You've got an idea for a tune. Now what? 

​

You hear it in your head. That drop. That bassline. The way it would sound if you could just... make it real. 

​

But every time you open a DAW (if you even know what a DAW is), you're met with a wall of buttons, plugins, and YouTube tutorials that explain everything except the one thing you actually need to know. 

​

Here's the truth: you don't need more tutorials. You need someone who knows what they're doing to sit with you and teach you how to do it. 

​

That's what OTD Academy's Music Production lessons are. 

​​​

One-to-one sessions. Bespoke to your goals. Taught by producers who've released tracks on major labels, Spotify, and Soundcloud. 

​

You'll learn every stage of the process: beat-making, arrangement, sound design, mixing, mastering, while staying true to your own creative style. No generic "follow this template" nonsense.  

​

Your sound.  

​

Your vision.  

​

Professional guidance to help you bring it to life. 

​

Within your first year, you'll know how to create your own tunes. Guaranteed. Not "sort of finish something you're embarrassed by" actually complete tracks you're proud to share, upload, or release (and we will teach you how and where to release them). 

​

Our tutors have done this professionally. They've released music. They've built careers from it. And they'll teach you the same techniques they use, adapted to your genre, your pace, and your creative identity. 

​​​

The biggest barrier? "I don't have the software." 

​

We've got you covered. Sessions take place in our fully equipped production studio at the OTD Bunker in Creslow. Industry-standard software and hardware. You don't need to own anything to get started.  

​

You just need to show up. 

​

Everything you learn is transferable. Ableton, Logic, FL Studio – the principles stay the same. So, when you do invest in your own setup, you'll already know how to use it. 

​​​​

Here's what changes after a few lessons: 

​​

You go from staring at a blank project file to actually finishing ideas. You understand what you're doing and why. You stop second-guessing every decision and start making music that sounds the way you want it to sound. 

​

And within a year? You'll have completed your first full track. Ready for streaming platforms, live performances, or even release on OTD's own labels. 

​​​

This is for you if: 

​

• You've got ideas but don't know how to execute them 

• You're tired of half-finished projects sitting on your hard drive 

• You want to learn production properly, not just copy what someone else did 

• You're ready to create music you're actually proud of 

​

Your first tune starts here.
