What You'll Learn
Ableton Rhythm in Electronic Music
This course is ideal for any electronic musician who wants to understand (visually and intellectually) how to create both familiar/standard beats AND innovative/original beats. From the basics on up, this course will expand your understanding of rhythms and inspire you to reinvent your beats (and maybe make a breakthrough on that old track :).
Where You’ll Start…
We’ll kick things off with a primer on essential beat/time concepts like duple, triple and beats. Then, we’ll explore polyrhythms, humanizing and use what we learn to construct House, Garage and 2 Step beats.
Design Better Beats
I’ve been an electronic musician and performer since the days of Ableton 4 and this course encapsulates rhythm fundamentals that every beginner electronic musician needs to know. I’ve learned how to capture beats more easily on Push 2 and how to keep beats feeling human, without them sounding too imperfect…
When You’re Finished…
By the time you’ve finished this course, you’ll have created 3 great beats – House, UK Garage and 2 Step. You’ll understand how to program beats from scratch AND how to use delays, humanizing, polyrhythms and randomizing capabilities in Ableton to enhance your beats.

What students say...
Polyrhythms are amazing!
I had no idea what I was looking for until your videos on polyrhythm. Its simple to understand, but I didn’t go to music school and I wouldn’t know how to do it. Worth it just for that.
