Expert music production course on FL Studio: Learn the techniques used in my tracks with millions of streams (6 years of experience)Translate this text using Google Translate.

My method: Practice before theory. With 6 years of experience and productions accumulating millions of streams, I offer a teaching method based on the reality of the current music market. My goal isn't to make you read a manual, but to make you self-sufficient with FL Studio as quickly as possible. I teach the practical techniques I use daily to create tracks that sound "professional". Typical course structure: Each session is tailored to your needs, but generally follows this structure: Listening and analysis: We listen to your projects or reference pieces. Targeted technique: Focus on a specific aspect (Composition, Sound Design, Vocal Mixing, Mastering...). Practical application: We immediately apply the technique to an FL Studio project. Debriefing: I give you exercises and tips to help you progress before the next lesson. Who are these courses for? For complete beginners who want to get to grips with FL Studio. To intermediate beatmakers who feel their productions lack "punch" or clarity. For artists who want to learn how to record and mix their own voices. I help you develop your own sonic identity.

Nice to meet you :D My name is Melvin, and I'm a pianist/composer and music theorist who loves to guide people with a passion for music! In my lessons, I teach three different subjects in which I specialize and perhaps can help you improve your skills as a musician. If you want to play the piano intuitively, without thinking about it, or interpret scores, then Piano + Improvisation is the course for you! Together, we'll break through the boundaries of traditional sheet music and teach you to unleash your inner musicality. Whether you're a beginning pianist longing to improvise simple melodies or an experienced player looking to explore new expressive paths, I'll inspire and encourage you to broaden your musical horizons. Have you always wanted to write your own music, but don't know how to get started? Then together we'll push your creative boundaries and help you develop your own musical masterpieces. Whether you're a budding composer taking your first steps or an experienced musician looking for new inspiration, I'm here to guide and inspire you on your unique composition journey. Need some theory because you don't understand certain elements of music? No worries! Step by step, we'll explore the fundamentals of music theory together, delving into notes, chords, rhythm, and structure. You'll discover how all these elements work together to create masterpieces, or to better understand scores as a musician. I'm looking forward to meeting you :D Melvin

Music Composition, Harmony and Orchestration – From Concept to ScoreTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Music Composition, Harmony and Orchestration – From Concept to ScoreTranslate this text using Google Translate.

In my lessons, we work deeply on harmonic analysis, counterpoint, and musical structure across the full spectrum of academic music from all historical periods, as well as jazz and popular music. A central pillar of the classes is the analysis of composers, which we approach as an essential tool for understanding musical language and developing a personal creative voice. Depending on the student’s interests, analysis may range from Mozart to Debussy, or from Beethoven to Bartók, among many others. A strong emphasis is placed on counterpoint from all historical periods. I assist students with conservatory-level exercises, and we study contrapuntal techniques through the analysis and practice of Bach’s inventions and fugues, Renaissance counterpoint, and 20th-century contrapuntal approaches. In composition classes, the content is fully adapted to the student’s creative needs and goals. The focus is on developing practical creative tools that support original thinking, with the clear objective of composing original pieces of short, medium, and long duration, tailored to each student’s artistic direction. For orchestration, we explore writing techniques for a wide range of ensembles, including chamber music, full orchestra, and popular music formations such as quartets, quintets, big band, and tango orchestras. Particular attention is given to instrumental color, balance, articulation, and idiomatic writing. As an Argentinian composer and educator, I offer a specialized perspective on tango, including in-depth analysis of composers such as Astor Piazzolla, as well as composition and orchestration techniques related to tango. Due to the geographical and cultural proximity, I also offer classes focused on Bossa Nova, exploring its harmonic language, rhythmic structures, and stylistic characteristics. Lessons are suitable for students at different levels, from beginners to advanced musicians, and are tailored to individual academic, professional, or creative goals.
