songs that you want to play, where you will learn even more!
I can teach you how to play across several appointments during the week so you'll learn faster and enjoy playing straight from the beginning :)

Keep growing ♥️

Dear music lover,

My name is Eric and I have been giving guitar lessons in Amsterdam for many years now! I do this on both acoustic and electric guitar. And in various genres: from pop to rock, from blues to funk.

The starting point during my lessons is the music that my students like to play. So no boring scales with me, but songs that you choose yourself.
In addition, I work on a broad basic technique that is necessary to master the guitar in the right way. Experience has shown that many students can play quite a few songs themselves within a few months. Age and/or experience doesn't matter, my youngest student is 7 years old and the oldest almost 70.

If you are interested in taking a lesson (or several of course :-) or if you have any questions you would like to ask, you can always send me a message and I will contact you. I like to hear from you!

Regards, Eric

The way I teach actually depends entirely on the student. The way I explain the concepts, plan and structure the lessons and approach each subject all depends on whether the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced, and whether he or she has some experience on the subject.

Each student has different needs and different abilities. It's just a matter of getting to know the student, in order to identify both the weaknesses and strengths on which to work.

Does it happen to you too?

You're listening to the music and... You Just Can't Take your Focus Off the lower tones, the foundation of the song, The Bass.

Let me tell you something: if you do that it means that...

You're already Learning!

Whether you're listening to pop, rock, r'n'b, jazz, blues, you name it, the Bass is always there to work as the foundation on which the Band can build on.

I can guide your curiosity through the discovery of the various bass techniques, we can work together using the music of the artists you love to walk our way in the realm of the Low Tones.

Didn't you always want to meet up with those friends of yours and play those songs you all love?

That amazing bass riff from Muse, that lovely song from Coldplay or super cool funky Bruno Mars.

Or maybe you dream of the warm cuddly sound of the double bass, playing with the bow and feel the vibration of the Wood. Playing some Jazz, along with Miles Davis or Wayne Shorter.

With almost 20 years of experience in the low tones world I can guide you in the study of electric bass and double bass.
I'm an active performer and touring musician, as well as a master graduated Bass player. (Conservatorium van Amsterdam)

We will work together to find what best suites you.

Through the music that you love we'll find the right path to discover the world of the Bass.

P.S.: (For fearless only) I will teach also the secret art of: “Riding a bike while carrying your bass without getting killed”.

Bass guitar lessons in Amsterdam or Online! During the lessons, special attention is paid to timing, teamwork and technique. Many different music styles are discussed and hearing training and music theory are also discussed, and of course there is room for your own questions. Lessons for all ages from 5 years, for beginners but also for advanced players or adults who want to start with this fantastic instrument at a later age.

Music is a peaceful zone you can get yourself into.
If you are 8 years old or 88 years old the feeling is similar.
My job is to take you to that special place one way or another.

I have 12 years of experience in guitar teaching.
From children to elderly people.
Graduated from the Athens National Conservatory and the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.
My range spans from advanced classical guitar pieces to simple pop songs.
For me the goal is the same, to enjoy yourself.
And if we learn some stuff along the way that's even better.
Not everyone's goals are the same.
I'm here to adapt to whatever you want to learn during your lesson and at the same time I also have my suggestions and propositions for moving forward

For any questions you might have I'm here to help.

I want to base my lessons on playing the guitar and related instruments in a way that feels mastered and personal.

I therefore want to focus on expression, technique and the aurally malleable nature of the instrument, for example by discussing extended techniques and the use of effect pedals. I want to invite the students to learn to listen carefully to the impact of different playing techniques and audio effects.

During the lessons I want to cover different kinds of music theory, especially in an "applied" way that is valuable to the student. I also want to deal with recording and producing my own work.

Owning your own effects pedals, a guitar amplifier or recording equipment is not required for this course.

My name is Jim, I am a singer and musician. I won "The Voice of Holland"(RTL) in 2019, in 2021 I graduated from the Amsterdam Conservatory and in 2022 I won "Better than Ever"(RTL)

I completed my conservatory training in Jazz Singing at the CvA, but I have worked in many other genres in recent years. I also studied guitar at the Conservatory and obtained my propaedeutic diploma there, after which I switched to singing at the Conservatory. .

In class we focus on what you want. I can teach you everything about singing, guitar, but also about music theory, song-writing, and playing other instruments such as bass guitar, piano and drums.
I teach everyone, from beginners to people who want to prepare for the entrance exam to the Conservatory.
You choose the genre! I have experience in almost all genres so we can focus on the music you like.

I have 12 years of experience in performing and have performed with the Metropool Orchestra, played at festivals such as Concert at Sea and performed in hundreds of theaters and stages across the country. I also have experience with recording albums and songwriting.

I teach in my studio where all the instruments are present and where we can also record things as practice.
Depending on your location, I also teach at home.

From 2024 I will start teaching, something I have always enjoyed but have never been able to do full-time. The process of learning has always intrigued me and I have a lot of desire and energy to embark on this adventure.

Maybe see you soon,

Jim

Learn guitar with me! I'm an experienced educator and a musician that has struggled himself with learning music, and working on the field. We can work from any level that you might be and make music and guitar learning fun and interesting! As a working musician for many years I have experience in a lot of music genres and styles, so I think we can explore anything that you're interested in, in a very deep and detailed level!

My lessons are all about discovering, developing and most of all having fun with music. Whether you play guitar or bass—beginner or advanced—I will help you find your own sound and take your playing to the next level.

We work on technique, timing, hearing, improvisation and expression, but always in a way that suits your musical interests. Do you want to get better at groove, learn to solo, write your own songs or record your tracks in Logic Pro X? It's all possible. I tailor the lesson to your goals and give you practical tools that you can apply immediately.

As an active musician (in three bands), producer and graduate of the Conservatory of Amsterdam, I will take you into the world of music practice—from rehearsal space to studio and stage.

My classes are informal, personal and motivating. You don't have to be perfect—as long as you are curious and eager to learn, we will make great strides together.

Teaching songs you don't really like is a no-go for me. I'll help you figure out which 'classics' are there to practice on and I'll give advice about technique and timing etc.. Also, if you're really curious, I can teach you some music theory. My general goal is to get you hooked to playing. When bored, grab your guitar, not your phone!

Have you always wanted to learn to play guitar, but are unsure if it's right for you? Or are you a beginner looking to develop your skills? My lessons are perfectly tailored to your level and goals.

During the lessons, we'll work on a balanced combination of technique and music theory. We'll play songs together on the guitar, while simultaneously gaining insight into their musical structure.

Once you have developed sufficient basic knowledge, we can move on to writing your own music and exploring improvisation.

In addition, I have references from previous students, so you get a clear idea of my approach and teaching quality.
