Residency: The Heart of Beat Kitchen

Residency is your home base at Beat Kitchen. Everything below is included at no additional cost: Office Hours, weekly gyms, beat reviews, and a warm community of producers.

Office Hours

A weekly check-in with our instructors. Bring your questions, get feedback on a track, or just listen in. Unstructured by design.

Music Theory Gym

Pick a song you love. We break it down—chords, harmony, why it works. Real music first, theory second.

Production Gym

A different production topic each week—mic techniques, mixing, sound design, mastering. Collaborative and practical.

Instrument Gym

Hands-on practice over live video. Keyboard, guitar, percussion—build the skills that bring your productions to life.

Ear Training Gym

Learn to hear what's happening in music. We practice with real songs, not abstract exercises. Better ears, better decisions.

Weekly Beat Challenge

Submit something every week—a sketch, a WIP, a finished track. Share it, get feedback, keep your creative momentum alive.
