"I've been a member of your courses for a bit over a year now and really really enjoying it. I've enrolled to a couple of courses, and your methodology is clear, instructive, and creative and really helps me to get on with my production.
I've surfed the Internet over and over and nothing comes close to your courses, so thumbs up, and keep up the good work!"
- Claude

"Your courses and tutorials are the best I’ve seen. And I’ve been taking classes here and there for more time than I care to admit. You have made the obstacles of music theory, compression, side chaining, eq, far more easier to understand. The fact that you use all Ableton effects makes the tutorials even better. Will be taking more lessons when I can afford it and have the time."
-Reggie.

"Just completed the “Deep House Track start to Finish” - Course and wanted to say it's excellent - well done! Best course I've done by a mile.
I learned masses, especially motivating as the track itself is a great piece of music. Francois your tuition is smart, concise and you always have the learner in mind. Also really liked your approach to production and impressed with your knowledge of both production and theory.
Thanks and keep up the good work!""
