About Rory
Introduction:
I help producers go from having ideas to finishing complete professional tracks in Ableton Live. Not only do I show you the practical side, I also focus on inspiration and what excites you, so you can create something you truly love.
If you’ve started before but felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to actually complete a song, I’ll guide you through a clear, structured process so you can build confidence and finish your music. I help electronic music producers improve arrangement, workflow, melodies, layering, and track structure inside Ableton Live.
My sessions are designed specifically for EDM producers who struggle with:
unfinished tracks
weak arrangements
repetitive sections
lack of direction
messy project files
creative block
I have over 8 years of production experience and a Bachelor’s degree in Music Production & DJ Practice.
Sessions are practical and project-focused.
You will work directly on your own tracks during lessons.
Topics include:
arrangement
transitions
melodies
layering
drops
workflow optimization
sound selection
finishing tracks
live performance workflows
launchpad integration
Lessons are online via Zoom.
What makes my lessons different:
Most lessons focus on tools and theory. I focus on helping you actually create and complete music straight from your mind and heart.
We’ll work step-by-step so you always know what you’re doing and why, no confusion, no wasted time.
What you’ll learn:
How to use Ableton Live without feeling overwhelmed.
How to build beats, melodies, and ideas from scratch.
How to arrange your music into a full track.
The basics of mixing so your track sounds clean and complete.
How to develop your own creative style.
How to search for inspiration, be excited and proud to create.
My teaching approach
I keep lessons relaxed, supportive, and focused on real progress.
I adapt to your level and goals, whether you’re completely new or already started but stuck.
Structured Programme (recommended)
I offer a simple lesson programme designed to help you:
Get inspired
Start a track from scratch
Develop it step-by-step
Finish a complete piece of music you truly love
This gives you a clear path and helps you stay motivated.

My approach is relaxed, practical, and focused on helping you actually enjoy making GOOD music in Ableton. I know how overwhelming it can feel getting stuck on a track, so I aim to make things simple and clear, to finish your track with a professional sound, rather than overcomplicated.
I have 10 years of experience producing electronic music and using Ableton Live, including creating and releasing my own tracks. I am a Graduate with a Bachelor's Degree from Point Blank Music School in London. I am a qualified Level 5 teacher. My skills are honed and I know what it takes to create great professional music that creates deep feelings and energy. I also have a huge passion for helping people.
I usually teach by working directly inside Ableton with you. We can gain inspiration, build ideas together, fix parts of your track, or go through specific areas you’re struggling with like melodies, chords, structure, or sound selection.
Lessons are typically 2 hours, but I can stretch this depending on what you need.
My lessons are best suited for beginners to intermediate creators who need guidance, support, and a clearer direction with their music.
