Please note: this course is available in two versions. You can register for the course on location at CREA or you can register for the online version which you can do from home. The content of both options is the same. Below, we will indicate how the online course differs from the physical course.
Electronic music exists in many forms – from techno, ambient, deep house, minimal, electronica, dubstep, techno-house, hip hop and acid to more exotic forms – and can be summarised as all music in which electronic sounds and beats play a role.
The Netherlands is internationally known for its export product: Dutch dance music. In this course, we will also look across borders: what happens in Berlin and London, for example?
What will you do?
You will learn to create electronic music on the computer, i.e. to compose, produce and creatively manipulate it. Step-by-step, in a well-founded and creative manner, you will learn to use the software package Ableton Live. The course is suitable for upcoming producer talents, creative laptop DJs and singer-songwriters who want to record and support their songs electronically.
How will we proceed?
The course consists of three parts: making beats and sounds (synthesis), distorting existing material and mixing it.
What do you need?
If you register for the online version, you will work from home on your own computer. You will need to have your own Ableton software. You can download and install a 90-day trial version from the Ableton website which will allow you to follow a full 8-week course (it is best to do this just before the start of the course).
What do you need to know?
Everyone is welcome.
