Greetings, and welcome to my music production course. I'm thrilled to share my unique approach with you through this online learning experience. As a music producer and songwriter, my sound is grounded in the rich heritage of traditional Ethiopian instruments and melodies. However, I also seamlessly blend in global influences to create something fresh and futuristic.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of collaborating with many pioneering and upcoming Ethiopian artists. Working closely with them has given me deep insights into our musical roots, which I am eager to pass on to you. My portfolio includes a wide range of projects, from composing and arranging to mixing and mastering music projects. I have also composed scores for numerous movie and documentary projects, as well as corporate works and jingles for companies promoting Ethiopian culture through my sound. Additionally, I have also developed a midi playable instrument bank with Ethiopian native instruments Kirar and Masinko. I have released its demo version so that upcoming producers can benefit from it.
In this course, my aim is to provide you with a solid foundation in music production and audio editing. I will pave the way for you by offering clear and comprehensive guidance on how to begin your journey, unlocking the creativity that lies within you. We will cover essential techniques in recording, arrangement, audio editing, and mixing. However, my aspirations extend beyond just teaching you skills. I hope to ignite your artistic vision so that you can contribute to Ethiopian music in the long run.
My ultimate goal is for this online community to fuel further collaborations and support the launch of new artists. Together, let us build upon our rich musical heritage to shape an even brighter future for Ethiopian music worldwide. I look forward to guiding you through this exciting journey in music production. Let's get started!
