What You Will Learn?

  • How much time are you willing to waste learning music production?.
  • One year?.
  • Five years?.
  • It took me 10 years to learn how to make beats I was proud of, which is 4X longer than it should have. .
  • How come?.
  • Because I had no structure. .
  • I tried to learn on my own through random youtube tutorials and blogs I read online. .
  • I spun my wheels for years. .
  • And after teaching hundreds of students I know now why..
  • The answer is simple:.
  • We think because the information is out there we can do it ourselves. .
  • But with the internet sending us new tutorials every other day it leaves us feeling even more confused than when we started. .
  • Do you learn about compression first? What plug-ins are best for mixing hip hop beats? How do you manipulate audio to chop better samples?.
  • I remember I had a million questions and couldn’t find the answers all in the same place. .
  • It took me years of trial-and-error, wasting time trying to learn concepts I thought I needed only to end up months later in the same spot. .
  • So what’s the alternative?.
  • -.
  • After being frustrated with how confusing my own journey was learning music production I decided to do something about it....
  • I created Beat School, an online academy that teaches the foundational elements of music production in a simple and effective way. .
  • This course on hip-hop production is one of the beginner programs designed to help students gain an understanding of beat making with a step-by-step approach. .
  • In this course you'll learn: .
  • -How to easily warp, chop, and manipulate audio samples.
  • -A simple four step process to build hip hop beats from scratch.
  • -How to mix and master your own tracks without having to pay an engineer.
  • -How to achieve the sound you want without wasting money on expensive gear.
  • -How to create banging beats with only stock plug-ins and free resources.
  • -How to design your own sound.
  • -How to make better decisions in terms of sample choice and sound design.
  • My goal is simple:.
  • I am here to teach you a simple process to chop samples, warp audio, easily create drums patterns, mix, and make hip-hop beats that BANG. .
  • In this course I won’t overwhelm you with fancy software or advanced techniques. You’ll learn exactly what you need to get producing as fast as possible. .
  • In doing so, I have built what I believe is the most effective way to easily make boom bap beats..
  • -.
  • My courses are effective, impactful, and include extra resources to help you level up..
  • In the Class Project section you'll be able to download all the files I use so that you can create your own beats and follow along with me. .
  • That being said, your progress is completely up to you. I can’t do the work for you. .
  • But I CAN lessen the learning curve, provide an easy to follow blueprint, and shave years off your path to mastery..
  • I hope to empower you with the knowledge, practice, and resources you need to realize that this isn’t rocket science. .
  • You can do this. .
  • If you are willing to invest in yourself and commit to learning a few hours a week, I have no doubt you’ll be able to achieve your goals with music..
  • Download the stems, set aside a few hours for dedicated learning, and let’s make some beats!.
