About the Curriculum

Introductory & Intermediate Modules

Music Production & Songwriting

The Music Production & Songwriting module provides today’s music creators with a foundation on the necessary concepts, terminology, and techniques of modern studio track composition.

The digital audio workstation (“DAW”) is the centerpiece of the recording studio. This module breaks down the fundamentals of getting sound into the DAW and perfecting your sound using modern recording and mixing techniques.

Music Business & Artist Branding

Today’s music creators are copyright owners, brand owners and publishing companies. This module outlines the pillars of a music creator’s business structure and how to take their music to the marketplace for the world to hear.
