Looking to further your career in Dance Music as a producer or remixer? We recently came across Point Blank Music School and checked out the numerous programs they offer. I was impressed with the large assortment of classes working with some of the top platforms for Apple OSX: Producing with Ableton Live, DJing with Ableton, Logic Pro, Reason, and Cubase. They also offer classes in all the major genres of Dance Music like: Trance, House, Minimal, Electro House, Progressive, and Hip Hop as well as Songwriting, Mixing, and DJing classes. Their new Mixing Dance Music course looks especially interesting as the mix is one thing that really makes a track shine. In this course you get to upload tracks you created for the teacher to critique and give you pointers on how to get the most our of your sound. DJ Mag has awarded them the “Best Music Production & DJ School” for the past six consecutive years which is pretty impressive.
Check out their course catalog to see what’s right for you.

I took the minimal techno production course (for Ableton) at PB online. Nothing but good things to say about this outfit; was worth every penny (though I think their rates have increased recently).
