My thoughts on Beat Academy Beat Academy has been a great addition to my music production education. From the library of resources, to the remakes, to the live listening feedback sessions, and even the community feedback. I've learned a ton from Ill Factor, and really like the way he teaches, and explains what he's demonstrating. I also really appreciate his desire to raise up other producers. It has been a safe place to grow and show my work, and ask questions. I also appreciate that Beat Academy has also addressed issues like creative ruts, self esteem and rejection. It's all been really valuable information. Beat Academy is a solid resource that I reach for again and again on my production journey.

Best Online Music Production Resource ill Factor (Ivan Corraliza) is a great mentor and tutor and he has put together a wonderful platform where you can learn everything you need for a successful music career whatever your style. The Instructional/How To and Breakdown videos are filled with endlessly useful tips and tricks on top of core skills which will last you a lifetime. There is a great community with lots of peer support and encouragement and there are regular opportunities posted to submit your work for consideration in national and international projects. I genuinely believe this may be the only resource you need to elevate your music to places higher than you've imagined. Get on board!

My experience with Beat Academy has… My experience with Beat Academy has been great! Beat Academy is a very hands on community who’s members support you by providing feedback. There are plenty of opportunities to collab along with professional syncing opportunities with some big names in the industry. We also participate in monthly calls where we can have a song played and receive live feedback from our teacher Ill Factor, a Grammy winner producer. He’s very knowledgeable about music production and shares liberally on how to improve. There are plenty of courses to take at your own pace on varies subjects too! I won a contest and free membership which was awesome! All around it’s a wonderful community to be apart of as a artist. I’m new to music production and have learned a great deal. Real opportunities. If your thinking about it, it’s DEFINITELY worth it.

Why I have stuck with Beat Academy I had looked at some other music websites before and they were good, but I didn't hang with them. I came across Beat academy through a web search, signed up and have stuck with it since. Ivan is a very competent producer and a great teacher to go with it. I love his monthly song critique meets on line. whether your song or others are critiqued, I always learn a lot stuff I can be aware of and take to my own music. Ivan is passionate about what he does, loves encouraging people and is never disrespectful to any one. He is also honest and holds you to industry standards. the community is great to hang out with and is another source to encourage and receive encouragement from peers. B.A also provides opportunities to take on projects, collaborations and some professional opportunities. I could go on, but I don't want to write a novel. I would point any one who is serious about music production to sign up to Beat Academy.

I really enjoyed this Program I really enjoyed this Program. Some of my huge take aways was to build relationships with people that like creating music like me and how important the Motif is to music. The things I would have like to have seen; that everyones music put into the DAW so we can solo the songs and hear the difference and make adjustments (like oh wow I like how this person kick or bass sounds etc; this would have been definitely helpful during mastering week) even though we got all of our songs reviewed, comparing the ‘sonics’ and others song choices a little closer would have been more efficient and effective. I believe one of the things that the music community ‘as a whole’ is missing is “yeah everyone can hear what plugin or vst that pro is using, but the sound selection and sonic comprehension is just as important” and that should have been the main driving point because how sounds are sitting and moving inside the speakers are what drives people to listen.
