Creating music and beats can be a lot of fun, but it also can be a very difficult process to get into. The people who have gotten famous and made a career out of it did not start producing music for that reason, but for their passion for the music itself. They began making music because of the fun they had. Making music isnât easy either. Many people think that they can just get into the studio, go up to a keyboard, hit a bunch of notes, and then make millions of dollars. Producing music takes years of practice and development and there is no shortcut or way around this.
Here are some tips to get you started in producing music:

You’ve likely had that lazy weekend-long feeling or the Sunday-post-hangover feels â the kind that lets you go to work but in autopilot mode as you face your tasks, completely spacing out as you stare blankly at your synthesizer thinking of what kind of music to produce now or how to finish that mix you’ve been working on.

Just under a year ago theIO Music Academy opened its doors for classes in Los Angeles, with the underlying understanding that while music production can become such an overwhelming subject with the myriad of software, plug-ins and hardware now available on the market, it doesn’t have to be hard to learn how to produce music.
When it comes to electronic music production, the technical approach many music production schools have been employing thus far, and especially the jargon being used throughout their teachings, do not help at all but in fact over-complicated the learning process. IO Music Academy’s goal is to offer a learning music production experience that is approachable to everyone, even those who have little-to-no experience in music production.

Music producer, educator, and member of Edmonton-based Night Vision collective, Adam Johan believes that learning music production should be approachable to everyone, even those who have little-to-no experience in music production. It is with this philosophy in mind that he has partnered with Grammy-nominated DJ and producer Andy Caldwell to open an innovative music production school in the Los Angeles area: the IO Music Academy.

Bastian Bux is the consequence of reducing everything surrounding a DJ and producer to its essential element: the music. That is the intention of Bux: be stripped of all artifice and be judged by his work. Pieces full of deep textures, powerful harmonies, heavy beats and fat basslines; where everything is assembled with soul and sensibility, with the mastery of a craftsman and surgeon’s precision.
His debut was 2015’s “Stay EP” in Suara, where four timeless tracks laid the foundations of what Bastian Bux means today: deep and emotional Techno, dark House, and high class Electronica. Such was the success of the debut that, a few months later, he repeated in Coyu’s imprint with “Teardrop EP”, “Screenshot”, “Tresor” or his recent “Oracle EP”, where his stylistic range extends further its own, going from futuristic Deep House to Progressive Techno. After a first step into the remix production with his Habischmann’s “All I Dream” re-interpretation and being remixed by Coyu himself, he released his first EP on Nicole Moudaber’s imprint Mood Records. In just one year, his work have been supported by most of the underground’s heavyweights and his profile is gaining a remarkable place in the scene.
In front of a crowd, Bastian is able to travel elegantly from housy grooves to rough techno, going thru epic melodies and sober beats, always loyal to his way of understanding music but without losing sight of the dancefloor. That ability has earned him to be one of the ElRow residents and touring all around the globe. After his summer residency in Space Ibiza and having played in UK, Germany, France or Dubai, future looks bright for this new up and coming techno wonderkid.
We had the chance to chat with Bastian earlier this year when we talked about his relationship with elrow, Suara and his connection with the scene in the United States. This time we asked the prolific producer to share 5 key tips for you to apply in the studio!
In recent years, there have been some significant developments in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). While it has not yet reached the levels we sometimes see in science fiction movies, or even saw in movies a decade ago when producers attempted to predict the world of today, it is safe to say at the moment that we are getting close to that reality. Much so that artificial intelligence is being considered as a possible tool that will do work that has never been thought possible before.
One of those types of work that might become AI-driven is music production, particularly in electronic music. And already, it is causing both excitement and concern among music professionals and artists in the industry alike.
