Learn The Craft Of Electronic Music Production - Beginner To Advanced (Ableton)

I am a music producer and film score composer from London living in Berlin. I currently tutor privately and teach at the EMS - Electronic Music School Berlin. I have taught everyone from complete beginners with no music theory knowledge, to experienced DJ's trying to up their game. I am currently preparing to teach a masterclass at my school that will cover advanced mixing, mastering and sound design.

I work in Ableton and I have made or engineered everything from industrial techno to dubstep, acid rock to pop. As such, I am extremely flexible and can focus exclusively on what you are aiming to learn, regardless of what genre or subgenre you want to make. My approach is dynamic and changes depending on every student, but my aim is the same across all levels and types: to get you to love music production.

For the beginners:
-How to start your track
-How to make more than just loops
-Sampling
-Sound synthesis
-Basic beat creation
-Mixing
-Use of effects
-Plugins
-Marketing
-Mastering

For the intermediate to advanced students:
-Multiband mixing tools
-Advanced Mastering
-Using sends as mixing tools
-Advanced sound synthesis
-Advanced social media marketing

More about me: I have worked in the music production field for the last 10 years. I have a recording engineering certificate from UCLA in California. I have scored two award winning short films, and am currently signed to Subsoul Recordings. My personal tracks have reached around 300,000 plays. I currently manage a deep house producer signed to Crosswalk Records.

About Me

I am a 24 year old who just moved to Berlin from Los Angeles last year. I graduated from university in LA after moving there from London. My parents are French and Italian, and I was born in New York - I have an international identity, and this gives me an edge with teaching: being from so many places, I am able to understand all perspectives, which helps me communicate efficiently and effectively with students.

Education

University of California Los Angeles, Communications Major, Music Industry and Film Minor. Cum Laude Honors
3 x A* at A-Level in English, French and Italian
6 A* + 3 A GCSE Level

Experience / Qualifications

3 years tutoring music production privately, and one year teaching in a school. I used to live in Los Angeles, where I started teaching privately, then once I moved here I started teaching at the EMS - Electronic Music School Berlin. I teach one-on-ones (from beginner to advanced) and have taught classes of up to 8 people in various subjects (ranging from beginner to advanced). I have prepared a 2 month masterclass to students on advanced music production (mixing, mastering and sound design), as well as a 3 month class on social media and streaming marketing.

Federico
Piano Lessons, Composition, Harmony and Improvisation
Studying music requires developing various skills and techniques, such as practicing an instrument, understanding harmony, or reading sheet music. The piano is one of the few instruments that allows you to work on these aspects—and many more—all at the same time! My name is Federico, and I am a jazz pianist. With me, you can explore the endless possibilities the piano has to offer, focusing on any topic you wish to delve into and any musical genre that resonates with you. Together, we’ll work on instrument mastery, sheet music reading, chord construction, improvisation, composition, and arrangement. And that’s just the beginning! I’d be thrilled to create a personalized lesson plan tailored to your interests and musical tastes, whether it’s mastering a song you love or refining one of your own original compositions!

Julian
Music Producer with Bachelor's Degree in Audio Design Offering Classes in Music Production
I work step by step, guiding you through the various phases of music production—from idea to finished track. My focus is on ensuring you understand each aspect and can apply it directly. Whether you're just starting out or refining your skills, the classes offer a structured approach that builds long-term progress. In the first lesson, we’ll discuss your goals and current level of knowledge. We'll then tackle the specific technical challenges in your production process. I’ll help you develop a workflow that’s adaptable and can be continuously refined for future projects. My strength as a teacher is in my systemic thinking—keeping an eye on both details and the broader production process. Whether you're a beginner seeking orientation or an experienced producer looking to master the complexities of production, I provide the tools and insights needed to improve. Having experienced many of the common hurdles myself, I know how to guide you through them with patience and a clear focus on progress. These lessons are for anyone who wants to gain a deep understanding of music production. Whether you're aiming for a comprehensive, long-term journey or just want to get a solid introduction to the process, I offer methods that are engaging and motivating for both beginners and advanced learners.

Improvisation for beginners and intermediates (any instrument)
For many people improvisation is a scary word and having to improvise in a group or band is an alarming prospect. However, this really does not need to be the case. As long as you have a basic knowledge of how to play your instrument you will be able to improvise. Once you know the principle of how chords are formed you will soon be improvising with ease. If you play a keyboard instrument you will be able to improvise your own pieces and be able to entertain your friends at a moments notice. On the other hand if you play in a band or a group you will be well equipped to do a real 'jam' session. Whether you play a single line instrument (flute, saxophone, trumpet, violin etc.) or keyboard instruments, this class is for you.

Guitar workshops: personalized lessons / private training
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.

Learn Piano and Improvisation and practice other languages :)
The most important matter that I could write here about is my passion to teach. I've been teaching already for more than 10 years, from kids to adults. I'm a classical pianist, but I am opened to other musical styles. What I want you to get from your lessons with me, is not only a huge knowledge of theorical stuff or a great technique, I would like to show you my musical world, the imagination and inner exploration that is required to understand and to love music in a whole new level. Once you have found them, it will be very hard to quit playing! The class duration: You can choose! 20 minutes (Great for the youngest : 3 years old) 30 minutes (Ideal for young beginners from 4 years old) 45 minutes (Intermediate+ adult beginners) 1 hour (Intermediate and combined with some Music Theory) I use different methods depending on: 1) The goals of my student 2) The language that we will use on class 3) Age and musical preferences: I start to teach children from 3 years old, we make games and they learn to play through musical stories that I have created throughout my pedagogical career.
