Transcription de la leçon
Fast Songwriting Course Introduction
Hi, this is Isaac Kotek and I'm going to be teaching this course on fast songwriting. We will discuss:
- How to stay creative
- How to produce quickly in live settings
- Turning the ideas in your head into reality
About Me
Let me start by talking about myself, which I love to do!
I'm Isaac Kotek, an Ableton certified trainer with over seven years of experience training musicians and schools across the United States and internationally.
My Musical Journey
- I travel extensively, performing under my project name Subaqueous.
- I have worked on numerous projects, including:
- Ambient music
- World fusion electronic music
- A vocal group called Silk Drop
- I also mix and produce for other artists.
This is me performing at a festival in Washington and at the Awaken Festival, where I taught Ableton Live techniques related to my creative process. It was during these experiences that I noticed people were interested in how I create music quickly across my various projects. This recognition inspired me to create this course.
Learning Ableton Live
I began using Ableton Live about seven to eight years ago, starting with Live 5. There was no manual available in English, so I was learning in the dark. As I became more proficient, I started teaching others what I had learned, which greatly enhanced my skills as a teacher.
Now, I work with:
- High schools
- Colleges
- Special courses such as this one at Control Voltage
Course Focus
The focus of this course is on:
- Creativity: Quickly create, share, and polish your music
- Efficiency: Streamline the music creation process
Course Scope
In this class, we will cover:
- Steps for music creation
- Creating live templates
- Organizing samples for quick deployment (a crucial yet often overlooked topic)
- Quickly creating sketches
- Building out ideas
- Developing compositions
- Arrangement techniques
- Advanced songwriting tips and tricks
What This Course Is Not
- This course does not cover the basics of Ableton Live.
- If you are not familiar with how to control Ableton Live, warping, or managing clips, this might not be the right course for you.
Recommendation: Please refer to my other courses on the basics of Ableton Live to build an understanding before tackling this course.
Course Overview
We will dive into different modules and classes throughout this course. I invite you to watch the entire course. Even if you feel knowledgeable, you may encounter surprising insights or miss important pieces if you skip sections.
At the end of this course, you will be able to speed through your tracks, create your own music, and develop compositions effectively.

Isaac Cotec est, sans doute, l'un des meilleurs formateurs Ableton au monde ! Tout en travaillant sur sa propre musique, il a commencé à enseigner les techniques d'enregistrement, le design sonore et Ableton Live à des élèves particuliers et, depuis qu'il a obtenu sa certification d'Ableton Certified Trainer officiel, il a aidé des milliers de producteurs à passer un cap et à réussir comme musiciens.
Isaac a commencé à produire de la musique électronique en 2005 avec Psyche Sonics, un groupe expérimental travaillant sur la science et la recherche des binaural beats et la modification de la conscience par le son. Après avoir tourné, il a continué à écrire de la musique sous l'alias Cotec puis a émergé comme l'artiste Subaqueous, mêlant son passé électronique à des techniques de production à la fois futuristes et organiques. À ce jour, il a sorti 3 albums et 4 EPs.
Isaac est aussi le fondateur et le gérant du label Invibe Music, qui représente certains des meilleurs artistes de musique électronique du Pacific Northwest et se spécialise dans la dance midtempo.
Dans ses cours Ableton Live, Isaac partage les techniques de production, de design sonore et d'écriture qu'il a passé des années à affiner — les compétences mêmes qu'il utilise pour transformer l'étincelle d'une idée en un morceau fini.
