BECOME A PROFESSIONAL PRODUCER or DJ of electronic music (production, arrangement, mixing) ABLETON LIVE, TRAKTOR PRO (software not mandatory)

From 60 € /h

Hi,

I am an artist, producer and DJ, specializing solely in electronic music and groove creation.

I have been producing electronic music professionally since 2006 and have several releases on independent labels to my credit.

My NLH project, which started in 2023, was selected in 2025 as a finalist in a European music competition in the DJ Producer category (Tour Music Fest).

I have also collaborated with several internationally renowned artists, notably Samuel L. Session, who remixed one of my tracks in 2024.

With 15 years of experience in music production, I offer to help you master the many features of Ableton Live software (regardless of version) in order to either develop your skills or start your first project and even help you find your sonic identity.

Similarly for DJing, I can teach you how to train your ears so that they can beatmatch tracks without using modern tools (SYNC, LOOP etc.).

Being patient, extroverted and a good listener, I will be there to guide you step by step in your musical creations or to explain professional methods for quickly setting up your sounds.

You do not need to own Ableton Live software, or even Traktor Pro, nor even know music theory, but you must have at least a PC or a MAC.

The goal is to finalize your own track, whether in terms of production, arrangement, understanding the basics of mixing, or, as a DJ, being able to understand rhythms and tempos.

See you very soon for more wonderful musical adventures.

Extra information

No equipment or software is required for the lessons. I travel by car.

Do you have ideas in your head but you still haven't taken the plunge? Whether you are a novice or an experienced musician, I suggest you dive into production with a tailor-made course on Ableton Live software.

What you can expect:

For beginners :

Examples of topics covered:

- Recording: I will explain to you how I go about properly recording voices or instruments while optimizing the acoustics of your room.
- Composition: learning to use virtual instruments, introduction to sound design and exploration of creative composition techniques (no music theory necessary).
- Arrangement: effectively structure a piece like the pros to avoid redundancy.

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.
