Brief course description
When producing a track, we’ve all experienced that point when you can’t get any further and need some extra inspiration. Electronic Music Composition Pt1 (EMC1) will help you overcome this obstacle by introducing basic music theory in an easy to understand way without getting bogged down in scales and theory. This will help you develop the musical aspects of your tracks.
We analyze and demonstrate how classic and cutting edge tunes are put together musically to clearly show you the techniques they use so you can implement them in your own tracks. You’ll find EMC both engaging and inspiring, just what making music should be. It’s developed by virtuoso keyboardist Ski Oakenfull (solo artist signed to Sony and remixer/producer/writer/player for artists including Incognito, Joey Negro and The Bays.
The course contains new presentation techniques that enable you to see exactly what’s being played on the keys and what’s happening in the software/DAW. You will be able to use these ideas and techniques in your own productions to get that musical buzz you’re missing.
