The 4-week online course that teaches electronic music production through action and practice. Imagine this., You discover that you can make electronic music with nothing more than a pair of headphones and a laptop. You own both. You sign up for a course. You're excited. You're ready to go! After 2 hours of watching dry, uninspiring theory videos, you think to yourself., Isn't this supposed to be enjoyable? I want to MAKE something!

Unfortunately, most courses overlook a simple truth:

True learning is more about developing skills than simply gaining knowledge about things. And to develop a skill, you need to practice, and actually MAKE some stuff.

Don't get me wrong—theory is important. But it's not as important as developing actual music production skills.

Anyone can read a book and understand what goes into a great chord progression or melody, but the people who write great melodies? They've already put in hours upon hours of work. They've written hundreds if not thousands of melodies already.

EDM Foundations is the course that focuses on skill development… completing projects… practicing… and having fun.

It's an intensive, 4-week online course that teaches you the basics of music production in a practical way. You'll learn just enough to move on to the next step, so you won't get bored. By the end of it, you'll have finished 4 full songs.
