Présentation

Hi, my name is Lih and I have been playing cello for over 40 years! With a background in classical music - my career has taken me to stages all over the world.
Cello/loopstation work

As a performer, I've been a cellist who has been sought after for her Loop station cello performances. I use various pedals and effects to create pieces that explore the full vocal and percussive range of the cello, combining intricately shifting textures, cinematic orchestration with soundscape. I work with a large palette that shifts effortlessly between modern classical, krautrock, sonic environment and electronica. I've created and performed live soundtracks for dance theatre and new circus productions, and toured all over the world, playing venues such as The Barbican ( London), Queens Hall Southbank (London), Apollo Theatre (London) Stanisklavsky Theatre for Bolshoi Danceinversion festival ( Moscow), La Philharmonie and La Seine Musicale (Paris), Zorlu Arts Centre (Istanbul), SESC theatre (Sao Paulo), and working with the famous choreographer Yan Li Ping to create the Chinese/Berlin fusion opera ‘Dynamic Huang Shang’.

I also toured internationally with bands such as Agnes Obel, Raz O’hara, Die Wilde Jagd and Federico Albanese.

I am a music producer and film score composer from London living in Berlin. I currently tutor privately and teach at the EMS - Electronic Music School Berlin. I have taught everyone from complete beginners with no music theory knowledge, to experienced DJ's trying to up their game. I am currently preparing to teach a masterclass at my school that will cover advanced mixing, mastering and sound design.

I work in Ableton and I have made or engineered everything from industrial techno to dubstep, acid rock to pop. As such, I am extremely flexible and can focus exclusively on what you are aiming to learn, regardless of what genre or subgenre you want to make. My approach is dynamic and changes depending on every student, but my aim is the same across all levels and types: to get you to love music production.

For the beginners:
-How to start your track
-How to make more than just loops
-Sampling
-Sound synthesis
-Basic beat creation
-Mixing
-Use of effects
-Plugins
-Marketing
-Mastering

For the intermediate to advanced students:
-Multiband mixing tools
-Advanced Mastering
-Using sends as mixing tools
-Advanced sound synthesis
-Advanced social media marketing

More about me: I have worked in the music production field for the last 10 years. I have a recording engineering certificate from UCLA in California. I have scored two award winning short films, and am currently signed to Subsoul Recordings. My personal tracks have reached around 300,000 plays. I currently manage a deep house producer signed to Crosswalk Records.

I'm a music teacher( flutist, pianist) that graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels (Classical Music).
I teach flute or piano lessons to students of all age and level.
Moreover, I have always loved different genres of music, so if you are interested in pop music, I am up for that too!

To share my passion for music is the best feeling, I love to teach students how to play their instruments and express their emotions and musicality.

I don't have the same program for all my students, as I think every student is different, learns differently, has different interests...etc.
I learn to understand my students, get to know them, and work with them based off of those aspects.

The hours are designed according to your musical interests. Since each person has his or her own individual approach to music, it is logical and, in my experience, more effective to work with this in a specific way. So, instead of a rigid curriculum in which you lose interest in a short time, I would like to support you in achieving your personal plans and discovering musical possibilities!

Depending on your interests, motivation, previous knowledge and musical taste, the following focal points are coordinated:
Technique (tone formation, breathing, approach, intonation, finger technique, etc.), ear training, sense of rhythm, improvisation, note reading, music theory.

The focus is all about enjoying the music. Its naver late to learn.

This class is for all music enthusiasts, whether you’re just getting started and need a solid foundation or already experienced and looking to level up.
I’m a DJ and music production instructor with 15 years of experience, founder and instructor at DJ School Berlin. I also run my own label and organize events.
My classes take place in a relaxed, intimate atmosphere, and are fully focused on your needs and goals. I teach both fundamental concepts and creative techniques, while supporting you in the development of your artistic project

I also compose music for media (trailers, films, ads, games, etc) and perform live focusing on sound exploration and experimental performance.
This means we can absolutely work on different musical genres or more unconventional, creative approaches.

Passionate about dancefloor energy, it’s behind the decks and my machines that I feel most alive — and I truly love passing that on.
I perform regularly in Berlin in clubs such as Watergate, Sisyphos, Hoppetosse, RSO, Golden Gate, etc., as well as abroad, most recently in Belgrade, London, Amsterdam, Paris, etc.

Having worked in an artist management agency (Talent Scoot), I bring an added layer to the sessions — connecting technical skills with artistic vision, and helping you shape and push your artistic project forward

Courses are available in English or French

Sessions usually last 2 hours and can take place face-to-face or online, solo or in a group.

. Group sessions (1-3) are friendly, less expensive, and more dynamic in terms of learning. Observing another student practicing, discussing techniques, or receiving feedback often leads to valuable insights.
. One-on-one lessons are ideal if you prefer a personalised and efficient approach, fully adapted to your pace and goals.

I'll give you the keys to:
- Master the fundamentals of DJing on CDJs or vinyl
- Develop your own sound and mixing style
- Configure and fine-tune your DJ software (Rekordbox, Traktor)
- Perfect beatmatching, phrasing, and harmonic mixing
- Create smooth transitions and dynamic cuts for engaging sets
- Understand track selection and crowd reading to build energy
- Discover new music (digging) and organize your library efficiently
- Prepare your sets and tracklists for gigs or recordings
- Learn to record, edit, and share your mixes and podcasts
- Understand sound systems and performance setups for live events

I'll also accompany you and advise you on the purchase of your equipment.

Classes take place either in my studio in Kreuzberg, equipped with 2 CDJs, 2 vinyl decks, a professional mixer, and a full sound system, or online with a new technic I developed for a immersive learning experience. Sessions are followed by review sheets and homework assignments.
They are a mix of theory and practice, covering not just technical skills but also the artistic and performance aspects of DJing, with plenty of pro tips and creative insights to help you build your identity as a DJ.

Don't hesitate to contact me for more information, I can send you a detailed document explaining all aspects of the training, the techniques covered, as well as the essential theoretical knowledge. You'll develop a complete understanding of the material, learn how to tell your musical story, create, record, finish, export and share your work.

I am looking forward to playing music with you.
