DJing and Music Production Course With Lio - Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced

A partir de 69.32 $ /h

I started making music as an adult. I always had that drive as a kid, but my family could not afford the lessons. Then life kicked in and there was always a good reason not to get into it. Until one day this old dream popped back up, and I stepped into a music store and got my first DJ controller. This completely changed my life, and a few years later I moved to Berlin to start a full course as a music production student. Fast forward a decade or so and I completely changed carreers and deep delved into sound engineering.

Making music is a place of joy and fulfillment. The only regret I have is to have kept myself from doing it for such a long time. DO NOT WAIT, there is a great deal of happiness on the other side.

I have a tried and true method that I tested on dozens of students, both in workshops and one on one sessions. It's designed to let you access the "having fun" parts in the least amount of time. This approach actually makes the learning curve much smoother, and lets you experiment on your own very quickly. Theory becomes more and more relevant as you go and perfect your skills, but I strongly believe that unlocking the joy potential early while building good habits is the key to any learning experience.

Wether you are interested to get into DJing, Music Production or Mix Engineering, wether you are a complete beginner or have started to develop those skills on your own, I can help you streamline the process, avoid the pitfalls, debunk the myths, and accompany as you grow as a musician, regardless of the genres you're into.

Quickly improve your saxophone practice with a simple and effective method.
Develop your sound and your technique.
Learn to play your favorite songs and improvise without any music theory prerequisites.

I am a Belgian composer and performer who plays particularly in jazz, improvisation and world music. I have to my credit several hundreds of concerts, including with my project, a musical ensemble between Burkina Faso and Belgium, taking over my own compositions, and for which I was Winner of the Sabam Awards 2018. Also a musical pedagogue and producer , I am exploring today the multiple links between the image and the musical composition, while giving private lessons and collective workshops.

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 ...

Initiation - beginner - intermediate.

My methodology is flexible and adaptable, depending on the level, needs and desires of the student. The goal for me is above all to combine work / progress and fun.

Overall, I prefer working with children because their energy fascinates me, but I also teach adults!

& for the small presentation:
I am 27 years old, I am a musician and visual artist, I work in associations, in particular in the organization of events such as concerts and electronic music in Brussels.

I am formerly a member of uZinne (Molenbeek) and am currently working on the creation of two new cultural space projects in Forest.

The course can be done at your place or at my place.
We can also provide a sliding scale if we do a group course.

See you soon !

Graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, I studied saxophone, musical training and pedagogy while traveling across Europe (Annecy, Lyon, Zaragoza and Leuven).

In parallel with my studies and my projects / concerts, I have always been keen to transmit my passion by teaching the saxophone and musical training. This practice is for me the place of meetings and unforgettable moments.

My pedagogy adapts to your needs! I take you to the highest level in fun and good humor.

Whether it is for a one-off course or a long-term follow-up, we will work out together your objectives and methods to achieve them. This will allow you to measure your progress in the short and long term.

Sound engineer and producer with 10 years of experience gives lessons in music production, mixing, MAO (Computer Assisted Music), arrangement, sampling, etc.
Always passionate about music, I started writing, recording and mixing my songs more than ten years ago. Today I work in my own home studio, where I help established and beginner artists develop their musical projects. From composition to writing and recording, from arrangement to mixing and mastering, I now master the different stages of musical production and like to put my experience at the service of others.
Specialized in urban music (Hip-Hop, R&B, Pop, Jazz, etc.) but amateur of all genres, the skills taught during the courses are applicable to any type of music and any MAO software.
The courses are accessible to everyone and adapted according to the needs and desires of the person.

With my course, I suggest that you practice, use your ideas to explore the software in a fun way so that at the end of the course, you have understood the different maneuvers carried out and have concretely withdrawn something for your own projects.

I can also go further in explaining the logic to use both at the harmonic and musical level as well as technical (related to the operation of your software or recording and mixing), or advise you so that you can get the best equipment you already have.
Today, it is possible to do wonders with nothing!; no need for high quality and expensive equipment as in the past to obtain pieces worthy of the greatest!

Topics that can be covered:

- Musical composition

- How Ableton Live works

- How to register (vocals, guitars, other instrument)

- Use of samples

We will explore the world of electronic music, starting with the basics of sound synthesis and moving on to multi-channel diffusion in 3D audio.
We will see how the most widely used software in the world of electronics (Max/MSP, Ableton, Reaper) works to build performance environments, where we will be able to use the most popular plugins for signal processing or create our own processing engine.
MIDI protocol configuration for controllers, OSC, construction of small electronic circuits with the help of Arduino.
We will pay attention to the acoustic and psychoacoustic aspects of sound that are fundamental for the correct diffusion and listening of music.
We will also take a look at the main audio recording techniques.
As I am very passionate about this and have the necessary equipment, we will have the opportunity to see analog synthesis up close through the use of modular synthesizers.
