About this Course

After having taken this class you'll have seen a complete production process first hand. Starting from nothing we are creating drums, sounds, fx, chords, arrangements, until we have a finished, mixed & mastered track.

Everything will be explained in detail as we go through all important stages of the production. Pick up tricks and skills, save valuable time, learn new techniques and apply them to your own productions right away. The track is inspired by artists like S. Bodzin, J. Olander and of course, Francois Rengere.
