    Evolve your music recording and electronic production skills with an experienced producer

    Electronic music, and contemporary recording techniques can be hard to learn. The technology changes every year and searching for answers online can be frustrating. In our lessons, we will tailor a program to your level of development, either getting you on your feet with your first recordings, or finding ways to evolve your existing projects and push your style forward. With the big-picture mindset of a producer/composer, we can fill in the gaps of your electronic music toolkit. For beginners: let's get you making your own songs, you will be amazed at how far you can go with a little time practicing. For experts: let's get your projects to a point where nobody knows how you possibly made that!

    About Douglas R.

    Hi! I'm Doug, a songwriter, producer, and multi-media artist with over a decade experience making albums and releasing music. While many teachers can deliver the basics of music theory and composition, I am focused on new music and songwriting on the cutting edge. We can work together to combine the best of classical, 20th-century pop, and 21st-century electronic music techniques to push your work to its highest possible level. With experience in the industry, I am also thrilled to discuss the entirety of your project, including bringing your songs to market and the entire branding/publishing pipeline involved. Or if you are just starting to write songs, we will set you on a path to shatter your own creative horizons. I am excited to meet you and chat about how we can level you up!
