ABOUT THE ARTIST

Neil van Kleeff has been all over the place music wise. Having played in bands as a guitarist, playing big shows as a DJ and releasing self produced music in multiple genres. Under his alias “Vypes” he creates heavy hitting dance music and combines it with his own guitar playing. As a producer, he values telling a story trough production. Really thinking about which vibe you want to have in your tune is something he perfected during his study at the Rockacademie in Tilburg. As a teacher at MPA, Neil is able to help you with sounddesign, arranging and composing, music theory and mixing.

    Track feedback sessıon

    Track feedback is an essential part of our
    Masterclass events we aim to provide at every edition. This gimmick is a 30-40 minute session after the masterclass, where students play their tracks to the masterclass artist and get feedback. This allows for intrigued and curious attendees to get personal advice on their craft from a professional.
