REQ: Edmprod - EDM Foundations - 2018 Update screenshot

Does anyone have this?

Thanks

Info

Ask yourself this...
How do some producers make great music after just one year of producing, while others still sound average?
It's not that they're more talented.

It's not that they have more money.

And it's not even necessarily that they have more time...

The answer? It's how they learn and practice.

The most successful new producers have these things in common:

They work quickly and focus on finishing songs (not just starting them)...
They develop real skills rather than just watching an endless amount of tutorials...
They build habits that help them learn quickly and practice effectively...
But most importantly, they get a good start.

They get the right education and advice from the get-go. This saves them hundreds of hours of time over the course of their learning trajectory. It helps them forge good habits (and avoid bad ones). And it's a lot less frustrating than the path most new producers take.

If you're a new producer, you're likely thinking about all of this. Anxiously.

You love electronic music, and you just want to make it.

But you don't know where to start.

You've read a few articles... watched a few videos...

But instead of giving you answers, they left you with more questions.

Or maybe you've already tried. You've taken an online course or program, but it was too confusing (and if you're honest, a bit boring).

All YOU want to do is skip the nonsense and start off on the right foot. You want to find the best education at an affordable price.

Don't do what I did...
I'm Sam Matla. I've been producing music for over 8 years and teaching it professionally for the last 5 years.

I wasted a lot of time learning how to make electronic music. What took me months to learn could have been shortened to a few weeks.

I had no direction. I was completely on my own.

Sure, I picked up some techniques and ideas from various tutorials... which helped. But I still didn't understand how everything worked together.

Those first few months left me confused and discouraged.

I almost quit.

In fact, I took a break for several months before returning, simply because I found it too difficult.

Looking back, I realized I made three key mistakes during those first few months:

I focused too much on theoretical learning, instead of actually doing...
I developed bad habits. I cut corners, worked slowly, and didn't finish what I started...
I had no framework for learning. I split my attention between too many different areas of production, and progressed at an incredibly slow rate.
Introducing: EDM Foundations
The 4-week online course that teaches electronic music production through action and practice.
Two years ago, I noticed that thousands of new producers were coming to our website every day desperately looking for answers.

After talking to many of them, I realized something...

True learning isn't just about being fed endless amounts of information. True learning takes place when you put concepts into practice, over and over.

See, anyone can read a book about writing melodies and come away with more knowledge. But the people who consistently write great melodies? They've done it over and over again. They've developed the skill of melody writing.

This realization led me to develop a course for new producers that focuses on exactly this. Skill development. Intuitive learning. Finishing songs. And having fun.

In other words, a course that actually helps.

That's what EDM Foundations is. It's an in-depth, self-paced online course that teaches you the basics of everything you need to know about electronic music production. You'll progressively learn more complex and advanced techniques and concepts as you progress through the course. You won't get overwhelmed, and you won't get bored. I'll walk you through all of it.

Once you've gone through the course, you'll have 4 finished songs that you can show friends and family.

Here's how it works
EDM Foundations is a practical course. You'll spend 90% of your time in your DAW following along step-by-step with what I'm doing, learning as you go.

By the end of the course, you'll have developed four core production skills:

Image
Idea Generation
You'll be able to write catchy melodies, craft solid chord progressions, program detailed drum sequences, and more.

Image
Arrangement
You'll know how to turn an idea into a full song, create build-ups, use tension & energy, and keep the listener interested.
Image
Sound Design
You'll understand the tools and techniques used to make unique sounds, as well as audio manipulation and sample tweaking/refinement.

Image
Mixing
You'll know how to use faders and effects to balance the instruments and sounds in your song, making it sound clear and polished.

You'll develop these skills through copying, repetition, and experimentation.

Here's how: we'll work on three full songs together throughout the course. Essentially, I'll walk you through the song creation process, step-by-step, from start to finish, three times.

Each song should take roughly one week to complete (though, you're welcome to go at your own pace. There's no deadline). During the final week (fourth week), you'll work on your own original song from scratch.

Introductory Modules
If you're completely new to production, or even music as a whole, these first two modules will quickly help you understand how a D.A.W (Digital Audio Workstation) works and also how music fundamentally works.

Ableton Live Basics
EDM Foundations is taught using Ableton Live 10. You can take this course using a different DAW (see FAQ), but there is a free 30-day trial for Live which you can learn more about here.

You'll learn:

How DAWs work (it's less complicated than you think)
The basic features of Ableton Live 10
How to navigate the user interface
Music Theory Basics
Most new producers skip learning music theory. Bad idea. This module will run you through what you need to know about music theory in less than one hour.

You'll learn:

How the major and minor scale work
The importance of intervals and how to read (and use) them
How to build chords and chord progressions

The Projects
After learning the basics, you'll dive in to the three walkthrough projects. You'll download the resource files, be given a quick overview, and then I'll walk you through each step.

Song #1: Modern House

The first project you'll work on is this house song. You'll start by programming a basic drum loop and bassline, then you'll arrange it into a song before mixing it down to make it sound clean.

You'll learn:

How to create a groovy, percussion-heavy drum sequence
How to layer multiple bass sounds to create a powerful drop
The #1 arrangement technique for beginners
Song #2: Pop/Hip-Hop

The second song is more complex than the first. You'll be building on top of foundational techniques you learned while producing the first song.

You'll learn:

How to transform a boring sample into a unique instrument
The "mix-as-you-go" workflow (most producers use this)
How to program complex hi-hat patterns
Layering chord sounds (without making a sonic mess)
Sound design techniques: how to process sounds to make them stand out
Song #3: Future Bass (With Vocal)

For your third and final walkthrough project, you'll build around a professionally-recorded vocal, learning how to produce a radio-ready song.

You'll learn:

How to work with and arrange around a vocal line
Basic vocal effects and processing
How to use tension and dynamics to create a BIG drop
How to use synth fills and complexity to give your song the "wow" factor
The Final Song (Original Project)
The final project (or final week of the course if you choose to stick to the schedule), involves you creating your own original song from scratch. You'll put everything you've learned in the three walkthrough projects into practice.

At this stage, you'll get tactics and strategies to give you a head start. There's also a bonus 60 minute production session that you can watch through and pick up extra techniques and tricks to help you get started.
