This course is intended for those who wish to start their own productions in computer music (Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Music Maker, GarageBand, Reaper ...), and who do not know where to start, or those who are looking for new techniques of production or would like to improve their sound.
Graduated in musicology, composer, beatmaker, lyric singer and multi-instrumentalist, my approach encompasses many aspects that are rooted in the diversity of my musical experiences. I worked as a singer on classical and variety projects (Midi Minimes, Festival van Vlaanderen, Ensemble Astoria, Josh Groban) and as a producer and composer on contemporary dance shows (Kaaistudio, STUK, CC Berchem, M-Museum Leuven) . I also participated in a series of multichannel projects (Mixage Fou, 3DSound MONOM, Berlin, BACAtelier Leuven). I'm also currently collaborating on pop, variety, synthwave, trip-pop, world bass projects. I was also able to work on sound to image projects (Video, Performance, VJ / Mapping).

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
True passionate of the sound, musician since more than fifteen years, my musical education began very early. After my training in solfeggio, saxophone and singing, I began studying musicology to deepen my knowledge of music. At the end of my studies, I trained in electronic music.
My tastes and inspirations are as much towards the classical as the experimental music, techno, hip hop, dubstep, edm, ... I was able to develop my knowledge in these registers by keeping an open mind. With an excellent ear, I can help you dissect your favorite songs, and provide you with the keys to become excellent musicians and gain independence in the field.

Music production/film music: are you tired of constantly watching YouTube videos just to get an insight into music production?
Are you tired of constantly watching YouTube videos just to gain insight into music production? Then your search is over. I offer you personalized private courses that show you which steps are necessary from the idea to the finished piece. Thanks to my studies in music production in Berlin (B.A) and years of experience as a musician and composer, I can show you in a professional but also very entertaining way which steps are necessary from the idea to the finished song. I would be happy to make all of my knowledge available to you. I invite you to my studio, where I mainly work with Logic. A large selection of well-known plugins and hardware complement my setup. We will be happy to see each other either via Zoom or, if you live near Torrevieja (Alicante), in my studio. Let's develop a piece of music for a short film scene. From the idea to the finished product and then we mix and master it too. However, if you are only interested in individual modules, we will create a study plan tailored to your needs. Students who speak English or German are well suited. But I also speak some Spanish and can therefore help you in Spanish as well.

Composing Music using computer software (any genre)
Composing your own music has always been a very rewarding task. This has never been so true as the present day when you can hear what you compose instantly by using computers to generate and play back your own music. However, to ensure that your music sounds really great there are many principles to be considered. I have had a great interest in composing for over 40 years, composing in a wide variety of styles. Having been a music teacher in a comprehensive school for over 30 years, I have had a lot of very relevant experience in teaching composition to a wide range of different ages and abilities. The class will be personalized to your particular standard and chosen style of composition. If you are a complete novice and have not used computers to create music we can use a web-based programme or a free downloadable programme. On the other hand, if you are familiar with a particular programme that you have installed on your computer we can work through screen sharing and sound sharing to enhance your compositions using my experience. I will tailor-make the class to suit you.
