Beats & Rhymes
Beats & RhymesWithin the Beats & Rhymes profile, there is a strong emphasis on creating, producing, recording and publishing. You work on your own identity as an artist and/or producer, build a relevant network and graduate with a product.
Based on your personal development plan, we determine the order in which you will work on your learning objectives during your lessons. Depending on your specialisation, you will also follow components within the ArtEZ Academy of Pop Music program and you will work closely with other artists and producers, both within and outside ArtEZ.
Your teachers are leading within the industry and can tell you from practice how you can optimally improve yourself. Guest lecturers come along for special parts.
