## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great framework for dance music creativity
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 27 March 2021*

Good level of useful detail supporting the creation and production of dance music. Would suit someone at an early stage of development, but also useful for someone like me to use as a refresher or for extra clarity on things. Written in a very clear way with supporting examples that can be used very practically. The book can be used as a complete guide from cover to cover, studied as individual chapters, or for picking out small elements for quick implementation. Excellent way of translating technical actions and details into musical outcomes. Consistent standard throughout.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The book that will change your life if you are a good learner
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 August 2018*

This book is so deep with information that it leaves no question unturned. You can read it page by page and go on a musical journey as it explains everything concisely or you can pick it up and jump into the bass section and follow a quick.In my eyes this book should be taught as a course but I suppose it’s better this way because it means you can get all the knowledge of a dance producer at your fingertips which to me is like one of the greatest books that I have ever read! If you follow the whole book step by step you will become a master in my eyes with the knowledge that used to be hidden from us mortals.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spot on
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 20 November 2017*

Wow. Just wow. I’ve been in the music biz 28 years and have actually produced 65 records globally. No joke...so some may think I know everything. I don’t. This author does and he’s helped me a lot! The landscape nature of this book is attractive in itself and the content is outstanding. Covers everything you need to know about dance music production and much more. From creating the best kick drums, snares, hats etc and even compression. There’s a good bit which explains how to step programme beats and even a graphical look at how some well known dance hits were arranged.
