Two years ago, as a former Abbey Road Institute student, I recorded three demos at Abbey Road Studios. Back then, I was just a beat maker and amateur instrumentalist chasing the footsteps of the greats.
I poured everything into those demos, broke conventions, and created something I’m really proud of—yet perfectionism kept it hidden.
trying to mix my own music, humbled me. Nothing worked, and I couldn’t understand why my education wasn’t enough.
Then it clicked: the missing piece wasn’t knowledge, it was ear training.
I trained intensely in 2024, returned again in 2025, and this time something changed. My ears had evolved. Balance, compression, frequencies—finally, it felt natural.
The real breakthrough wasn’t technical.
It was learning to trust the process—and myself.
That growth shaped more than my mixes.
And it wouldn’t have happened without SoundGym.
Big thanks to sound gym and the community!
