What our students are saying:
• In 8 weeks I’ve come out of the dinosaur “2-technics-and-mixer-era” to learning how to make music and perform live sets on a laptop — Andre
• 8 weeks underneath the horse blanket of electronic music, sweating and hurting, catching breath where one can. Besides that, mind-opening stuff, very exciting, so very worthwhile — Paul
• Interesting, informative, and toatlly worth the time. I Never knew I could get to grips with Ableton in 8 weeks like I have — Jean
• The amount of knowledge crammed into such a short amount of time is amazing. Everything that I have been playing around with for years (without knowing what I was doing!) makes so much sense now. I even listen to music compltely differenetly now. Your way of teaching is unique and very effective. I’m so glad I did this course, It’s very inspirational! — Anon
