HEY PRODUCERS!

You need to learn some music theory

Saturday workshop • Small group • Includes 1 Month Residency


Why you’re stuck:

Most music theory courses teach you to memorize voicings. You end up with hundreds of chord shapes but no idea when to use them.

What we do differently:

We teach you how harmony functions. You’ll learn the 10-chord system that eliminates guesswork and gives you conscious control over emotional movement in your music.


The Harmony Wheel

Music Theory - Harmony Wheel

The Beat Kitchen Harmony Wheel - Connect your MIDI keyboard and see harmonic relationships in real-time. Modal interchange, borrowed chords, and functional harmony visualized as you play.


In This Full Saturday Intensive:

The 10-Chord Toolkit - A streamlined framework that focuses on the chords that matter and how they relate ✓ The Harmony Wheel - Interactive tool that visualizes chord function as you play

Functional Thinking - Understand why progressions work, not just which ones work

Hands-On Application - Work through progressions and apply concepts to your own music

Plus: 1 Month of Beat Kitchen Residency ($85 value)

  • Weekly office hours with instructors
  • Production gyms and theory gyms
  • Beat reviews and feedback
  • Discord community access

Residency starts 1 week before the workshop or on purchase date (whichever comes first)


This workshop is for producers and musicians who:

  • Are already making music
  • Want deeper harmonic understanding
  • Are ready to invest in craft over quick hacks

Not for: Absolute beginners or those looking for free tutorial-style content

Nathan is one of the great few teachers that care. As a graduate of a prestigious music school, I was whisked through a massive amount of knowledge, with many teachers.

Recently took a couple of classes - Effects, Synthesis and Mixing primer and the Beat Building Jam. Both classes were really good. Ended up learning a lot of basics of how sound design and shaping works in the first one and a bunch of

I studied with a couple of these teachers before they started this school. They were really inspiring and knew exactly how to help me push my music production skills to the next level. It’s great that they are starting this music community!
