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 love Beat Academy I love Beat Academy! The community is constantly growing and learning how to serve each other better. There are always new breakdowns, challenges, and the membership is genuinely engaged in trying to support each other. The community is well moderated and sets values of respect, encouragement, trust, and growth. 10/10 community and content.

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.

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.

Beat Academy is awesome Beat Academy is awesome! I started as a regular member and went on to the Elevate course. At first I didn't want to invest in myself but my family convinced me to do so and it was worth every single dollar. Ill Factor is an amazing mentor and the guest mentors were great too! My productions really improved to a point that I'm actually considering releasing some songs.
