"I wanted to take a moment to thank you and Pyramind for the great experience I had during the ANP. My teacher was engaging and thorough - his ability to read the class and see what they needed was really impressive. I really enjoyed my Pyramind experience. Thank YOU"
Daniel Johnson// ANP student
"I have done a lot of music courses on different subjects over the years and I have to say this program is one of the best I’ve seen. The pacing of the class, getting critical feedback, and the supportive environment were tremendous! Just picking the teacher's brain was worth the price of admission. You have an awesome thing going at Pyramind!"
Jesse Marseille// ANP student
"This class was amazing. I started out knowing absolutely nothing and was hoping to just "get off the ground". The experience wildly surpassed my expectations and I'm now finishing tracks regularly!"
Nicholas G// ANP student
"Shawn and the ANP night class is great for anyone with basic to expert level musical backgrounds. The class pace perfectly walks the fine line between keeping you engaged but not too overwhelmed. In five weeks, I've learned more than I had in 5 months trying to learn Ableton on my own. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in music production!"
Tasia Potasinski// Aspiring Producer
