Songwriter & Producer

Songwriter & Producer

You choose this profile when your heart is more in the basis for songs, in writing top melodies, lyrics and song forms. You probably play guitar or piano, but also consider your laptop as your instrument. Here you learn how to deliver your songs as a perfect music production. 

Hands-on profile

It is useful if you play an instrument, but you mainly choose this profile if building tracks (or beats) as well as writing songs is your thing. Composing in every possible style often involves co-writing, such as in partnership with vocalists and studio musicians from the Academy of Pop Music of the ArtEZ Academy of Music, as well as with artists from professional practice. You can also work on assignment for publishers like Cloud9 or MassiveMusic. You also learn how to get the best vocal performance from an artist or how to compress a kickdrum. In short, a practice-oriented, hands-on profile which prepares you for the music business of today!
