Electronic Music Academy | Nashville

Learn to produce the kind of quality electronic music you love from scratch in small classes through Garnish Music Production's Academy Program supported by Ableton, Native Instruments, and Apple. We begin by familiarizing students with their music production software, and take them through to mastering their finished EP to a professional standard. In this program at our boutique facility, students will benefit from our superior roster of instructors, including certified trainers and Grammy-winners, who will share their knowledge and techniques with you.

In Nashville, a city built on songwriting and recording, this course is taught by producers who work in its studios. Classes are small and hands-on, and the same sessions are available live online, using our specialist music collaboration software, Muse.

Student reviews.

“I went to school at Stanford for three years and was been taught by many great professors, but I'm thoroughly convinced that my Ableton teacher in the EMP program is the best teacher I've ever had. The way he mixes new content, exercises, and little projects is really effective and I felt like I could do pretty much whatever I want in Ableton in just 2 weeks.”
