Master the Fundamentals of Electronic Music

How do some producers make great music after just one year of production, while others still sound average?
Not that they are more talented.
It is not that they have more money.
And it is not even necessarily that they have more time …
The answer? It is the way they learn and practice.
The most successful new producers have these things in common:
They work quickly and focus on finishing songs (not just starting them) …
They develop real skills instead of just watching endless amounts of tutorials …
They develop habits that help them learn quickly and practice effectively …
But most importantly, they are off to a good start.
They get the right education and counseling right out of the box. This saves them hundreds of hours of time throughout their learning journey. It helps them build good habits (and avoid bad ones). And it’s a lot less frustrating than the path most new growers take.
If you are a new producer, you are probably thinking about all this. Anxiously.
You love electronic music, and you just want to do it.
But you don’t know where to start.
You have read some articles … seen some videos …
But instead of giving you answers, they left you with more questions.
Or maybe you’ve already tried. You’ve taken an online course or program, but it was too confusing (and if you’re honest, a bit boring).
All you want to do is skip the bullshit and start off on the right foot. You want to find the best education at an affordable price.
Don’t do what i did
I am Sam Matla. I have been producing music for over 10 years and teaching it professionally for the past 6 years.
I wasted a lot of time learning how to make electronic music. What took me months to learn could have been shortened to a few weeks.
It had no address. I was completely on my own.
Sure, I picked up some techniques and ideas from various tutorials … which helped. But he still didn’t understand how everything worked together.
Those first few months left me confused and discouraged.
I almost quit.
In fact, I took a break for several months before coming back, simply because I found it too difficult.
Looking back, I realized that I made three key mistakes during those first few months:
I concentrated too much on theoretical learning, instead of doing it …
I developed bad habits. I cut corners, worked slowly and didn’t finish what I started …
He had no framework for learning. I divided my attention between too many different areas of production and progressed at an incredibly slow pace.
Introduction: EDM Foundations
The 4-week online course that teaches electronic music production through action and practice.
Three years ago, I noticed thousands of new producers coming to our website every day desperately looking for answers.
After talking to many of them, I realized something …
True learning isn’t just about receiving infinite amounts of information. Real learning takes place when you put concepts into practice, over and over again.
Look, anyone can read a book on writing melodies and come out with more knowledge. But the people who constantly write great melodies? They have done it over and over again. They have developed the ability to write melodies.
This realization led me to develop a course for new producers that focuses exactly on this. Skills development. Intuitive learning. Finishing songs. And have fun.
In other words, a course that really helps.
That is what EDM Foundations is. It is an in-depth, self-paced online course that teaches you the basics of everything you need to know about electronic music production. You will progressively learn more complex and advanced techniques and concepts as you progress through the course. You will not be overwhelmed and you will not get bored. I will guide you through it all.
Once you have gone through the course, you will have 4 finished songs that you can show to friends and family.

Is that how it works
EDM Foundations is a practical course. You will spend 90% of your time in your DAW following what we are doing step by step, learning as you go.
By the end of the course, you will have developed four basic production skills:
1. Generation of ideas
You’ll be able to write catchy melodies, create solid chord progressions, program detailed drum sequences, and more.
2. Arrangement
You will know how to turn an idea into a complete song, create build-ups, use tension and energy, and keep the listener interested.
3. Sound design
You will understand the tools and techniques used to make unique sounds, as well as audio manipulation and sample adjustment / refinement.
4. Mix
You’ll know how to use faders and effects to balance the instruments and sounds in your song, making it sound clear and polished.
You will develop these skills through copying, repetition, and experimentation.
Here’s how: we are going to work on four complete songs together throughout the course. Essentially, we’ll walk you through the song creation process, step by step, from start to finish, three times.
Each song should take about a week to complete (although you can go at your own pace. There is no deadline). After the course, we will give you guidance on how to produce your own original.

What you will learn in each module and project
Introductory modules
If you are completely new to production, or even music as a whole, these first two modules will quickly help you understand how a D.A.W (Digital Audio Workstation) works and also how music fundamentally works.
MODULE 1
Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) Basics
For Ableton Live and FL Studio
If you are a FL Studio or Ableton Live user, we will help you master the fundamentals of your audio application and quickly build a professional workflow.
You’ll learn:
How DAWs work (it’s less complicated than you think)
The best way to configure FL Studio or Ableton Live
How to better navigate the interface and create a workflow
MODULE 2
Fundamentals of music theory
Most new producers skip learning music theory. Bad idea. This module will walk you through what you need to know about music theory in less than an hour.
You’ll learn:
How the major and minor scales work
The importance of intervals and how to use them
How to build chords and chord progressions
Step-by-step project tutorial modules
After learning the basics, you’ll dive into all four tutorial projects. You’ll download the resource files, you’ll be given a quick overview, and then I’ll walk through each step.
(The full program is available below this section)
MODULE 3
Project 1: Future Bass
In the first project, you will learn the fundamentals of chord writing, vocal arrangement, and track arrangement. Specifically, we will focus on building a powerful decay by layering multiple instruments.
You’ll learn:
How to organize and layer multiple instruments
The secrets behind an energetic and attractive arrangement
The fundamental approach to getting a clean mix
MODULE 4
Project 2: House
After we’ve learned the basics during project one, we’re going to step things up in the second tutorial and focus heavily on building a powerful house groove. In this project, we will spend most of our time programming a solid drum loop and layers of bass instruments.
You’ll learn:
How to create a powerful groove with just drums and bass
Layering techniques to create a “wall of sound”
How to build tension and energy in a drop
MODULE 5
Project 3: Melodic Bass
The third project is instrumental, which means that we have to compensate with our composition and percussion programming to keep the song interesting. We’ll do this again through layering, careful placement of the sounds, and an impactful drum sequence.
You’ll learn:
How to layer drums for maximum impact
Create a second single drop (using existing elements)
Techniques and tactics to keep your arrangement interesting
MODULE 6
Project 4: Future Pop
Our final project is by far the most complex track to produce, but it is also the most rewarding. You’ll use a professionally recorded voice to get started, organizing itemsand instruments around it. We will focus heavily on instrumentation and layers to build success.
You’ll learn:
How to build a song around a vowel
Processing and mixing group for clarity and punch
How to take a project from average to large
