So, there's no doubt about the fact that you're in safe hands.
Every step of the music production process, from start to finish, is diagrammed and explained. Everything, from drums and basic beats to loops, grooves, basslines, synths, pads, chords, stabs, vocals, and much more. And you won’t just learn how all of these different components work in isolation; you will learn how to bring them together through music theory, synthesis, mixing, and mastering.
Plus, you will be shown the system that I use to produce my music. So, when you sit down to work on a track, you won’t get stuck or have to stop what you’re doing to search for solutions to inevitable, routine, or recurring problems.
When you’re done with the program, you will have the knowledge, skills, and framework that you need to finish your records, without wondering if you left anything out or whether you’re ready to send out demos.

Knee Deep In Sound
Jon's productions caught our ears a while back now, Mainly due to the warm and punchy mix downs he was doing on his club music. Quickly enough we signed some of his music to our label.
Danny Howard
BBC Radio 1
One of the most versatile and knowledgeable producers of our current scene, I don't know many engineers who can produce both underground & commercial but is an authentic as they come with a deep musical palette and ear for what actually sounds good.
MK
Area 10
I have always been a fan of Jon's production, the way he can use strong melodies in an underground club track is a gift that can't be taught.
