About Me

I believe that every learner is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and ways of understanding. That’s why I tailor my teaching approach to each individual, assessing their needs before any lesson to create a personalized learning experience. My goal is to make complex concepts more accessible, engaging, and practical, ensuring that students gain both technical knowledge and creative confidence.

As a London-based freelance Audio Engineer, Sound Designer, Music Producer, and Live Performance DJ, I bring years of hands-on experience in recording, production, and immersive sound design. Originally from Tenerife, Canary Islands, my journey has been shaped by a deep passion for innovation, blending traditional techniques with cutting-edge technology. Whether it’s recording live instruments, designing abstract soundscapes, or integrating visuals into performances, I am fully committed to exploring the boundaries of sound.

My approach to teaching is not just about passing on knowledge—it’s about inspiring curiosity, creativity, and a deeper understanding of how sound can shape our experiences. Whether you’re looking to refine technical skills, explore experimental sound design, or develop confidence in live performance, I’m here to guide you through the process in a way that suits your learning style.

Music Production, Audio Engineering and Songwriting Classes
I studied music production at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) under the mentorship of King James Britt, and at Abbey Road in London. I am well versed in most audio software (Pro Tools, Ableton Live, Logic Pro X), using all of these in a professional setting for over 5 years. Currently, I work as an audio engineer, mixing and mastering songs for clients as well as recording in major studios across the city, as well as working remotely for the studio that I started in Oxford (Lenka's Studios). I would love to help you reach your specific goals in Audio production and pass on my knowledge. Students can bring their works in Progress for feedback and to be worked on, or they can ask in advance to learn more about a specific area of audio production (For example, recording techniques for drums or piano, mixing techniques for live recordings or for electronic music). I have many years of experience in writing songs electronically, and for live instruments, for artists in the UK and the USA. If you want to learn more about songwriting, this is another area I would be happy to help with.

Any genre is okay!

Raphaël
Music Production for composers, musicians, producers
