What's Included

Everything you need to level up.

  • One structured original track
  • A more organised production workflow
  • One private final track review
  • Written next-stage priorities
  • CUE Malta–Netherlands Artist Pathway participation

Build the skills and repeatable workflow needed to move musical ideas towards complete tracks. This 12-week beginner pathway is designed for students who are new to production or are still developing their technical foundations.

You’ll work from your own laptop and compatible DAW, in a small cohort of 3–4 students at INSYNK Spaces in Malta, receiving structured guidance, practical exercises and direct feedback from Phynyks.

Beginner may suit you if: you’re still learning your DAW, struggle to structure projects, or haven’t yet completed a full original track. If you already understand the fundamentals, the Intermediate Music Production pathway may push you further.

The final track matters, but the wider goal is understanding the decisions behind the process so you can apply them to future projects independently. Every programme includes participation in the CUE Malta–Netherlands Artist Pathway.

THE DEVELOPMENT

UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS. BUILD MORE INDEPENDENTLY.

The final track matters, but the wider goal is understanding the decisions behind the production process.

Throughout the programme, you will develop stronger habits around how you start, organise, develop and evaluate your own music.

The aim is to give you a foundation you can continue applying to future projects independently.
