About the School

Since 1996 we’ve been at the forefront of music production, audio engineering, DJing and performance – providing exceptional training and facilities for those who want to take their love of music further. 

And for those training in the mighty Manchester, many of our courses require no prior musical qualifications or knowledge, have no upper age limits, and you don’t need any equipment at home. We offer more studio access than any other UK equivalent – so if you want to make the School of Electronic Music your second home, you can do.

Our courses range from online courses and 1 day weekend taster courses, to our  longer professional courses, right up to our foundation entry BA (Hons) Music Production and Performance.

Our staff are all passionate industry professionals; coupled with our Official Training Centre credentials you can rest assured you’re getting cutting-edge training in an environment that educates and inspires.

“Of all the Music Technology Schools we visited on our Red Bull Music Academy UK lecture tour, I would have to say that we found School of Electronic Music, by far the best.”

Don’t just take our word for it!

I’m working through the Online Ableton Course so far, but I’ve already done tuition at the school. What’s interesting is that it does take a moment for the penny to drop, and I like the pauses you have left in. It works very well for beginners.

I so enjoyed the course, it was great to be around women who are so into their music. I thought Lucy was a great teacher, so passionate about what she does, and teaching us the correct way. I learned so much, and will be taking it further at some point.

Sam Fearn

When I look back at my experiences from the School of Electronic Music, there is no doubt that those were some of the most crucial stages in my development. The staff don’t forget you either, which makes it all the more special. Thank you, to all the staff at SEM. 

Waseem Faraz-Butt

I’ve achieved many life long goals as a result of studying at SEM. I’ve released my first independent track, signed to a well-known Artist Management company and have been lucky enough to be playing at Glastonbury. It’s a dream come true.

Paul Stevens

I really enjoyed today’s lesson. I loved witnessing how you made the track sound so much better, and the idea of me doing that in the future is really exciting. Really looking forward to the coming weeks of my lessons and support from the tech guys.

Mark Harris

I strongly feel that you can’t put a price on face to face tuition rather than books, websites, magazines and so on. The staff at SEM are some of the best in their fields and you will learn from every word they speak so take lots of notes!
