ABOUT US
PASSION TO PRODUCTION
MPA is a creative hub; fostering a team of ambitious producers, professional musicians, and innovative entrepreneurs. We believe that with the right surroundings, comes the possibility for everyone to produce music. We achieve this through both technical and musical theory application and development, in various professional studios located at our Music Production Academy.
WHERE IT ALL STARTED
The idea behind our music school originated a few years ago. A group of lecturers, students and managers came to the conclusion that the form of audio education they had in mind was not yet offered in The Netherlands. This team of musical experts took the initiative to create an accessible audio training environment. Students receive personalized attention; focusing on their individual development in different aspects of producing.
MORE THAN AN ACADEMY
MPA is more than just an Academy with full access to professional studio spaces, collaborative jam sessions, network events and personalized support. We are a hub that caters to those who are passionate about music. We want to help as many producers as possible to get the best out of their music, partly by making collaborations more accessible, both for everyone’s own musical satisfaction, as well as to gain opportunities in the music industry.
OUR VISION
MPA strives to grow into an even larger ambitious community, with electronic music as a driving force, in which passion can be translated into music production.
ACTIVITIES
EDUCATION
It’s in the name! Music Production Academy has been offering top-class education since 2014, and is only growing. You will find home at MPA whether you are a beginner or an advanced producer who is interested in electronic genres. With the recent re-vamp of our one-year flagship program, the Full Course, MPA is stronger than ever in bringing your musical passion into tangible production projects. If you’re not ready for long commitments, we also offer all Full Course contents in personal class formats at our Mentorship program.
KIDS & YOUNGSTERS
All is welcome at MPA, and this includes beginners in life as well! Young and aspiring musicals can join our DJ Lessons as they wish – whether to practice right away or just to see if it’s something of their interest. We also regularly hold child and youngster-friendly Writing Camps, where musical minds come together to learn from each other and create amazing tracks by the end of mere hours. Make sure to keep up with our social media and events page to not miss these exciting opportunities!
COMMUNITY & EVENTS
From passion to production, but also from student to alumni and from beginning act to stage performer. At MPA we have had the privilege of seeing countless artists grow into their potential.. Creatives who get to know each other within our walls continue to come back to us, also years after graduation. Our community is extremely important to us. That is why we regularly organize various events in which, in addition to creativity, networking and maintaining contacts are key.
GROUP ACTIVITIES
We offer group activities for companies and informal occasions. Record your own song in a day under the supervision of a professional audio engineer or host a unique bachelorette party learning how to DJ: it’s all possible at MPA. Our facilities are also frequently rented out to record labels for privately hosted activities such as listening sessions, network events and invite only parties. Check out our group activities page to see how we can make your event happen.
