subSine | Academy of Electronic Music Reviews 82

This was my 3rd time at Shoogle and it certainly won’t be my last. From start to finish it was an absolute pleasure being there. Simons knowledge in Ableton is second to none,aswell as his knowledge and expertise in electronic music production in general. The classes are taught in a friendly and engaging manner and nothing is too much hassle for him. I honestly can’t recommend Shoogle highly enough. With detailed and structured course notes and access to online tuition,every base is thoroughly covered. I started out with no knowledge of Ableton at all and now I’m aiming to get tracks finished and sent out to labels. Anyone looking to further themselves in electronic music production needs to get signed up for a Shoogle course asap.

I've just completed the Ableton Producer Weekender course at Shoogle with Simon Stokes providing expert tuition in a fun, relaxed and informal manner.

The course content is vast and with the course spread over 16 hours in two days, there is plenty to keep you on your toes.

Simons' ability as a teacher is second to none. His style is easy to follow, even for a novice like me.

I feel on the back of the Introducer course, my level has gone up significantly whereby I'm equipped with knowledge to produce decent material.

Of course, included with the course are detailed notes which you can use at home to really supplement and reinforce the in-class training.There is also an super active Facebook group where past attendees share a multitude of information, networking, and generally support each other, which in itself is a great help.

All that's left for me to say is.... What are you waiting for? Get yourself booked up and enjoy learning an excellentt program with an expert tutor guiding you through.

Fantastic courses, led by industry experts. Courses progressively more advanced, each going in the right level of detail, well paced, with great support and its own community. Would give six stars if I could!

The best investment I've ever made in myself. A fun, informative course pitched at exactly the right level with an experienced instructor who's enthusiasm is infectious. Already signing up for the next course. Recommended for everyone.

I purchased the online training course for Ableton Live and have spent the last few months watching the lessons several times over. Simon does a fantastic job of explaining the workings of Ableton and also throws in many useful tips for shortcuts, creativity and music production in general. He has an excellent teaching style and really leaves you excited to practice what has been learned. I think I have watched several of the videos about 4 times over at this point and I think I learn something new each time. Really has been the best money I have spent in terms of learning the software. I should add that even if you have no experience in music production, this course will have you up and running in no time.
My only regret now is that living in Canada, it would be difficult to attend one of the in person training courses that Shoogle offer. Based on the online course, the in person training must be really special.
Highly recommended.

The guys have a huge amount of knowledge covering the spectrum of electronic music production. Very friendly, informal and interactive. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to further their production skills.

The courses at shoogle studios are excellent, they have helped me get from knowing nothing about music production to getting full tracks finished. Would highly recommend the course. Simon and all of the teachers are very welcoming and understanding, they have loads of knowledge and are more than happy to take the time to make sure you understand everything. 10 our of 10 for any course shoogle run

Shoogle was amazing. Very chilled but very informative, so lucky to have it here in glasgow

Learnt so much from the guys and have a great bunch of people who can help you on your music creating journey

Friendly and relaxed environment, left with the knowledge to progress my music to the next level. Great teacher as well 😊

Excellent setting, teacher and knowledge. Would highly recommend. A+

The Shoogle courses are fantastic both online and in class. Simon has a great knack for teaching and making everything enjoyable and easy to learn. Top man!!

Simon is a fantastic tutor who knows Ableton and music production inside out. Would thoroughly recommend the courses here - well designed and delivered.

Amazing experience learning music production skills. Well constructed courses in a friendly and relaxed environment, an absolute joy to attend Shoogle Studios.

Met a heap of new friends and gained knowledge from industry leaders, cannot recommend highly enough :)

Such a brilliant course! It got me to a point where I could experiment and progress independently. Simon also makes everything seem very easy which is a bonus.

Amazing course! Simon is extremely approachable, helpful, encouraging and inspiring. The content is spot on too! The only advice I would give is to do the course when you have nothing else on so you can give it your all - I did the producer course while I was in my last year of uni and I didnt take full advantage - no fault of shoogles though, only my own.

Couldn’t recommend Shoogle Studios and Simon enough, I went in with a decent amount of knowledge of audio editing/mixing but always struggled to produce music of my own. The introducer course filled in all the blanks and left me confident enough to put the work in and start making music!

completed the online course and the evening producer course, excellent all round from me.
for any one interested in learning how to write/produce music of any genre check out Shoogle Studios, very friendly staff and tutors with excellent content and delivery.

simons class creates a nice network of friends I've even teamed up with a fellow student off the back of the course, many thanks to Simon and the Shoogle team

Great course, tutor and people. 9 weeks of fun, learning and discovering new ideas.

A must have for all aspiring music producers!

An excellent choice if you want to learn all there is to know about using Ableton to produce. Excellent tutors and a great community branching out from it too
