These lessons are taught on Logic Pro and GarageBand. All aspects of electronic music will be covered ranging from beat making, synthesis, sound design, sampling, recording, arrangement, effects, remixing and more. One of the great things about these lessons is that no matter what genre of electronic music you are wanting to create, Theo has a unique approach and set of skills that can cater to each individuals taste.
Theo has experience teaching people of all ages and skill levels, though he primarily focuses on up and coming talent and younger artists wanting to start their music production journey. Past and present students have had all kinds of successes, ranging from winning remix competitions to releasing music on streaming services and independent selling platforms like BandCamp.
One thing that is often overlooked is getting your setup right, so this is the first thing that needs to be looked at. A computer and pair of headphones is the minimum starting point, but Theo can guide you to getting your studio set up to where you want it to be. Having an Apple computer or laptop is a requirement for these lessons as they are taught with Apple software.
Since Theo caters to each individual, it is best to contact him for a free consultation so that he can learn more about where you are at and where you want to go with your music.

Testimonials
Theo is amazing! He has been teaching my son Elijah how to compose and produce his own music for half a year now. We were looking to hire a music instructor in the beginning of the school year, and luckily we came across Theo, who turned out to be exactly what we were looking for.
A music instructor, a mentor, and a friend.
The thing that sold us on Theo was the fact that he was a DJ. My son Elijah enjoys a variety of music but he really wanted to learn how to compose his own dance/ electronic music, and Theo was the perfect match!
Theo and Elijah meet weekly via zoom to work on new song ideas together and have been able to complete and upload songs to to Elijah’s SoundCloud account where he shares them proudly with his peers.
Our experience working with Theo has been nothing short of amazing. He is a super friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable music instructor. Overall a 10/10.

Over the four years that I have been taking lessons in DJing and producing with Theo, I have learned an incredible amount. The experience and lessons I’ve learned in creativity, software usage, and how to market myself as a producer have proved invaluable.
Theo transformed me from a kid messing around on GarageBand to a DJ who is able to create professional and great sounding songs, properly mix songs to an industry standard, and release them for the world to hear.
Over the course of my years with Theo, I won remix competitions, released songs on band camp, and was able to put two collections of songs together. I could not recommend him more as a teacher, friend, and excellent DJ.
