Quality Music Production Education:


- Innovative Teaching Methods
Designed to fit in with your busy life, our courses are engineered for optimized learning and make use of an educational practice called the ‘spacing effect’. This involves exposure to the weekly contents of the fun but dense course, before using the time between sessions to practice and allow the information to settle. 

- Flexible Course Scheduling
We know that committing to a six-week course isn’t always easy, so if you can’t make a session we’ll do our best to arrange for you to catch up on a future cycle.

We have shaken up music production education in the UK by delivering quality, but affordable courses in state-of-the art facilities and guiding people to achieving master quality results, no matter what style of music they make.

Student Testimonials:

I would never have discovered all this by myself. A well structured course with quite simply brilliant instructors.”
- Shaun, Logic Course

“I attended a music production course at one of the other London DJ schools before doing a course at Garnish. There really is no comparison; the experience at Garnish was much better, and I learnt so much more.”
- Tristen, EMP and Mixing Courses

“Being a professional self-taught producer, it was valuable to revise some things I already knew, but must importantly, I learnt so many things I did not know about before. I would recommend Garnish to experienced professional producers who make electronic music. You will still learn loads!”
