YESSSSS This is like Masterclass but if masterclass did courses I actually was interested in. When I saw Ryan Lott of Son Lux did a course on creating sample based instruments, I had to sign up. It honestly was a game changer for me. I’d always been such a timid user of Kontakt, really not knowing how to do things like create my own patches using my own samples. Now I understand that this is the key to developing sounds that are unique to you. Honestly, it was worth it for this course alone, but then I got into the RJD2 sampling course and that was also great. I can’t even remember how I found this website but I’m so happy I did!

New perspectives to song writing and production I did a 4 week mentorship with Ian Prince. I brought a few song drafts to our intro session and we narrowed down to one track to focus on for the duration of the mentorship. What an absolute joy it was having him as a teacher. He provided such wisdom, insight, and actionable feedback, and opened my ears and mind to new ways of approaching structure, writing, production, and sonic depth. He guided me through the tools with a very hands-on approach, demoing/screensharing stuff live, and even helped me with specific elements by singing or improving instrumentation examples over my existing tracks. The specificity and concrete demos really helped me understand what he was talking about, in addition to his clear communication even about more abstract elements and concepts. He was so approachable and incredibly generous with his time, and I truly felt inspired throughout the process.

Thank you Working with Soundfly has been such a gift in unleashing my musicality. I've upgraded my mixing and arrangement chops, more so than I ever could have imaged. I'm feeling inspired, with five solid compositions under my belt. I can't wait to share them with the world. Thank you Soundfly, and thank you Sam/Past Palms for your diligent support!

Transformative Experience I worked with Tim Maryon through Soundfly. While it may sound trite and disingenuous, it was truly a game changer. Prior to my work with Tim, I felt as though I was aimlessly puttering around, stuck in musical purgatory. I didn't lack ambition, but I lacked practical guidance that would allow me to form an actionable game plan both in the short and long term. I now feel as though I create with purpose, that I'm no longer bogged down by what I once felt my limitations were, and that the demystification of the process has lifted my creative paralysis. Thank you for all that you've done Tim, it was an absolute pleasure working with you.

Private mentoring with Grammy producer I wanted to get some professional feedback on my productions from someone with way more experience than me. So I decided to work with Ian Prince, a Grammy winning producer. We had weekly calls and after 4 weeks he helped me tighten up my production and I learnt a bunch of techniques and approaches that I can use on all my productions moving forward. I will probably work with Ian again in the future. Highly recommended private mentoring if you're serious about making progress as an artist/producer.
