Would you like to record your own songs, but do not know what you need and how it works?

My name is Erik, 21 years old and I have gained a lot of experience in recent years with playing on many stages and on different study recordings. And now I hope to transfer something from that experience to new talent, or to you!
As producer of an album, a number of singles and company advertisements, I have been able to work with many musicians, plug ins and instruments and it is incredibly cool to be able to record this.
But you too can do this yourself!
In the lessons I hope to be able to bring you (depending on the knowledge you have) further into recording songs and the use of Logic Pro X software & external plugins so that you can quickly record your songs or songs for someone else.

Lessons are for beginners and average level and can be given at home, at home or via webcam. Times are in consultation and possibly not indicated times are possible. For more info and option you can always contact me.

The moment of engagement between the performer and the listener it is the most intense feeling I’ve ever felt. It is a very unexpected moment, it just happens and there you are holding your instrument in front of people you are sharing your performance with. Suddenly everyone is waiting for you to continue the story you have been telling and everyone is just at the same time on the same place and you have what they need: a message they want to hear and they know you will share it with them. So once you do you reach that sensation, that moment, and what happens afterwards it is magic! It is absolutely wonderful how one, a hundred or even thousands of humans can be on hold for the same message and once it is delivered they just feel it the same exactly way as you do.

This sensation is not only happening on a performance but also on a teaching situation. I’ve been teaching for some year from children to adults and I discovered that if you put all your energy all your love and passion and you give it all as a teacher or as a student you can reach this magical communication levels! Which makes a lesson such an experience! That is why as a teacher I am mostly focused on creativity and trough it the discoveries of your instrument always basing this process on your goals and ambitions which are the most important pillars of a musician!!

I would be happy to teach you:

PERCUSSION
- For all levels and style, from classical percussion to world music.

VIBRAPHONE
- For all levels and style, mostly focused on jazz

KEYBOARDS & PIANO
-For beginners on classical music and all levels on jazz or any other modern style

MUSIC PRODUCTION
This are examples of what I am able and willing to share with students of any level and on any need:
- The world of music production software (Ableton Live, Logic Pro,...)
- How to record myself
- How to compose music (pop, funk, jazz, latin, etc) by using a computer
- How to create beat music
- How to use a looper and other digital effects
- Discovering the world of plug-ins and virtual instruments
- What is music production and how to use it

Shortly, I have never stopped studying since I was 8 years old, I’ve graduated on classical percussion on Jazz vibraphone and currently finishing my masters on how to play vibraphone and Keys at the same time. Trough this time i’ve being participating with classical orchestras ( Orquesta Gaos, Joven orquesta sinfonica de Galicia,...) on different percussion festivals as a player and as a teacher ( Perkulliria, FIP Agolada,...) and on many different style bands ( Skarallaos, GHASS, Fhree, Qando Vand,...). Currently working with MAMIHLAPINATAPAI a very personal world music project here in The Netherlands.

My lessons are student driven, which means that since every person is different and unique, my task is to treat each one in a different way, trying to be inspiring for each one. Through creating, discussing, composing and producing, I will guide you throughout any process, until the result is achieved!

Ableton Live is a powerful program to play, compose and improvise music with.

This course provides hands-on experience in producing, mixing, and sound design with a digital audio workstation. Students will learn the fundamentals characteristics of sound and digital audio, creative ways of composing music and an introduction to signal processing such as equalization, compression, delay, and reverb. In addition to core audio and mixing concepts, students will learn various production techniques, such as sequencing, arranging, automation, using virtual instruments (eg synths, samplers, and drum machine plugins), working with MIDI, plugin formats such as VST / Audio -Units, and mapping digital USB controllers for the studio and live performances.

Let's get started!

My name is Davide and my music experience started when I was 10 years old during my middle school in Italy.
I started playing cello and I kept on studying classical music for 8 years, performing as a soloist and in many orchestras and ensembles.
In the meanwhile, I started being interested in electronic music and composition for soundtracks.

When I turned 17 I realized that music would have been my passion and my job. I graduated in “Contemporary Writing and Production” at Pescara Conservatory in Italy. During these studies, I dove deeper into Pop and Experimental Electronic Music, orchestration, and orchestral composition. I also had the opportunity to play in different bands and discover different genres such as Post Rock, Progressive Metal, and Heavy Metal.
After my bachelor's degree, I finished my studies following a Master's program at Codarts (Rotterdam) in Creative Production. During those two years, I had the opportunity to collaborate with many people and explore different kinds of music (Turkish, Flamenco, Jazz, etc.). I wrote an Artistic Research about electronic unquantized music by analyzing the sound of producers such as Flume, Burial, and Arca.

Now that my studies are finished I feel that I want to spread my knowledge and my passion to many people as possible.
My class subjects are:
- Music Production (from beginners to expert level, mainly Ableton Live and Pro Tools classes)
- Cello Lessons (from beginners to intermediate level)
- Music Theory (from beginners to expert level)
- Composition and Orchestration (explore the world and joy of composing for an orchestra and how to use your DAW as a real symphonic orchestra).

As a Producer, I want to let the student feel completely free to ask me whatever he/she wants. I have had many experiences as a producer and I know how to handle many different genres.
My first teaching experience was at 17 years old and from that moment on I did not change my teaching set-up.
I want the lesson to be an interactive moment in which the teacher and the student are sharing ideas and opinions.

Feel free to apply for the lessons.
I look forward to meeting you!

More than 25 years of experience as a professional musician and more than 20 as a teacher and pedagogue have taught me that, alongside a technical and knowledgeable musical upbringing, my teaching can instil in the student a wide sense of musical appreciation. It is my firm belief that music connects to many other areas of learning and may even catalyse the overall pedagogical development of children.
Furthermore, my training as a classical composer/arranger and a performer of classical, jazz and world music allows me to create diverse pedagogical scenarios, which fit not just the aspirations of individual students, but also helps me to work with students collectively in ensembles and other kinds of interactive projects. For the past 5 years I have also included many technological advancements (such as DAW software), which allow students to record and produce their own material or practice sessions. Using these techniques, I am able to reach out to each student, introduce new concepts and make sure they enjoy and improve their learning processes.

Learn Ableton Live from the comfort of your home!
you can learn everything there is to know about Ableton, from producing full tracks to live performances and DJ sets.
At the end of each lesson, you'll receive “homework” - to make a short track displaying everything you've learned so far, with each lesson growing in complexity.
The speed of advancement is totally up the you, the more you work at home the faster you will advance!

Have you always dreamt of recording your own song? Do you want to take your musical ideas to the next level?

Regardless if you've never recorded your own music or if you've already experimented with Digital Audio Workstations (DAW), this course will teach you the basics of music composition and production. We will use both basic music theory and music production tricks to come up with and create your first song(s). From brainstorming song ideas on the piano or guitar, recording vocals and percussion or adding drums in the DAW, you will have complete freedom over your creativity.

Main skills taught: basics of DAWs, recording and mixing instruments and vocals, using and manipulating samples, creating drum beats and chord progressions, music theory, expressing and communicating musical ideas, complementary knowledge about music history.

Let's turn your creative ideas into reality!

Ableton Live is a powerful tool for making music and designing your own music sets to play live. In the lessons, you will learn how to work with the software and music production tools, learn the tips and tricks, as well as the musical terms necessary to translate your own ideas into music, and you’ll be able to prepare everything for a live show or a master track. Besides the more technical approach, we will also work on composition techniques and how to unleash your creativity. Depending on your background and musical preferences, we will adjust the content of the lessons so that it fits you best. The lessons can be done in English, Dutch, Spanish or Catalan.

Making your own music is a very personal practice that demands attention and care. It is comforting to learn the craft and to know what to focus on now and what to deal later in the process. This way you can let your creativity lead the way and take care of the technical details after on.

With this course, you'll learn the KNOW-HOW of making your own music from start to finish. We will go through; inspiration, composing, arranging, production, mixing, mastering, and release. You will understand the conceptual frame and the technical craft behind them. In no time you will start applying them to your own workflow as well, no matter what genre you are interested in, electronic, pop, jazz, indie, experimental, classical, and so on.

I try to make sure all my students leave the class with a new idea, a fascination, or a new question in their minds about whatever they want to do but most importantly with a smile. The music gathers people, and so is making it. That's why the lessons can flow into a conversation, a joke, a listening discussion, and a feedback session in which we become not only a teacher and a student but hopefully also friends.

Subjects we can focus on: Music Theory, Composing, Arranging, Ableton Live, Sibelius, Notation, Electronic Music, Synthesizers, Guitar(acoustic/electric), Piano, Mixing & Mastering

Looking to improve your musical skills or take your creativity to the next level?

I provide custom music lessons based on your goals and current skills, from beginners to advanced players. We will be working together through video call sessions, or in person in my music studio, and learn anything, from technique and theory to philosophy and composition, in lessons that are 100% tailored to you.

If you’ve been looking to learn:
🎸 Guitar technique or expand your fretboard knowledge;

🎹 Advanced improvisation or music theory;

🎤 Creative songwriting and music production;

🎥 How to make compelling social media content;

Or just generally want to level up your music, I’d be happy to help you out.

In the process of taking lessons, you’ll learn from your favourite songs, and discover creative ways to best express yourself as a musician, so we’ll always be sure to focus on whatever is right in the moment, in a way that’s engaging and effective.

Lessons are generally 45 minutes long (depending on personal preference and the type of lessons). We’ll work on something you want to improve, applied to music you like, and you’ll leave with new material to practise until next time we meet up.
