Not all practice improves ability.

Have you ever wondered why the most successful professional athletes always rely on coaches? The answer is simple: there’s always room for improvement. Repeating the same actions won’t help you progress if your practice methods are flawed.

On platforms like YouTube, content is often tailored to the lowest common denominator, offering quick tips that are more about accumulating likes than genuinely enhancing your skills.

The only path to improvement lies in deliberate practice, which is designed and guided by experts. This approach helps you hone specific abilities, identify weaknesses, and stretch beyond your comfort zone. Without proper feedback and guidance, achieving your goals becomes incredibly challenging. Don’t settle for mediocrity; seek mentorship that will elevate your performance to new heights.

What Our Clients Say

Studio Services

I think I’ve just finished the most important dance album of the last twenty years. I’d only trust Rick with it, he’s not some wally straight out of a music degree course. There is a pedigree involved. Altar studios are the ying to my yang.

FIrst Superstar DJ

Student Courses

“What” you study is far more important than “how” or “how much” you study, especially if you’ve been studying the wrong material. Having gone through Altar Academy, I learned I’d been “climbing the wrong mountain” in my YouTube-based, self-educated pursuits.

Whether you’re a musician, an engineer, or a producer at almost any skill level. Subtleties in music matter a great deal, and knowing how to listen to them can make all the difference in your musical success.

True success is reflected in accolades, not just qualifications. The best producers showcase platinum records on their walls, not essays or qualifications.

Since 1991, we have been at the forefront of electronic dance music (EDM), ghost-producing tracks for international artists that have garnered millions of streams and achieved platinum status.

As an Apple-certified studio specialising in mastering electronic dance music, we continuously produce, mix, and master tracks for some of the industry’s most prominent labels.

In addition, we authored the leading textbook on producing electronic dance music, translated into five languages, which was celebrated with awards and recognised as required reading in universities and colleges worldwide.

We’ve shared our expertise on stages globally, giving talks at prestigious events such as the AES New York and Dublin conventions and serving as keynote speakers at NAMM 2020.

We are ready to equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to achieve the same level of success that we have attained. Join us, and let’s create your future together.
