A bit about me:

I’ve been there, comparing my tracks to my favourite music producers and thinking “THIS SUCKS”

Demotivated, I became a music procrastinator - AVOIDING MAKING MUSIC… and when I did try, I just became frustrated & RAGE QUIT.

But, over the course of 10 years, I NEVER FULLY GAVE UP. And now I work in music production FULL TIME.

You can see on this page some of the amazing projects I’ve been worked on.

I want to FAST FORWARD those 10 YEARS for you - in only 10 SIMPLE STEPS - and get you the RESULT you want, a finished track, released on a label.

    It gave me a really good overview of how electronic musicians use loops and jam in the software to create full tracks."

  • Russell Nash

    Releases music regularly & designs sound packs for synth companies

    "I was very impressed with David's knowledge, and passion for what he does.

    I'd wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for help on their musical journey."

    Definitely highly recommended."

  • Field of View

    Matthew has now released 6 EPs, and is working on a live electronic show

    "I had online sessions looking at structure and mixing on one of the tracks which was extremely informative and helpful.

    This also helped me get the others over the line and released. I couldn’t recommend him more."

  • Sephony

    Ana was recently the composer & music producer on a video games creation competition

    "Before I started lessons, I felt like I was completely out of my depth with Ableton, to the point where I was almost too scared to use it,

    but now, I feel like I can make the music I always wanted to make, and I can navigate Ableton to a degree where I’d actually feel confident helping others out with it!

  • Luke Snitter

    Finishing off his first EP and building a live show

    "Did a course with David and I learned so much! David is a great teacher, very flexible, professional and enthusiastic about helping you achieve your musical goals.

    Not only were the lessons good but the extra support and community that comes with the package is a real touch and super important for music producers that rarely leave their bedrooms!"
