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.

Incredible 6 weeks mentorship with Lavender Looi I had a 6 week mentorship with Lavender Looi. She was absolutely incredible. She is very experienced and professional. She has a vision and a strong sense in music production. Listening to her thought process alone was very helpful. We worked on a new song and fixing an old song that i did previously. She was really nice and she answered all my questions during our calls or per email. Her focus was to help me and answer all my questions even if we exceeded the 45 mins call time. Every week we had a call. During the call, she gave me feedback on what i did the previous week in my songs and answered all my questions and the obstacles i faced and shows me how to do things or sent me absolutely helpful videos. At the end of each call she gave me a homework to work on some parts of the 2 songs. I learned a lot about music production from her. Before this program i was lost and was orienting myself to the youtube videos but she gave me a sense of direction and validated what i was doing right and gave me feedback how to improve other things. She gave me a lot of tips and helped understand the reason for many decisions i take during the music production process. I am absolutely grateful for this experience. Maybe as a hint, a weekly call can a bit stressful for someone who works on the side, but it is doable and i also used the 2 break weeks to do more progress in my songs.

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!

Great place to level up your skills! Marcela was truly an awesome mentor she really helped me dial my mixes in. Overall the experience with Soundfly was very positive as the people working there are approachable (virtually) and always willing to help.

Mentoring session with Raven. I just finished another mentoring session with Raven and she was awesome as usual. We did a six week program consisting lyric writing, editing, rewriting, melody creation and demo creation. We tackled four new songs and they are now in a great place for me to finish them up. She constantly challenges me to go outside of my comfort zone. I've learned a lot and am becoming a better songwriter because of her. I'll definitely be working with Raven again on some upcoming projects.
