I’m working through the Online Ableton Course so far, but I’ve already done tuition at the school. What’s interesting is that it does take a moment for the penny to drop, and I like the pauses you have left in. It works very well for beginners.

BBC - DJ Mary Anne Hobbs

When I look back at my experiences in School of Electronic Music, there is no doubt that those were some of the most crucial stages in my development. The staff don’t forget you either which makes it all the more special.

Waseem Faraz-Butt

I’ve achieved many life long goals as a result of studying at SEM. I’ve released my first independent track, signed to a well-known Artist Management company and have been lucky enough to be playing at Glastonbury. It’s a dream come true.

Paul Stevens

I would like to thank DJ Mark One for a magical day that I attended on the DJ Taster course. I would also like to point out to his management team what a superb job he does, he’s an excellent ambassador for the school and truly inspirational.

Chris Watson

I really enjoyed today’s lesson. I loved witnessing how you made that track sound so much better and the idea of me doing that in the future is really exciting. Really looking forward to the coming weeks.

Mark Harris

I strongly feel that you can’t put a price on face to face tuition rather then books, websites, magazines and so on. The staff at SEM are some of the best in their fields and you will learn from every word they speak so take lots of notes!
