Course Description
Become an Efficient and Creative Music Composer
Welcome, and congratulations for choosing to level up your productivity, creativity, and speed up your workflow when you compose music. You will learn all my best methods for unleashing your true creative powers. After this course you will have the power and knowledge to speed up your music making process.
Composing music is a noble craft. You create something that can not be seen or felt by your hands. And yet the instruments, sounds and notes of your music story, carry so much emotional power. But it is not an easy task to create a full music composition. It’s always tricky to start...but also to get from your first idea to a complete track. That is why you need a lot of tricks, and special methods in your composer toolkit.
Your mission as a composer is to turn your ideas into an engaging story. A story told with instruments and sounds. Because that's what music is. A dynamic and compelling story of emotions. And you are the both the writer, and the director of this story.

Mike shares short cuts to composing music, so that for someone with my skill level has hopes to compose well beyond my ability to play. The table of contents will show you that he has a variety of methods you can use. He also suggested some apps for on the go. He mentioned he would leave a file which I have yet to look for and upload to my DAW. I am happy that I took this course. It will help me in my efforts to compose and write songs, or improve the ones I have written.

This course is a terrific introduction to everything that is needed to be an excellent composer. If you already have experience composing, it will serve as a comprehensive review of the elements you work with. The class is also exciting, inspiring and encouraging, like Mike’s other classes.

I tried a few best seller courses on Udemy concerning music composition, and frankly wasn't that impressed, then I found Mikael. There is something in the way that Mikael presents his ideas that click with me, and he always brings practical applications to his theories. If you haven't tried his courses yet, I highly recommend you give them a try. I doubt you'll be disappointed. Peace.

I really enjoyed this course that contains so many good tips and short cuts! I have been taken some of your other courses and I really find that you give great content and clear explanations. Your enthusiasm for composing music is obvious and contagious! Thanks you so much Mike for putting up these courses. They are very helpful!
By Raymond Søvold on 12/20/2018
Good Course for the beginner composers, although he did not dwell very much into on how to composing, but still amazing course for not being overwhelmed on the process of composing your own music. My favoritt video is the: The block method, sketch method, MC method and the explanation on how mixing in theory and the overall music production. This is a highly recommend course.
By Cristian Cooke on 10/24/2018
The course brings interesting tips for composition mainly for beginner composers.
By Marco Boeri on 9/16/2018
Il corso fornisce approcci, strumenti e metodi di lavoro che possono concretamente orientare nel comporre musica partendo dal "foglio bianco", seguendo le varie fasi creative e suggerendo strategie per non perdere troppo tempo facilitando cosi concentrazione e creatività. Una conoscenza della musica è secondo me prerequisito molto utile.
By Brent Rains on 7/16/2018
It was very informative course. I have been in music a long time, and needed to discover some composition ideas that could shake loose some writers block that hits from time to time. This course provides great tools for keeping inspired with musical ideas. Mikael Baggstrom really believes in these methods and describes them with a clarity that is refreshing.
