If you’re new to music production, we recommend starting with Building Blocks, our beginner-friendly course that covers the fundamentals of producing music in Ableton Live. Building Blocks is the first course in our Electronic Producer, Singer Producer, and Total Producer programs.

If you’re interested in DJing, Spin Class is the best place to start. It’s a 3-month course focused entirely on DJ skills and performance. Spin Class is also the first course in our DJ Producer program.

Both courses require no prior experience and are great entry points into the world of music production and DJing.
