About this course

The Complete House Music Production Course

House music is a genre built on feel — the kick that hits right, the bass that locks in, the chord that makes the room move. This course takes you through every element of a professional house track, from the very first drum hit to a finished master ready for a club system or a label release.

With over 30 in-depth video lessons, you'll cover drum programming with TR-909 and TR-808 machines, bass design and groove, synthesis and sound design for house, vocal processing and arrangement, mixing for clarity and impact, and mastering for the dance floor. Nothing is skipped — you get the full picture.

The course follows a full track walkthrough — you start with nothing and finish with a complete, polished house track. Every decision is explained in context: why this sound, why this arrangement, why this mix move. You learn by doing, not by watching someone fill in a template.

Teaching Philosophy

How I teach

The only way to learn production is to produce. This course is built around building — you start with a blank project and finish with a complete house track. Every technique is taught in context, applied to a real piece of music, so you understand not just what to do but why it works.

Claudio Passavanti has spent decades working inside electronic music — producing, engineering, and collaborating with artists like Omar, Osunlade, AtJazz, and DJ Spinna. That experience informs everything taught here: real techniques from real sessions, not textbook exercises or template-filling shortcuts.

The goal isn't to make you sound like someone else. It's to give you such a deep understanding of the genre that you can make your own thing — with confidence, with intention, and in your own voice. Genre knowledge is creative freedom, and that's what this course is really about.
