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).

Here is what I propose

Introduction to sound theory (physical and digital bases)
initiation into music theory and music theory,

How to create your home studio? What material? Where to start?

Mixing and arrangement, register, harmonics.
effects and plugins (filters, delay, echo, chorus, flanger, phaser, bitcrusher, saturation, stepper, ...).
Broadcasting platforms: aggregators, streaming, bandcamp, SoundCloud ... which one to choose?

If you are a beginner of advanced drummer or you need help with a song of your favourite band, i'm here to help you out!
I teach drums to students of any level.
Also every age (kids and adults) and in every style.
In the classroom we have 2 drumsets available and a PA system to play along with music. You just need to bring earplugs.

I myself studied at the School Of Arts in Ghent.

I can also provide you lots of info about tuning, drumheads, and drumkits (acoustic and electronic)

With 27 years experience and success as a qualified Music teacher (PGCE), I specialise in giving high quality, structured lessons on the piano, violin and guitar that are tailored to each student and which are designed to offer attainable goals as well as being enjoyable and fun for the student. The key and essence of my lessons is for the student to always enjoy learning as much as I enjoy nurturing, guiding and helping the student to improve.

I have a history of successful exam results in all of the Associated Board Exam colleges as well as with Trinity Rock School. I am happy to offer lessons for students who wish to learn for enjoyment as much as to pass exams .

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.

I have been a passionate musician and producer for over 10 years (trained guitarist), and I am here to help you discover and master all the subtleties of Ableton.

Who should attend :

- You are a beginner and you want to discover the interface while composing your first song.
- You are an intermediate or experienced user and would like to perfect your skills and learn more advanced techniques.

What you can expect:

For beginners :
> Discovery of the Ableton Live interface while creating your first composition
> Practical approach without theoretical overload
> Optimization of the course according to your objective and your musical desires
> Provision of resources (packs, templates, presets, etc.)

For Intermediate and Advanced Users:
> In-depth analysis of your compositions with personalized feedback
> Fixed weaknesses and improved existing songs
> Exploring new production techniques, sharing tips, shortcuts and templates
> Section on sampling, sound design and mixing

Examples of topics covered:

- Interface: you will learn how to navigate between Audio and MIDI, use the right tools/plugins, create templates and use essential shortcuts.
- 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.
- Mixing: control of effects, integration of external plugins, mixing techniques.

Adaptability: depending on your progress, your motivations and your musical preferences, I continually adjust the course to target the specific aspects that you wish to explore or strengthen.

If you're interested, send me a message and I'll answer all your questions :)

Violin is one of the most beautiful instruments in music. I teach you how to play it, how to recognize and reproduce melodies only by hearing and also teach you playing after partitions.... I will teach you a wide range of music and techniques depending on what your preferences are. My courses are structured as follow: each hour you will start with chords/ than technique exercise ( left & right hand) / working on a piece of music that corresponds to the level you want to reach next / blind hearing test to learn your ears to recognize sounds / and re-working a piece of music ...
About me : I am originairy from Berlin, I started at the age of 5, radio award in classics? I play both : classic and electric violin, I am a professional violinist. I play classics, deep house, rock , jazz ... and work as a Solist and in several bands And I would be happy to teach you

The trumpet is a wonderful instrument. I therefore propose to initiate those who would be interested as well as to help people who are already familiar with this instrument. I've been playing this instrument for 14 years, 10 of which in a conservatory, and I never got tired of it.

My way of teaching is mainly based on the management of one's breath and the development of one's musical ear, with breathing exercises, listening, technique etc.
Thus, my method is just as suitable for young children who want to learn this instrument, as for older people.

My goal is to advance the student without discouraging or overloading with work. That the desire to learn continues.

In support, I can lend manuals and sheet music (although I strongly recommend having your own) as well as teach music reading.

I teach everything related to electronic music, both theoretically and practically: DJing, digital and analog production, audio recording, mixing, compositing, etc.
My classes are tailored to each individual's needs and expectations. In addition to video lessons, I can also host classes directly in my studio to practice directly on my equipment (mixing desk, vinyl turntables, synthesizer, modular, drum machine, effects machine, piano, etc.). For those who live in Brussels,
I can also come to your home if you prefer.
