Beat Lab Academy™

Beat Lab Academy is a super well-​rounded music production school that equips you with the necessary tools to not only learn the ins and outs of using Ableton, but also how to apply the program in a performance setting, and easily grasp onto music theory tricks and techniques that honestly, in the long run take your production skills to the next level.
Really cool that they offer the option to take 3 levels one at a time or all together, and prices were super reasonable given the amount of things you learn throughout this experience. I highly recommend tho, taking all 3 levels as each has extremely helpful tools/​materials that you will constantly use once you graduate.
Yeuda — head of education and founder of Beat Lab is for sure the spirit of this academy. Hands down one of the brightest, most passionate, but also genuine professors you will encounter. Knows absurd amounts of things about Ableton, music theory, the music industry etc, and was always an open book for his students. Being part of this academy felt like having an extended family. This place was the first instance where I showed my original music/​work to people and it felt safe, nurturing, but also demanding of you doing your best as an artist.
Come here and be ready for your expectations to be surpassed! You won’t regret it!

Beatlab was incredibly helpful to me even as an experienced producer. Yeuda and Ryan’s quick-​paced teaching not only gave me exclusive knowledge about Ableton and production tips but also confidence in myself for the future of my music career. I never left uninspired with the useful information given in class especially after the Ableton jams that were highlights of my week. An extremely unique way of learning music theory and using the computer as an instrument rather than only a tool while enjoying an experience with class mates. I made connections and great friends through this great school and I recommend Beatlab to any aspiring producer!

There are two main reasons that I would suggest taking classes at BeatLab Academy. 1^st and foremost: if you really want to learn about electronic music production, this is definitely the place to go. Yueda and the rest of the teaching staff really know their stuff! He knows all the ins and outs of Ableton (which also correlates to other DAWs). Even if you have the vaguest of ideas in your head, the teaching staff will direct you into bringing those sounds to life. My production abilities have exponentially increased in my time at the school. Moving on, the 2^nd reason BeatLab is the place to be, is because you are truly surrounded by an amazing group of producers. By the end of the class, you have a new family in this music production world which i find to be crucial to development and success in this field. Yueda makes sure everyone that takes this class is serious about music production, which creates a great classroom dynamic as well as a network of musicians and producers who you can collaborate with and bounce ideas of off. In sum, I LOVE BEATLAB!!, and I’m blessed for having the opportunity to have taken classes there. I would 100% recommend this school to anyone interested in taking their music to the next level!!!

Beat Lab is way more than a music production school. It is a community of musicians that pushed me to elevate my craft. Yes, Beat Lab instructors helped me to become a more skilled producer. But even more important than that was the support I got from the entire Beat Lab staff and family. There is something incredibly valuable about being in a community that views me as an artist. The entire experience has been incredibly empowering in ways I hadn’t even guessed. I love that it hasn’t ended. I am still part of Beat Lab even after finishing my classes. That kind of music community is very rare and very powerful.

Beatlab is on the cutting edge of EDM production and I would recommend the training to anyone who is serious about becoming an EDM producer! I enjoyed the course I took and learned a vast wealth of knowledge from each lesson that will take many months to grow into. You won’t be disappointed!

Was at a crossroads point in my life wether to continue learning music production on ableton via youtube videos and online tutorials or make the decision to go to school again. I can honestly say that the Beat Lab Academy has speeded up my production game so fast that if I had decided to keep learning online it would have taken me years to get to my level of understanding music production today. Not only was the class useful for learning Ableton but also learning music theory in general. Yeuda is the illest teacher around and breaks everything down so simple till you get it. and shoutout to Larry for being the illest Beat Lab Rep as well.

If your looking to learn a lot about electronic music production & music in general in a short amount of time. Then Beat Lab Academy might be for you! Yeuda is an amazing teacher & Beat Lab also hosts a slew of other amazingly talented & Artist/​teachers that are constantly touring & breaking the boundaries of creating music with midi & hardware.
I myself have been a DJ in the electronic scene since 2001 & felt it was time to take my own production more seriously. I met them through Instagram & after a short courtship, did a drop in class & signed up 2 weeks later! Best thing i did for myself in the past 3 years. Their knowledge of Ableton & the interworking of VST’s is invaluable. I’m still learning things even after i graduated from their program. Very small class sizes make sure that each student get’s their questions answered & talent concerns alleviated & benefitted in a short amount of time.
I wish i was in class year round to learn with Yeuda & the other teachers. It was more then just gaining a new teacher & going to school. It has been an invigorating experience of broadening my horizons & making many new friends & connections. I’ve even gotten gigs from connections i made here.
I highly suggest you do a drop in class & checkout what your missing!
Shout out to Larry!!!

Where do I begin? The running joke among my friends is how long will it take me when I meet a new person to start talking about Beat Lab. So, apologies to my friends, but I talk about it a lot. I took the semester class (levels 1, 2, and 3) and couldn’t be more pleased with with the experience. Yeuda, the teacher/​co-​founder is THE MAN. He knows everything about Ableton and has a way of explaining things that makes complex topics seem simple. Larry (the other co-​founder) and Yeuda are always there to help. When I’m at home working on a project and get stuck, I can shoot Yeuda an email, call them up, or pop by get some help. Larry even met me there on a Saturday to let me do some vox recording. They really go above and beyond.
Also, when you join Beat Lab you’re not just another student, but part of the fam. The community is so supportive, inspiring, and FUN! Larry keeps folks in the loop about what’s going on around town, and who has shows. People are always making some sick beats, sharing good grooves and tips, and looking to collab.
Also, also, last thing I’ll say is that it’s great for all levels. I was totally new to Ableton and others had been doing it for five years, but we all learned a ton. Beat Lab is the s**t, and if you want to ask questions to a former student, feel free to shoot me a message.

An amazing music theory and Ableton production course taught by one of the most intelligent, passionate, and caring instructors you will encounter! No matter what level of music/​beat making you are at, if you want to learn more than you know now about everything musically, this is the place to be. Yeuda, the co-​founder and instructor teaches a very intense class to get you involved and making your own music right away. He will be your biggest inspiration and will push you further than you ever think you could go! I would highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to forward their music making dreams and turn them into reality! Thank you Yeuda, Larry, Paul and Ryan! You guys are the best!
