Electronic Music Theory for producers Weekender
12 hours of practical music theory training rooted in the major electronic genres, focused on giving you the knowledge and tools you need to write compelling music – for yourself or the dancefloor.

When?
Weekend of December 1st and 2nd from 10.30 – 17.00 (lunch included!)
1st half – Saturday December 1st; 10.30 – 17.00
2nd half – Sunday December 2nd; 10.30 – 17.00

What do I learn?
Get the musical foundations you need to consciously compose great tracks with no prior experience. By the end of the course you’ll be able to understand the musical concepts that underpin your favorite songs and use those concepts to write compelling music. Throughout the course we’ll use examples from popular tracks to demonstrate different concepts and show how they can be used effectively. The class will also feature office hours prior to each class where you can stay and discuss theory, share your work and get feedback.

Price
2.300 DKK including vegetarian lunch both days
*** (minimum five attendees to run the course) ***

Is it for me?
This course is designed for beginners and those who have perhaps been producing music but have no formal music training. The course will be very practical, so if you’re looking to better understand the music behind what you hear/create without getting too deep in the theoretical wilderness, this is for you.

This is the weekend version of our full Electronic Music Theory Course. Interested in taking your productions to the next level, check out our other courses here.
