neurotica
welcome to indie north collective vip section.
a corner of the internet built around one simple idea: getting better at making electronic music is easier when you can just ask someone instead of relying on the information in random youtube videos.
the core philosophy behind indie north collective is to connect through a shared love of creative work in music, to lift each other up within this highly competitive scene, and create the ideal community that values creativity in electronic music production over doing things "the right way".
I have created this vip section to take that concept a step further.
as a vip member, you'll gain access to a private community of producers, an ongoing library of production resources, and personalized one-on-one coaching with me (neurotic.).
the goal is not to just teach you more production techniques. it's to help you become more confident in your creative decisions, develop the music you actually want to make, and get better at finishing it.
what you get:
- 2 × private coaching sessions a month (75 min)
- private discord community for you and other vip subscribers
- production resource and asset vault
- access to samples, ableton racks, patches, wavetables and tutorials as I release them
- access to discussion, feedback and sharing within the vip section of the group.
coaching:
the core of this vip membership is the One-on-One coaching (bi-weekly) with me (neurotic.).
rather than giving you a list of rules you're supposed to follow, the goal is to help you develop the confidence and understanding to make your own creative decisions.
coaching sessions are completely customized to you, your challenges, your workflow, and the things you actually want to improve on. rather than another list of production rules to follow to make a "banger", the goal is to help you develop the confidence and understanding to make your own creative decisions.
All things taught in these sessions connect into one philosophy; that you create exactly what you want to create, when you want to create it without second guessing your creative instincts.
### things we can work on:
creative direction
- figuring out what kind of music you actually want to make and why
- developing your own sound rather than chasing someone else's
- learning to trust your taste and make creative and technical decisions with intention
workflow
- building a workflow around the way you actually create
- identifying what's slowing you down or causing hesitation
- creating systems and thought processes that help you finish music rather than tweaking it endlessly
creative awareness
- becoming more aware of the thoughts and instincts that come up while you're producing
- learning to recognize the difference between a useful creative instinct and a vague feeling that something is "wrong"
- learning to turn those reactions into useful creative direction rather than second guessing them.
sound design & production
- intentional sound design and audio processing
- understanding why you're making a particular production decision rather than just doing them
- improving drums, bass, arrangement, dynamics, loudness and whatever else your current project is needing
creative mindset
- protecting your creative energy
- understanding the difference between productive studio time and time spent forcing a track
- organizing your work around focus, rest and sustainable creative sessions
- reducing burnout and creative paralysis
your projects
- feedback on whatever you're currently working on
- troubleshooting specific production challenges
- answering questions as they come up
- figuring out what your track actually needs to move forward
getting started
once you sign up, I'll send you a form with some questions to answer so I can understand where you're at, what you're making, what you're struggling with and what you'd like to improve.
from there, we'll book your first session and start working from wherever you're at.
