About Me & My Course 🥇 I didn't come from a formal music background. My musical journey began in France with a single guitar and countless hours spent in my room figuring out recording software. I fumbled my way along until I eventually had the opportunity to join Rock Records and work with many incredible musicians. Because I've been through that self-taught process, I completely understand the feeling of "I really want to make this good, but I have no idea what to do next." Theory is important, but knowing theory and making great-sounding music are two different things. My class focuses on the latter. I combine all the crucial concepts with methods I've personally tested and proven effective in the studio to guide you in creating truly outstanding work. ＿＿＿＿＿ ✍️ What will you gain from this course? The "Foundation" of Arrangement: Understand how professionals start a song from scratch. The Details That Make Music Better: Learn the pro-level techniques that give your work a more polished and high-quality sound. Your Own Unique Flavor: I'll help you discover and amplify what's special about your music, so you're not just creating something that sounds like everyone else. Storytelling Through Arrangement: Learn to infuse your music with emotion and imagery, making it more than just a display of technical skill. The Professional Studio Workflow: Understanding this will make your process—whether working alone or with others—much smoother. ❗️Your work is your story. Passion is crucial, but the right methods can save you from a lot of unnecessary detours. This class isn't about incredible talent; it's about effective methods.❗️ 🔥 'Trial Session: Let's Talk About Your Arrangement Direction' 🔥 ⚠️ Before committing to the full course, let's chat for 25 minutes. ⚠️ Send me a demo or any idea you have beforehand—humming, singing, or playing an instrument all work. This helps me get up to speed. 👉 Trial Session Flow: 💡1. Work Review: I'll listen with a producer's ear and tell you directly where your strengths are and what can be improved. 💡2. Discussing Your Vision: What do you want this song to become? We'll sketch out the blueprint together. 💡3. Live Revision: I'll pick one part of your track and we'll tweak it on the spot so you can hear the difference immediately. 💡4. Your Next Steps: I'll give you a clear practice plan to work on. 🎤 How My Arrangement Course Works 🎤 ✍️ Step 1: Building the Framework / Beginner 🔑 Goal: Create a demo that sounds full and impactful, even with just a few instruments. This is the most critical step. A solid foundation makes everything that follows more fun. Chord Progressions: It’s not about random chords. I'll teach you how to make your progressions tell a story. Pairing Drums & Bass: This is the heartbeat of a song. You'll learn how to lock in the right groove for different genres. The Main Instrument: How to choose the right instrument (like piano or guitar) to write a riff that's instantly memorable. Song Structure: How to arrange verses and choruses to keep listeners hooked. ✍️ Step 2: Making It Sound Good / Intermediate 🔑 Goal: Learn the "magic" that professional arrangers use to make your music sound rich and layered, no longer just a simple accompaniment. The Conversation Between Instruments: This is what I focus on most. Learn how to make instruments interact, rather than just clashing together. Sound Selection: I'll guide you to find great-sounding and suitable tones, whether from software or real instruments. Creating a Sense of Space: Use tools like panning to make your music sound wider and more three-dimensional. Cool Transitions: Learn how to make the move from verse to chorus smooth and impactful. ✍️ Step 3: Crafting Your Unique Sound / Advanced 🔑 Goal: Once you have the skills, the final step is to translate your ideas and style into your music. This will elevate you from someone "who can arrange" to a "music producer." Finding Your Style: Stop trying to sound like others. I'll help you analyze your unique traits and turn them into your signature. Adding the "Cool Stuff": Learn how to use "ear candy" like risers and sound effects to make your tracks sound more professional. An Arranger's Mixing Mindset: You don't need to be a mixing engineer, but understanding how to make your demo sound clean and pleasant is crucial. From Demo to Final Product: We'll discuss the entire journey a song takes from arrangement to its final release. ⚠️ Everyone's pace is different. I'll tailor the content to your level and goals. That's why the trial session is a must! 🌝 My Teaching Style I'm not a strict, formal teacher. You can think of me as a partner or producer working on music with you. The vibe is chill, but when it comes to the music, we are absolutely serious. I'll use the easiest-to-understand methods, allowing you to focus on the feeling of your work getting better, bit by bit.
