Each week, you鈥檒l be creatively inspired and challenged as you compose and produce to brief, exploring an impressive range of genres and styles. Across your time with us, you鈥檒l have regular opportunities to collaborate with both fellow music production students and vocalists, guitarists, bassists, drummers and songwriters also studying at ICMP. You鈥檒l instantly join ICMP鈥檚 dynamic learning community, where you can build your personal and professional network, working in real-world settings and linking with the world-renowned London music industry. As an ICMP student, you can book our specialist facilities free of charge for personal use outside of class hours, seven days a week, meaning you can progress your creativity and talent as a music producer with the very best kit. Resources you have access to include writing rooms and studios, ribbon, valve and modelling microphones,鈥痠nstruments, synthesisers, drum machines, controllers, loop stations, vocal processors and effects pedals,鈥� and more. At the end of your time with us, you鈥檒l have gained a solid understanding of the practical elements of music production and recording, as well as a firm idea of the way the music industry operates, and a sense of music鈥檚 place throughout history and in the wider world. You鈥檒l also possess good networking skills, a great list of contacts and the necessary drive to get started in the music industry.
