I want to tell you what MYT is not.

It's not a course platform. It's not a software tutorial service. It's not a producer bootcamp or a shortcut to streams or a system for building followers. It's not trying to help you become an influencer who also makes music.

I want to be clear about this because there are plenty of platforms that are those things, and they serve a different person than the one I built MYT for.

Who MYT Is For

MYT is for the person who makes music because they have no real choice. Because something in them insists on it. Because the process of taking sound and shaping it into something that carries emotional meaning is, for them, one of the most important things they can do with their time.

That person takes their art seriously. They're not looking for a way to game an algorithm or reverse-engineer a trend. They want to get better. They want to make music that lasts — that means something, that stands for something, that could be played in a room at two in the morning and make everyone present feel that they are somewhere real.

They may be at the beginning of their journey — sitting in front of Ableton for the first time, overwhelmed by the gap between what they can hear in their imagination and what they can currently produce. Or they may be a serious intermediate producer who knows the tools but is trying to close the gap between competent and genuinely exceptional. Or they may be further along — making music that's good, even very good — but without the structure, the feedback, and the community that will push them to the level where the labels and the bookings and the full-time career become real.

All three of those people are welcome here. What they have in common is that they're serious.

What I Mean by True Artist

This phrase — True Artist — gets used a lot. I want to be specific about what I mean by it.

A True Artist is not defined by their following, their streaming numbers, their booking fee, or their label affiliations. A True Artist is defined by the authenticity of their relationship with their work.

They make music because they have something to say — not because they've identified a gap in the market. They develop their sound over time through honest inquiry and continuous refinement — not by chasing whatever's working in their reference playlist this month. They take their technical craft seriously because sloppy technique limits what you can express — not because they're trying to impress other producers with their mix.

And — crucially — they're honest with themselves about the gap between where they are and where they want to be. They don't perform confidence they don't have. They don't post music they know isn't ready and call it "putting themselves out there." They work. They get feedback. They go back and work some more.

The artists I admire most — Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Guy J, Patrice Baumel — share this quality. Their longevity isn't accidental. It's the result of decades of treating their art with the seriousness it deserves.

The MYT Approach

When I built MYT, I made a series of deliberate choices that run counter to what most education platforms do.

I made it a community, not a library. A video library of courses is useful. But the thing that actually changes producers — that moves them from stuck to progressing — is accountability, feedback, and being part of a group of people who take the same things seriously. The MYT Discord is not a chat room. It's a professional environment where serious producers share work, ask questions, and push each other.

I built in accountability structures. The bi-weekly track feedback sessions are the spine of the programme. You make music. You submit it. I listen to it. I tell you, with genuine honesty, what's working and what isn't. This is not pleasant when the answer is "this isn't there yet" — but it is how you actually improve. The producers who have made the biggest leaps through MYT are the ones who showed up to these sessions with something new every fortnight, took the feedback seriously, and went back to work.

I made it affordable relative to what it delivers. The AAA Programme is £240 for six months. That covers 20+ courses, weekly live classes, bi-weekly track feedback, and full Discord community access. I know what it costs to study music formally. I know what a single session with a mix engineer costs. £240 for six months of this level of access is a deliberate choice — because I want the barrier to be skill and seriousness, not money.

I run a label alongside the platform. Emergent Properties is a real record label, currently preparing Season 2. When students produce music at the right level, that pathway exists. It's not a vanity promise — it's a functional part of the ecosystem.

The proof that the approach works is Massano — Sam Rose — who came through MYT and went on to sign with Afterlife and Drumcode. He is the most visible example, but he's not the only one. Every week, producers in the MYT community are finishing tracks they've been unable to finish before, getting their mixes to a professional standard for the first time, signing releases, getting booked, making real progress.

What I'm Asking of You

If you join MYT, I'm asking you to take it seriously.

Show up to the live sessions. Submit your tracks for feedback. Be honest in the Discord about where you're struggling. Make music every week even when you don't feel like it. Listen to the feedback you receive even when it stings. Come back the following fortnight with something new.

I'm asking you to treat your art like it matters — because it does. Not because it will necessarily make you rich or famous, but because the act of making something genuine, something that carries your actual voice, is one of the most valuable things a human being can do.

The music world doesn't need more content. It needs more artists. More people willing to do the slow, serious, patient work of developing a real point of view and the technical ability to express it.

That's what MYT is for.

That's what it's always been for.

If that's you — come and make your transition.
