MAO course, electronic music production, from composition to mastering with Ableton / Bitwig

Professional musician, composer and producer. 10 international experience (Europe, South America, Asia) Piano lessons, computer music, rhythmic initiation (through beatbox and body percussion) to all types of public. Attractive teaching method mixing classic and modern. PIANO LESSON: My learning methods are modern while reinforcing the fundamental notions of rhythm, interpretation and theory which make the difference between amateurs and professionals. My specialty is jazz which also helps develop the creative part and the improvisation of the students. For the youngest we will work on the pleasure of playing music before arriving on classical music theory (essential) but which can quickly disgust a young child. Through new methods such as beatbox, body percussion, we can learn rhythm and independence while having fun. According to the needs of the students I will develop a tailor-made program for each profile because each person is different, that's why I don't believe in only one way to learn music. The easiest way is to come and try! MAO COURSE: Many people are interested in computer music, essential tools for BeatMaking, Production, etc... Unfortunately in France it is difficult to find serious training at reasonable prices. I myself had to go abroad to learn more about it. I specialize in the following programs: Akai MPC Live, FL Studio. Beginner who would like to launch into Beatmaking or confirmed who wants to improve the quality of these productions, I offer you all my secrets in composition and mastering. We begin?

For the past eight years, I have been self-taught in music, exploring original and innovative methods. My mastery of all genres of electronic music allows me to approach each project with professionalism, creativity and a unique approach that makes the difference. My simplified music production courses make a complex field accessible. Thanks to my approach, learners progress quickly and unleash their creativity, without technical obstacles. My goal is to allow everyone to explore music with ease and confidence.

I offer courses to understand music production regardless of the software you use (I have mastered almost all of them) but I specialize in Ableton Live and Pro Tools that I can explain to you in depth. I also have very good knowledge of music theory and guitar and piano. I will be happy to pass on my knowledge to your children or just to people who are interested in this environment!
