Level up your music production skills fast. I've been making electronic music in Ableton for over 10 years, and have released with US-based labels and DJ'ed at festivals and clubs across the US. I trained at Clive Davis instutute at NYU, Berklee School of Music, and I will gladly pass along my knowledge and techniques to you. I've taught one-on-one lessons for years, it's always a lot of fun, and I tailor lessons to my students' skill level and goals. Whether you're a beginner or intermediate music artist looking to level up a certain area, I can help. Common lesson topics include: Intro to Ableton Sample-based music production Sound design (bass, house, club music, etc) Mixing Fundamentals

With over 15 years of experience as a teacher at Albeda and the Rockacademie, and my background as a professional musician, producer, and songwriter, I want to use my knowledge and experience specifically to help aspiring music makers on their way. My lessons are intended for anyone who wants to learn to make music themselves, even without any prior knowledge. Together, we discover the basics of music production, including beatmaking, recording, arranging, sound design, and mixing, using programs such as Ableton Live and Logic Pro. With my background in Hip-Hop, Soul, Funk, and Jazz, I combine technical knowledge with creativity and musicality. The lessons are practical, relaxed, and tailored to your level, interests, and learning goals. My focus is not only on learning to work with music software, but primarily on developing your own sound and turning musical ideas into complete tracks. You don't need any experience, just curiosity, creativity, and a love for making music!

This workshop is designed for people who are intrigued by Electronic Music at beginner’s level. The contents and approach of this Workshop are, overall, not too technical yet, and rather more directed to enlighten curious learners about the potential career opportunities in the music scene. If you are considering following your dream of becoming an electronic music artist, but are not sure how to start, this Workshop is for you! Divided in 3 sessions, it proposes a raw and honest dive into the key factors and tools to consider when contemplating an artistic career in the electronic music scene. It starts by making a recap on Electronic music’s history, the main agents in the scene, and the importance of the various roles within this ecosystem. Chapter 1 (first session) also oversees the main differences between a DJ, a Music Producer and a Live act performer, their distinct practices, examples of the gear they use, and the unique daily dynamics they face. In the second chapter (session 2), it zooms in on what is needed to get started in Music Production (beginner level). Besides some tools and relevant concepts on this matter, session 2 will explore a DAW (music production software), and go through the basics of how to use it to start the first song. If the session is provided IRL, some electronic music machines will be available onsite to touch, to play and to record using Ableton Live Suite 11. The public will be invited to touch the mixer and get a feeling of what each button does; will have the chance to interact with the machines, eventually record their own composition, and understand how to start a basic structure of a song on Ableton. In case session 2 is provided URL, students may use their own gear at home in case they have it; if not, they can simply follow the flow as we do some exercises sharing the screen live. We will not dive too deep into mixing techniques here yet, nor will we finish the workshop with everything figured out - which would be confusing for beginner level. We will rather explain, in a nutshel what it means to be an artist in this scene, how to start making music, and which tools exist. The Workshop finishes on session 3 with a few exercises and practical tools, but also an uplifting reflection, meant to empower the visitor pursue their own path: “Which one of these activities resonates more with my unique personality?" "Now that I have a clue on the work that each one of them imply, which one is the best for me to step forward, and eventually kickstart my own career?" "How can I positively contribute to this ecosystem, and creatively feed into it?” "What should I buy in order to start my own, personal music path?" If you’re fond of electronic music, and willing to contribute to it - but not sure where to start from -, this Introduction to Electronic Music Workshop is for you. Everyone is welcome. Women (cis and non-cis), FLINTA and LGBTQA+ individuals are particularly encouraged to join. Expect an informal, safe environment where playfulness and vulnerability are cherished, where community exchange and collective learning make space for fun and growth.

Learn Ableton Live and music production through practical, project-based one-on-one lessons built around the music you actually want to make. We can work directly on your own tracks, recordings, arrangements or specific problems you want to solve. Depending on your level and goals, lessons can cover Ableton Live workflow, MIDI and audio editing, recording, synthesis, sampling, sound design, arrangement, mixing, effects, automation and developing a track from an initial idea to a finished piece of music. As a professional composer with a Master's degree in Composition and seven years of teaching experience, I can also help with composition, harmony, melody, rhythm, orchestration and music theory whenever these are useful to your production. I teach complete beginners as well as experienced producers who want to improve their workflow, develop their musical ideas, solve technical problems or receive detailed professional feedback on their work. There is no rigid curriculum. We identify what you want to achieve and build the lessons around your projects and goals.

For me, lessons are not about rushing through theory or trying to sound “correct” as quickly as possible. They’re about finding what excites you, understanding the music you already love, and building the skills to play, create, and express yourself with confidence. Lessons can focus on one area or combine things naturally — for example, learning guitar while writing your own songs, or using Ableton to develop an idea into a full arrangement. My goal is to keep music curious, practical, and enjoyable, and to help each student find their own way into it.
