From the studio of Simon Servida — Toronto, Canada

Yooo!

So do you ever listen to Spotify and wonder how the top producers seem to have an endless supply of new musical ideas?

Have you ever spent hours clicking away inside your DAW, hoping to stumble on a new melody or chord progression?

And do you ever listen to one of your “finished” beats and think…

“Why do all my songs sound disjointed repetitive and dull?!”

If there’s anything I’ve learned over the last 10+ years producing music, plus the feedback I’ve gotten on nearly 79 Million views on YouTube (obligatory flex)

It’s that we all go through the same struggles when it comes to producing music and hitting that “Pro Level”.
I see it all the time in the comments section, guys say things like:

Every so often I can ‘bottle magic’ and create a good melody, but I don’t know how to do it consistently

I know a few chords and scales, but I end up using the same progressions and sounds which limits my creativity

When I hear a song on the radio, I don’t know how to create the same vibe or emotion in my own music

I get to a point in the track where I don’t know how to improve it anymore, but I know something is missing because it sounds amateur and bland

If any of these sound familiar, trust me, you’re not alone!

How I went from a complete failure to creating 🔥🔥 beats on command

Now this might surprise a lot of long time fans but…

The first time I took a music theory class in college, I FAILED MISERABLY.

Things were coming at me too fast, the professor used all these weird terms I’d never heard before, and the idea of spending months memorizing sheet music completely turned me off.

(Maybe I was a bit lazy as well)

And it’s this overly complicated approach to music that makes a lot of guys feel overwhelmed and intimidated by music theory.

Luckily my parents forced me to take the class over again, and I slowly became what most people would consider “Classically Trained.”

03
The truth about theory

And after a decade of studying and creating music, what I’ve come to realize is…

Music theory is a waste of time

Most music theory doesn’t apply to modern music

Tritone substitutions, mixolydian scales, and even reading sheet music just aren’t necessary if you want to create a catchy melody.

You don’t need to study Avant-garde theory or Hungarian composers if you want to create a hard hitting bassline.

And today’s DAWs are getting so advanced, that you don’t really need music theory at all to create something that sounds pretty good!

 

But here’s the problem!

[01]

What do you do when you don’t magically stumble on the right chord progression?

[02]

What do you do when no matter how many plugins you try, your beat still sounds stale and flat?

[03]

And what do you do when you hear that song on Spotify, and instead of getting inspired and excited to create something new…

You get frustrated and confused because you can’t re-create the same vibe in your own music?!

04
What you need to do instead

Stop clicking inside your DAW and learn how to produce music the right way

After seeing the same mistakes again and again, as well getting countless comments from guys asking for help…

I’ve decided to create a comprehensive online course that distills down everything I’ve learned over the last 10+ years producing music.

Cutting out all the unnecessary fluff and complicated music theory…
Taught inside the DAW
FL Studio

IN_DAW

And unlike any course before, teaching my entire beat making processdirectly inside the DAW!

Giving you everything you need to…

Blast through beat block and make better beats that you’re proud of at a much faster pace

It’s like installing a new hot key in your mind that dramatically speeds up your workflow.

CTRL

SHIFT

Pro

No more headaches or wasting time inside your DAW thinking “What am I doing?!”

Instead, you’ll have a new-found confidence and skillset to be able to:

[01]

Decode any song instantly

Listen to any song on Spotify and immediately know what key it’s in and how to “steal” the same vibe for your own music

[02]

Turn feelings into music

Turn feelings into chord progressions that make sense and effortlessly improvise melodies over the
top

[03]

Hang with the pros

Confidently jump into a studio session with a professional musician or rapper and be on their
level

[04]

Unlimited new ideas

And just keep things fun and interesting, with an unlimited potential to create new music that your friends and fans will love

Over 5,100 students have now gone through the Pro Level Beats course, and I can’t tell you how awesome it is to receive messages like these daily:

[A]

If you’re just starting out, this course will give you the essential foundation to confidently create new melodies and beats from scratch

The curriculum

Here’s how we’ll upgrade your beats together

Level

01

Learning the “language” of music

First we’ll go through a quick overview of the course, and then jump right in to “learning the language” of music…

Where I’ll spoon feed you the bare essentials of music theory directly inside your DAW, which is actually faster than learning everything on the piano!

We’ll also start training your ear to pick out notes and chords – Giving you the power to pull that melody out of your head and effortlessly throw it down in your DAW.

By the end of Level 1, you’ll already have the essential foundation you need to create better melodies and musical arrangements, and be ready to jump into…

LVL_01 / Language

Level

02

The basics of beat making

Then in Level 2, we’ll break down my entire beat making process.

Showing you where to start when creating a beat from scratch, and the best way to add melodies, chords, and drums.

Melodies Made Easy: The melody truly is the “make or break element” behind any great beat, I’ll show you how to make sure every melody you create is a winner

Basics of Rhythm: What’s a beat without the drums?! We’ll break down the basics, plus learn how the tempo and time signature impact the feel of your grooves

Ear Training 201: And as we continue honing your ear, I’ll show you my favorite tricks for identifying the emotional quality of chords and how to rapidly pick out any chord progression you hear on the radio

And to finish up Level 2, we’ll jump inside your DAW and make a brand new melody with your new-found musical knowledge

Don’t be surprised if you’re already creating melodies 2-3 times faster than you were before (And finally understanding WHY they sound so good!)

Then once you’ve got the basics under your belt, it’s time to move on to…
LVL_02 / Basics

Level

03

Counter melodies,
chord progressions and advanced melody creation

Level 3 is all about “fleshing out” your beat by layering in more flavorful chords and scales.

This is the key to making your music sound pro, where you have that beautiful interplay between the melody, counter melody, and chords.
Here’s some of what we’ll cover:

Scale Degrees: This one concept changed my entire perception of music! I’ll explain it in full detail and show you how to use it to dramatically speed up your workflow

Pop Progressions: Learn the most used chord progressions for modern music and how to create a similar vibe in your own music
Larger Than Life Melodies: I’ll explain the “rules of harmony” so you always know what notes and chords to add to make your beat sound more full and PRO

Complex Chords Decoded: Learn my simple process for memorizing “complicated” chords like the Diminished, Augmented, and passing chords that will seriously spice up the energy in your music

Many top producers never move beyond the basics, but by the end of Level 3, you’ll already have more tools in your musical toolbox than the majority of producers online!

But we won’t stop there, because we still need to add..

Level

04

Drums, 808s and basslines

Of course, no beat is complete without adding some fire bass and drums!

Which is why Level 4 goes deep into breaking down the interplay between the drums and bass and how to use them in your music.

Here’s some of what you’ll learn:
Kick, Clap, Hi Hat: Learn my favorite rule for how I connect the clap and hi hats to the melody and the best way to accentuate your basslines with the kick drum
Simple Sound Selection: I’ll show you how to add more variety to your drums with samples and virtual instruments, and the important rules you must NEVER break when selecting drum sounds
808s vs. Instruments: As much as I love the 808, it’s not always the best sound for filling out the bottom of your beat – I’ll show you the right way to add them to the mix, and when it’s better to leave them out

Keying Basslines: Learn my fast and easy method for making sure your bassline is in the right key, and why using the root note in chord progressions isn’t always the best move (This one is especially important for voice leading!)

And finally, as we finish Level 4, we’ll also finish up your first beat in the course!

By this point you’ll have a complete understanding of the entire beat making process: From melody creation, to harmony, to adding bass and drums.

Plus dozens of tips and tricks that I’ll teach you along the way to polish up your songs, making you ready for…

Pro Level beat making

Now we’re really cooking as we hit the Pro Level!
In Level 5 I’ll show you how to unlock an unlimited variety of melodies and chord progressions…
With some of my favorite “advanced” chords and scales – Guaranteeing you never get stuck with beat block again.
Here’s some of what you’ll learn:
Ethnic Energy: I’ll breakdown my favorite harmonic and ethnic scales that you can use to add some serious flavor to your beats
Easy Inversions: Inverting chords and using proper voice leading can be a challenge for a lot of producers – I’ll show you a simple trick to master it fast
Complex Chords:Chord extensions, suspended chords, borrowed chords, kablam! With so many options it can easily get overwhelming, I’ll show you which chords are best for modern music without getting lost in the numbers

Renegade Production: Now that you have a “Pro Level” understanding of music, it’s time to break the rules and create even more variety in your music! I’ll show you how

By the end of Level 5 you’ll have a complete workflow for creating Pro Level melodies with ease, which is exactly what we’ll do in the Level 5 exercise!

Followed by adding…

06

Pro Level drums and bass

Instead of using the same old trap drum sounds and boring 808s that you hear everyone using online…

Level 6 will show you how to create beats with far more energy, drive and variety (And maybe incorporating some patented bass slidezzz!)

Here’s some of what you’ll learn:
Simple Syncopation: Adding some swing and syncopation can give your beat a completely different feel – I’ll show you how to crank up the funk without making things too busy
Fast FX: Learn how to apply velocity and panning to your beats to flavor them up and the most popular drum effects producers use in modern music
Lots of Layering: I’ll show you how to add snares, shakers, snare rolls, crashes and swells to accentuate your beat and polish up your drum patterns

Bad-Ass Basslines: Learn note by note how I construct more complex basslines – And I’ll show you how to perfectly mesh the 808s with your drums AND melody

And then in the final exercise, we’ll finish up your Pro Level beat by adding drums and bass…

With me showing you a bunch of my favorite plugins and virtual instruments along the way to make your beat sound even more polished and pro!

Then it’s time to take things to the next level as we jump into…

07-09

Genre breakdowns: Hip Hop, Pop, and R&B

By this point in the program, you’ll already have a comprehensive understanding of not only music theory, but also a super efficient process for creating beats faster inside your DAW.

Next I’ll take you on a journey through some of the top songs in modern music and show you how to use what you’ve learned through out the course to re-create every note, rhythm and chord progression you hear inside your own DAW.
Here’s the genres we’ll be breaking down:
Hip Hop Music Decoded: With songs from Anderson .Paak, Joey Bada$$ and others – After Level 7, you’ll never need to waste time digging around for some obscure sample, I’ll show you how to re-create it from scratch inside your DAW
Pop Music Decoded: Here we’ll cover Charlie Puth, Zedd and DJ Snake and I’ll show you how to re-create the 4 on the floor drum pattern that’s super popular in dance music without having your beat sound like every other song you hear on the radio

R&B Music Decoded: Learn from Khalid and Alicia Keys as we break down what goes into an R&B beat – From syncopation to colorful chords, to arranging, and how to re-create the same vibe for yourself

By the time you’ve finished Level 9, you’ll have literally hundreds of new musical ideas, chord progressions, and melodies to add to your beats…
Plus a new sense of freedom, confidence and excitement to experiment and create great sounding music, no matter the genre, every time you jump inside your DAW!

Got questions?

Frequently asked questions

What if I have no musical experience at all?

Then you’ll be in great shape because I’ve built this course to give you everything you need from the ground up.

My main goal is to give you the confidence to overcome your fears about the “language of music” and trim away all the esoteric concepts that aren’t necessary for modern music.

Nope! Once you’ve enrolled in the course, you’ll have access to the entire Pro Level Beats video content forever!

Currently Pro Level Beats is open for enrollment, but once the timer hits 00:00:00 I’m closing down access for good and I have no plans to re-open enrollment at a later date.

What’s different about Pro Level Beats is I’ve trimmed out all the jargon and material that doesn’t apply to modern music, cutting years off your learning curve.
On top of that, I explain everything via your DAW and show you how to immediately apply what you learn which is way easier and faster than spending years learning how to play a musical instrument.
Yes! Like I said, this course is built around your DAW, NOT a musical instrument on purpose so you’ll be able to immediately apply what you learn instead of sitting in a boring classroom memorizing chords and scales.
While the examples I give in this course use FL Studio, you can just as easily apply what you learn to any DAW (Ableton, Garage Band, or Logic Pro, etc.)
This is a graduated course that walks you step by step through each level. If you tried to learn everything in this course from YouTube, you’d need to sift through years of content and only scratch the surface on what’s included in this course.

Excellent Beatmaking Course With Real Depth

ProLevelBeats by Servida Music was awesome and very informative. Some lessons were so detailed that I had to watch them multiple times for the exercises and techniques to truly sink in. The course improved my understanding of beatmaking, arrangement, and creativity. Great for producers who seriously want to level up their music skills.

How to make beats really.

The course was well presented and easy to follow.

You Get Out What You Put In

Everything you need to move from beginner to advanced producer is in this course. This is the course you get after you are familiar with your preferred tool for production. It’s not just about watching this content put putting it to practice with your own music. If you watch and practice what you learn, you will go slow but you will know more and be able to apply to your own creative process.

Ahmad W

Really helped me step my game up

At first i thought the course might be a bit much. When taken at a leisurely, along with practice, your technique will really take off

Shane T

More song analysis

I love the course I would love to see more genre specific content and song analysis

Aaron Z

I UNDERSTAND NOW

Love that it’s easy to comprehend as I do not have any music knowledge before. Easy to understand and loving the genre breakdown!

SHAHRUL R

Life changing!

This course really helped me learn those knowledge gaps that were missing and important techniques to make my music more complex, really life changing and quality knowledge!

James Joshua B

Awesome!

There is so much value in this course! I’d recommend anyone starting out to just get this haha. I dabbled for years and basically just played by ear and created bad habits! This course got me thinking about making music in a more structured way but I’m still able to use my ear to create originality. Honestly my beats improved even after the first few sections of this course!

Mitch N

Worth it in every way

I didn’t really know what to expect but just wow. I knew 0 music theory before this and now feel confident in my knowledge. Thank you Simon!

Samuel S

Simon is a great guy, this course will help you feel more confident as a producer!

The section on sound selection was a game changer for me and helped me feel like I was good at producing, before that it hadn’t “clicked”. The music theory was a little intimidating but if you keep your head down and stay patient you will start to realize how much it gets absorbed in your head and how good it is for your music. Thanks Simon so much! Music making is love at first sight!
