About your mentor
On The Decks Academy
To make music more accessible to everyone.
The OTD Studios & Academy is making music education exciting with a modern twist! Who wants to become the next best DJ or Music Producer?! The OTD Studios and Academy teach people of all ages how to DJ and produce electronic dance music. Both skills are important, and they bring people’s love for music to life in a different way! Our students get hands-on learning on performance-grade equipment in the music industry, taught by accredited expert tutors! We've taken skill levels from nothing to something, with opportunities to play on live stages, including in and around Milton Keynes! Through our workshops and lessons, we teach hand-eye coordination, timing, and listening by ear techniques, all used in day-to-day life, as well as in these skills.
