In this FaderPro Track from Scratch course, house music mainstay CASSIMM effortlessly crafts a rhythmic and soulful house track, talking through his entire production process along the way. Within this course, the esteemed house music aficionado shares his hottest mixing techniques, arrangement strategies, sampling tricks and much more.

This now London-based, Italian-born producer has amassed an impressive string of releases over the course of his career, and shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon. He’s had the opportunity to release his own style of house music on some of the genre’s most notable names, including Defected, Toolroom Records, Spinnin’ and Armada. It’s no surprise, then, that CASSIMM’s productions attract close to 200,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone, and his presence in the DJ booth is in consistently high demand on an international level.

CASSIMM’s Track from Scratch course spans nearly two hours, and provides a never-before-seen insight into the makings of one of his club-focussed peak time house tracks. In it, you’ll learn how to chop vocals, write basslines, arrange your tracks and create some of the most high-energy and crowd-pleasing build ups out there today. As a highly qualified and experienced producer, CASSIMM also discusses some of his general production approaches, and reflects upon the artistic and creative mentality he’s employed to get to where he is today.

In this course, CASSIMM builds his track from scratch within Ableton Live, a popular DAW of choice for producers of all backgrounds and musical styles. It’s fair to say that the bulk of the course is delivered using Ableton Live’s own built-in devices, something he says keeps his projects simple and his CPU usage low. For certain tasks, though, CASSIMM also uses some third-party software throughout his production process. Synthesis, compression and mixing are all accomplished using third-party plugins, but the techniques and principles demonstrated within this course can be achieved using any DAW and don’t necessarily require the exact plugins used by CASSIMM.

This two-hour masterclass in house music production is split into 11 bitesize chapters, so you can work through it step-by-step, or take on the entire course in one go. However you learn, and whatever your production background, CASSIMM’s comprehensive Track from Scratch course is sure to bring your studio skills and creative confidence up a notch.
