Is this course right for me?
Beginners: This course is for everybody who has little or no experience with producing, Dj’ing or Ableton.
No Beginner, neither Advanced: If you fall in between these two categories we can offer private lessons to get you ready for the advanced course. If you have doubts about this, please get in touch with us.
Advanced: You’re already producing your own music or playing dj sets, but it isn’t quite on the level you would like it to be. This course is meant to help you get to your desired level and get your music ready to get signed to one of your favorite labels or played in your favorite clubs.
