From parties in Detroit, to 90s underground raves, all the way to Berlin’s buzzing club scene today, Techno has been long-established as one of the world’s biggest and most recognisable genres of electronic music. In this course from Producertech Senior Tutor and Berlin resident Rob Jones, comes a detailed insight into the production techniques behind this legendary style.

Leaving no stone unturned, this lengthy course will take you through the basic elements of the track – kick, bass, low/high percussion and a detailed look at creating melodic parts, before covering effects processing and arrangement – with a focus on utilising the Maschine hardware throughout, demonstrating not only the colossal sound design power available, but also workflow techniques and utilising Maschine as a plug-in in other DAWs.

Available immediately after purchase, 24/7/365 anywhere with an internet connection, the course comes complete with 100MB of Techno Samples, courtesy of Loopmasters, and the projects from the course. Help and information is always available on the Producertech forum, where you can post your work for review and discuss techniques and ideas with fellow students and tutors.
