Reviews of subSine | Academy of Electronic Music

Having spent countless hours watching YouTube tutorials and attempting to make things in Ableton to no fruition, the Creator course helped me produce a decent track from start to finish. I've learnt a lot more than I expected over 10 weeks, and truly felt part of the community. Simon is an exceptional tutor - really supportive and knowledgeable. The quality of service and learning you get for that price is an absolute bargain. Can't wait to do the next level!
L. N.
This training academy is superb! So glad I chose subsine for my ableton journey. No amount of YouTube could come close to the depth Simon goes into in the courses. Such a relaxed class room and user friendly online workshops to support that. Love it. Would highly recommend. Top class

I'm very new to Ableton and up until this course, I'd just been winging it with the manual and YouTube videos. I can't recommend subSine's 10 week Creator Course highly enough. It was everything I hoped it would be; the structure and the way it was presented means I've improved my knowledge and skillset massively. Thanks to Simon's insights and expertise, I'm now ready to finish tracks with confidence.
The studio classes were so laid back with a room full of passionate, music heads who were all keen to learn.
Thanks Simon, I hope to be back for the next course soon.

I recently completed the Ableton Creator course at Subsine Academy. It was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Simon was incredibly supportive throughout and explained the various topics so well. The the flow of the course and depth of information taught was perfectly pitched. My confidence grew rapidly on the course and I was amazed at how my knowledge and ability had developed over the 10 weeks! Can’t recommend it enough!
s. j.
My first experience of subSine Academy was at the beginning of first lockdown after purchasing an online creators course with in-depth training on how to write and structure a track from scratch, start to finish.
Each Module was broke down into easy to follow short video tutorials and taught by Simon effortlessly to help me understand Ableton and how to use it properly.
From then I have just completed the producers course and will be joining the artists course later this year to progress further.
If anyone is thinking of joining a music academy then don't hesitate. This is the one!
Best decision I made.
L. S.
I was recommended by a friend to sign up for the creator course with subsine academy and I’m very happy I have just recently completed it. I began the course having never used Ableton before and now have a comprehensive understanding of how things work. Simon is a great artist and teacher with a lot of experience who goes above and beyond to ensure everyone in the class is getting the most out of their productions. With quality feed back, the ability to ask any questions you have along with a bunch of new stuff to work on every week. If you are just starting out or have been producing for a while and want to sharpen your skills learning new things, Simon is your guy! I have now booked the producer course and cant wait to continue to improve my music production. 100% recommend booking up!
N. W. (.
I had a video-session with Simon Stokes, who allowed me to bring forward a couple of my Ableton Live projects and free reign to choose what aspects of the craft of producing I wanted to go over or learn more about. Super friendly and down to earth teaching style and overall a great introduction to subSine. I would encourage anyone looking to sharpen their craft to consider giving these guys a shout. I had a really good experience and will be back for more when the time comes.
C. C.
Had an amazing experience at Shoogle Studios undertaking the introducer and producer courses. Simon Stokes is a fantastic tutor and his knowledge, enthusiasm and experience are second to none! Classes are extremely relaxed where you learn and practice new techniques in a friendly and encouraging environment alongside like minded people. If you are interested in turning your musical desires into reality then Simon Stokes is the man to see and Shoogle Studios is the place to go!! Cannot recommend highly enough! An extraordinary experience!!! :D
A. W.
As someone starting from a low knowledge base Simon was able to take us through the fundamentals of abelton with great skill and warmth. I think I would have spent ages looking at u tube tutorials and wasted a lot of time. Simon's approach is to build your skills from the ground up. Also really enjoyable to be in a class with others. Simon is a great teacher who imparts his love of music through his course. If you want to learn Abelton this is the place to go.
D. D.
If you want to learn how to use Ableton Live, make and finish tracks from standing still cold then get booked up now!
If you’ve dabbled or experienced in music production before get ready for a WORLD of difference in your workflow and understanding of Ableton Live.
The main man Simon’s outlook and genuine interest in your learning will make you feel instantly at ease and enable you to flourish with Ableton Live. Simon’s encyclopaedic knowledge is on tap as soon as you step into the subSine Academy journey and musical family.
From my very personal experience – Taking these courses has not only shown me how to make music with Ableton Live starting as a complete beginner, it has allowed me to take my life in a whole other and exciting direction. Simon provides dreamscape stuff – Get booked up.

I was hoping to sign up to the Soma Skool but as I live quite far away at the moment (Aberdeen) it just wasn't practical for me. Instead I am now a good few sessions into a period of 1-1 tuition from Simon at Shoogle Studios and I'm loving it. Simon is a great tutor, understands his craft completely and is engaging to be taught by. I've only had 3 1-1 sessions and I'm already learning a lot about electronic music production. The studio is also a superb place to be. Looking forward to lots more Studio sessions. I'm pretty much a beginner when it comes to music production and Simon has put me at ease totally. Highly Recommended!
C. M.
I can't recommend Shoogle Studios highly enough. I'm also studying the beginners electronic music production course and I'm really enjoying it.
The course is extremely well put together and it's a great environment to learn in, with no pressure, and the opportunity to ask questions with no fear if you're unsure of something. The course notes put together are extremely in depth, and give you the confidence to crack on at home.
Simon as a tutor is also very easy going and knowledgeable, and puts the whole class at ease and is always keen to learn a hand in practical time and shows interest in everyones project.
L. Y. (.
Simon is an absolute gent of a man. His knowledge shows with every question you ask him and he provides a very comfortable environment to learn in. Will be looking at booking again soon!
M. T.
If you're looking at any of the courses then go for it, you won't regret it. I have just finished the Ableton live-introducer course and I highly recommend it. As much as everyone would like to think they can teach themselves how to do everything online nowadays it will never be like the classes you will go to here. It's so worth the money and your time. Simon is a very knowledgable teacher who obviously has many years of experience. He will teach you everything step by step in the right order where it's not confusing or hard to understand at all. He will also give you many notes at the end of each class based on that session that you can always refer to. To top that off you can also access the online courses for reference if you get stuck. It's the whole package really. It was the best class I have ever been to and Simon is the best teacher I have ever had.
S. H.
I can not properly explain how great a tutor Simon is & the class he runs at his award winning studio.
I attended the Introducer course and now have gone on to secure numerous releases with several labels.
For me the classes were fun,interesting and very informative, this course is unique in the sense that it specifically gets into the nitty gritty of producing and covers perfectly all the elements of Ableton that you need to know to get you started producing straight out the box.
This course is perfect for all levels of producers whether you are new to production or just want to learn how a professional artist uses Ableton to create music.
Simon is a very helpful and patient person able to deal with students of variable skill levels all at the same time, always lending his ear for questions and going above board helping with practical advice and realistic expectations of what to expect in the industry.
I was a huge fan of Petrichor before attending Simon's class and had been producing for a while on my own, but needed the knowledge & confidence that i found from attending Soma Skool to move up a gear and start sending out demo's.
I hope anyone reading this has already booked a place on this course because if not you are missing out for sure. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to become involved in producing music as it is made easy by Simon and his method of teaching is tailored to each individual student.He even manages to listen to and feedback honestly to each and every student.
The studio itself is a fantastic professional place to learn as it also gives you a taste of what to expect from a pro recording studio.
I hope to be able to do the Producer course as i am sure i would gain lot's of invaluable knowledge and tip's and will be doing this as soon as possible.Because i live in the Scottish Borders and had to travel a distance every week to attend in Glasgow, i may even consider the great weekender courses on offer as this would be perfect for me or anyone who lives away like me, or works away from home etc. I wish to recommend this course to everyone that is considering music as a career or even a hobby ,as this just "turns up the bass" on any other courses available.
Simon's work as an artist might give you a clue as to what to expect and hope that you book up and go along for yourself and see what i mean.
I wish to Thank Simon for all his help ,knowledge and continued support as this was far more than i ever expected and will be forever grateful
Get yourself to Soma Skool you will love every second of it !
5 Stars from me for sure.

Just finished the excellent evening Introducer course. I’d been meaning to enrol in Shoogle for a while, but kept wanting to finish various free online courses first, got distracted, back to square one, repeat. If you’ve been putting it off too, just do it, you won’t regret it. I only wish I’d done it sooner, learned more in the first week of this course than I did in two years.
About the course itself, I loved everything about it. Simon is a brilliant teacher, incredibly knowledgeable and easy going with a really engaging teaching style. The class environment was also great to learn in, enjoyed being able to share my progress with like-minded people each week. Was a good laugh too!
I have left this course genuinely inspired and now hooked on music production (and subsequently signed up to the Producer course).
Cheers Simon!

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.

Great service and, tutorials. Simon is an excellent tutor with in depth knowledge using Ableton. Plus he makes the process easy to understand and more importantly enjoyable which music production should be.

I attended the Weekend Producer Course at Shoogle Studios in February 2017. Simon Stokes is both an incredibly adept musician and a fantastic tutor, making this course absolutely essential for anyone interested in taking their knowledge of Ableton and music production to the next level. Simon has a particular talent for taking quite complex topics and presenting them with an ease of understanding to the group, and has really helped me improve my understanding of Live’s inner workings.
Over the two-day course a huge volume of material was covered, but it always felt like there was time to explore tangents, questions and ideas from the group. Simon was able to give really useful advice on pretty much everything; complex sound design, field recording in sound design, live set-ups, correct microphone choice, working with and processing audio, click tracks for live bands – the list goes on. For me it’s his insider knowledge and wealth of musical experience that makes the course so valuable.
I simply cannot recommend this highly enough!
Thanks Simon!

If you are interested in or have dabbled in any music production using digital audio workstations such as Ableton and would like to learn more then you should take up a class at subSine academy. The courses on offer are tailored to whatever level you are currently at in making electronic based music production from beginner through to mastering or even modular synthesis/sound design. Each programme is taught by highly experienced tutors running either as one evening a week for nine weeks or condensed into two full day weekenders, whatever suits for time and travel. Every stage of learning is supplemented with easy to refer to comprehensive course notes and students are given practical tasks to create their own material based off what they've learnt during each stage of the lessons. You will also meet a network of likeminded people who all share the same passion in music irrelevant of genre/influences. Following on from completing one of the courses you can share your ideas, troubleshoot problems with tutors/students through the subSine forums and have the opportunity for your own music to be released on the subSine label and or have it played on their own radio show. Not only this but Simon's teaching style is totally inclusive, it's such a relaxed atmosphere and I’ve made some good friends along the way. Having wanted to learn how to make electronic music for 20 years previously and after sitting all of the courses it has easily been the most fun learning experience I've ever had so couldn't recommend subSine academy enough.

Fantastic experience learning with Simon at Shoogle Studios. The course provides an extensive, personalised look into how to improve your production skills. The coursework was challenging, yet attainable, and has personally helped me on my journey as a producer. For anyone looking for a personalised, comprehensive production course run by some of the best in the business, i highly recommend giving Simon and the team at Shoogle Studios a shout!
C. M.
I've recently completed the Introduction and Producer weekend crash courses, and would highly recommend visiting Shoogle to anyone interested in electronic music production. Simon is a fantastic teacher whose knowledge and passion really shine through, I will most certainly be back in the future!
T. P.
I started the introducer course off with no real teaching experience on DAW's other than the occasional youtube video and playing around with it myself. The best thing I found for me from the course was getting information in the order you should be learning it. Online 'How to' videos are great but they seldom offer any real constructive progression, this is where I found this course excelled giving me the right knowledge in the correct order I needed to learn it.
Simon is a fantastic teacher and great guy, can honestly say there wasn't a single minute of the 8 weeks where I felt bored and any problems myself or the rest of the class had he helped to solve quickly and easily. His vast knowledge of the program shows and with someone who has many releases and is a Ableton Certified trainer your definitely going to be learning from someone who knows how to use the program to its full potential.
Highly recommend it to anyone interested in becoming confident in the use of Ableton Live or furthering there skills on the Producers course.
R. S.
Simon Stokes is very welcoming, honest and encouraging as a tutor. It was great having someone of his experience and knowledge to ask any questions and he was always able to answer them in a way that was clear to me. The course provided me with a great insight in to the techniques and skills of producing electronic music and exactly what was needed to get started and enjoy it. The environment made the learning process fun and it was inspiring to be around like-minded, passionate people.
Q. C. E.
I have attempted to make music for over 15 years, using a variety of hardware and software. I have used Ableton on and off for the last 10 years but decided to move things up a notch and get some professional, guidance to support my learning and development. I have completed the introducer course and learned lots of things I have being doing wrong or could have been doing a lot more efficiently. Simon is a fantastic teacher and I have left with more confidence and feel motivated to eventually see what I can achieve with hard work and focus.
I have already signed up for the next course and would highly recommend this for anyone seriously interested in making electronic music.
C. M.
Just finished (graduated i would say) my beginners 8 week course from Ableton, taught by Simon Stokes. The course is well laid out as are the course notes. Simon takes you further and further into music production week by week and is always very understanding and helpful when you become stuck or have problems. His knowledge of electronic music and Ableton shines through but his attitude to teaching doesn't make it daunting for beginners to ask questions or pick his brain.
The studios has very good facilities and the learning room is ideal for this course. Course notes are handed out each week but the class isn't about reading, it's about learning with the notes to aid you when you go home.
All in all I would recommend this course to anyone interested in making electronic dance music and wondering where to start.
F. M.
Just recently finished the Live Introducer course with Simon at Shoogle Studios and loved it.
Simon is a great guy and teacher who will make what ever time he can available to get you making your own tunes over the lessons. Always understanding to work commitments and never felt like there was too much information for me to handle. When having struggled with YouTube videos for years finally found a night course that didn't disappoint and now know my way around Ableton. Plenty of notes to look back on if i need to and having the Facebook page to get on to other students and Simon is a great add on. Harvey McKay came in for a lesson too and really opened my eyes to how flexible and how many different ways there are to use Live again all explained to a level I could understand.
I can't thank Simon enough for getting me inspired and I will be attending another block of lessons in the future.
P. H.
Having done both the introducer & producer courses, I have to say they were both excellent. Simon Stokes is an excellent teacher and the course formats are great, building up knowledge in a way that makes sense. Highly recommend these courses if you're looking to learn ableton and/or improve your production techniques.
J. R.
Literally couldnt recommend Soma Skool any higher. I done the ableton introducer course, I was a complete novice to music production/using a DAW. I've procrastinated for a long time about making music and figured this course might be the kick into gear I needed. I now have a seriously comprehensive understanding of the software and in the space of 8 weeks, myself and the rest of the class were already putting down full tracks. It's all down to Simon Stokes.
Simon is a wonderful teacher, he's been involved in the electronic music scene for many years. He's an accomplished DJ/Live Act/Producer and Mastering engineer. He has worked with some gigantic names in the scene, Is at the forefront of Soma Records and has toured around the world. He is certified from Ableton headquarters itself in Germany. Having someone so passionate with such vast wealth of experience, who happens to be completely down to earth is invaluable for this sort of thing, where feedback is extremely important. You will instantly feel at ease in Simons class, and you'll rapidly see progress from the first lesson, It will quickly become the highlight of your week.
If you are serious about starting to produce, or already do but want an understanding of Ableton then this course is the perfect way to get the ball rolling. I've already decided to take the next step and do his Advanced course. Outstanding value for money, Get it done! Enjoy
D. M.
This is THE place go and learn about Ableton Live, and electronic music production in general.
I went in knowing noting about Ableton and within weeks I had full tunes, had the confidence to play a gig, and even managed to use it to DIY record my more rock style project too!!!!
Simon explains even the most complex things in easy to understand ways, and is really supportive, friendly, and a great teacher. If only all tutors were like him ha ha!
My advice is if you want to do this course, dont be like me, spending a year deciding if I should go for it - just do it!!! For me, it was worth every single penny :D
M. M.
I've done the Introducer and Producer courses, and the knowledge and insights these courses have provided have been first rate. I've been converted to Ableton and have learnt a huge amount about music production in general. I thought I knew quite a lot about synthesis and sound engineering but Simon has opened my eyes, and ears, to a vast range of new possibilities and techniques. Course notes are excellent and teaching is done in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
C. M.
Before i started the course i had no experience and next to no knowledge of music production. I picked up so much within a couple weeks and felt very comfortable using ableton. Simon is a great teacher and cant speak highly enough about the course within 5 weeks the progress i made was fantastic.
A. B.
Simon is a great teacher with a passion to teach people with all levels of experience. I was a true beginner with Ableton. The work flow, tools and methods learnt across 9 weeks has enabled me to enjoy and be more productive with Ableton. I highly recommend this course.
L. G.
I started Soma Skool at Shoogle Studios about 3 weeks ago and already have learned a lot from Simon. It is a beginners course for making electronic music and each week we are taken step by step on how to make our own music from scratch, this is good as the music you make is your own and is it original. I like how Simon teaches its not a strict working environment he has good banter along the way and makes you feel at ease so you don't hesitate to ask any questions if there is something you don't understand. I also like that we get course notes away with us every week as it means you don't need to spend the class taking a load of notes you can tune in to what he is doing and when you go home you have the notes to refer back to. I have only had 3 sessions so far and already have learned so much so I am looking forward to the remaining 5 sessions to see what Simon has in store for us :)
G. M.
Cant recommend Simon and Sub sine enough. Amazing classes whether you are a total beginner or advanced with Ableton. Been going to Simon for years and has helped me leaps and bounds. The best about!
E. S.
Just completed the Live: Introducer weekend course and I can't recommend it enough. Simon is excellent, clearly has a massive amount of knowledge and paces the course perfectly so that you're pushed the whole time but never feel rushed. He creates a space where you want to share your ideas and getting feedback from everyone is really useful. So much fun, can't wait for the next one.
N.
Ableton's built-in tutorials weren't doing it for me at all but I was really keen to get my head round it and figured it would be money well spent if the Soma Skool Introducer course gave me the skills and knowledge to start having some fun with it. After completing the course I would be happy to recommend it to anyone looking to get started with Ableton, or anyone who can use it but wants to learn a few tricks and maybe gain some more in-depth musical knowledge at the same time. The classroom itself is a cool setting, the course is well structured and it certainly wasn't just me that seemed to be picking things up really quickly.
Simon Stokes is a great teacher - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and down to earth. He must know everything there is to know about Ableton; questions were getting fired at him think and fast most of the time and I don't think anybody caught him out once! It was great to learn from someone who is well respected in the scene and is happy to pass on his skills and knowledge, not just about Ableton but about DJing, promoting and other aspects of the scene, which he was only too happy to do.
Lastly, it was great to meet some like-minded people too and if my objective at the outset was to learn more about Ableton, the fact the whole experience was great fun made it even better and money extremely well spent. If you are thinking about it just do it!
A. B.
I have completed both the nine week introducer class and recently the producer weekender.
Simon mixes (pardon the pun), a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with professional level course content, which I feel sets the standard for electronic music production training.
You will learn what you need to know at Shoogle Studios!
E. M.
Just completed the Ableton Love: Introducer course and enjoyed every minute of it. Simon is a fantastic teacher who explains everything so well and the classes have a really relaxed atmosphere. Learned so much over the course of 7 weeks!
S. L.
Can't recommend this course enough. I always knew there was something missing for me for making music and this was it. Simon is an excellent tutor. I went from never having opened ableton to making my first tune in 4 days. Already signed up for the next one!
a.
Simon's 2-day Producer (Weekender) course is very well structured and provides invaluable information on methods and tools to use in Ableton that I believe can truly make a HUGE difference in any (aspiring or professional) electronic music producers ability and productions in their preferred genre. If, like me, you feel as if you've scrolled through every tutorial on youtube ever uploaded and you can't seem to fill in the gaps - get yourself down to Shoogle Studios and Simon will fill them in for you. 5/5
K. L.
If you want to learn Ableton Live, this is the place to be. The courses, from beginners up to artists, are really well structured, the teaching and support are second to none and the class atmosphere is inspiring.
G. M.
Best thing I've ever done! Simon is an excellent teacher and a talented musician. I have just completed the Producer course after doing the Introducer course earlier this year. I am definitely coming back for more!
B. L.
Without a doubt the best production course I have came across. Very good theory taught and practical every week. Continuous improvement and checkups throughout by the legend Simon Stokes. First class musician and producer, lots to learn from him and I can now safely say that after 9 weeks I am 1000x better than I was before. This course should be double the price to be honest!
F. A.
I've had a such a great experience at subSine | Academy . First when I wanted join to this Academy i was quite worried about my language because English is not my first language. To be honest I've passed some ableton courses in my language before, But couldn't achieve to my goal experience as I could've done at SubSine Academy! Such a positive education with a great teacher Who makes production and ableton so delicious,easy and simple! Would recommend to everyone who want being in the right place.
S. &. S. B. B.
Coming from a DJ background i had a very basic understanding of music production. Working with Simon on the course has totally changed this, I can now make tracks from scratch using a whole variation of techniques and ways to get the sound i want
The learning environment, is very relaxed, easy to digest and most importantly very enjoyable which makes a huge difference.
I would recommend this course to anyone, as you get hands on help from start to finish, loads of free stuff to help you make music, as well as value for money. A certified Ableton producer signed to Soma records and many more labels at that price is just a bargain
LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT
D. P.
I recently completed the Soma Skool Creator course at subSine academy. Being a fan of dance and electronic music since my early teens, this course gave me the ideal insight and knowledge base to finally start getting all those ideas and tunes I’ve had running through my head for years down and out there!
Most importantly you really can tell you’re being taught by a tutor that loves and is as passionate about the music and culture as you are, as well as learning from a very diverse range of students also on the course.
If you’re interested in music production at all this course really is a no brainer. Honestly, talk to the team if you’ve any questions at all. You won’t be made to feel daft and it’s a great friendly and inclusive environment in which to learn.
Safe to say, I’ll be making this music forever now! It is indeed a positive education.
d. l.
My story is!!
For some time now I have been wanting to have a go at this.,I had tried Abelton 8 a couple of years ago and I took the free trial but with pure frustration and my lack of experience of computers and the set up i gave up right away!! i was getting no where with it,
I have always had this interest in what goes into making Electronic music.
I have loved techno for a few years now,I love going to Pressure and gigs seeing the masters at this Art i just want to understand for myself what it takes. I just live for music its every day for me.
I came across Shoogle studios and i had a look through the site and what it had to offer,right away i seen there was a course for Abelton live 9 my prays were answered! Then there was a wee problem for me the days for the course where week days over 4 weeks and with my job and working away from home was just sort of impossible! for me.
I sent a message to Simon Stokes with my problem to witch he replied right away!
Simon told me of a weekend course that was starting this was perfect for me in so many ways.
I am however a total nugget when it comes to computers and tech stuff..
I didn't know how I would get on with this,Simon assured me this was no problem..
I found day 1 very interesting Simon has this instant likability about him.When
I found things where going a bit fast for me it was no problem to ask Simon to go over things again for me. His help through the weekend course was outstanding!! doing the weekend meant throwing 4 weeks into a weekend! Simon is an Amazing teacher ready with what ever question I had for him the man is a total wizard!! there is nothing he doesn't know about Abelton he is
so helpful!!!
On day 2 things really started moving and coming together for me I must say I really enjoyed doing the course if you have an interest in this type of course i strongly recommend you go for it!!! Get in there!!!
A Thousand Thank yous Simon!
M. B.
I’ve done all the weekend courses and it’s the best thing I’ve done for progressing as a producer. I would have given up music production before I even started if I hadn’t of stumbled across these courses.
All the tutors are really helpful and knowledgable so your learning from the best!!
The course is really well structured and some really in depth course notes that are priceless for when you are at home and find you might have forgotten something.
If your thinking of doing a music production course don’t think about this one, just do it... take my word for it you won’t be disappointed:)
C. P.
Worth every penny! Simon is a top guy and knows Ableton inside out. He manages to put even the most complex of topics across in a way that makes it easy to understand.

My time at Soma Skool has been majorly productive and a lot of fun. Simon has a real knack for simplifying whatever he teaches as well as creating an enjoyable atmosphere throughout. I have traveled far afield for similar courses but Soma Skool definitely ticks all the boxes and is right on my doorstep. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to gain valuable knowledge and hands on experience in music production.

This course is 100% tremendous. It's a very welcoming and friendly environment that makes you very comfortable, at ease and inspired to get the very best music and ideas you can get out of yourself.
The music you've been hearing in your head and always wanted to make.

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.

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!

shoogle studios and the soma course has changed my life..after watching hours and hours of tutorials on youtube and getting nowhere...the introducer course is broken down into 8 weeks with all the basics and make it 100 times easier...one year later and i have started working with digital groove records and played two nights in space ibiza at carl cox's music in revolution with more releases due out next year..total dream come true....big thanks to simon stokes who is not only one of the best producers out there he is also a great teacher with his produtions tips and teaching skills.
onwards and upwards for shoogle studios and the soma course

You will not be disappointed if you attend Simon's course! All the Ableton beginner lessons at Shoogle Studios were supplemented with step by step support instructions for reference at a later date if required.
Simon is passionate about what he does and understands what your influences are then helps to shape the sound you're trying to create. He is very encouraging and gives you loads of tips on how to develop your music to keep the listener interested.
If you want to learn how to create your own electronic music using Ableton then this is the course for you.
Thanks for all your support Simon :-)
