 TUITION REVIEWS

“Getting an opportunity to be tutored by one of your favorite musical artists can be a daunting thing. Harvey made that experience very worthwhile and enjoyable. Harvey opened up the lesson in a warm and welcoming way and I felt incredibly focused and ready to learn with his overviews of the music and techniques he commonly uses. Harvey went at a steady pace, going through his mindset with choosing and manipulating sounds to fit the vision he was going for. He gave me tons of new ideas for crafting my sounds into more personal representations of myself (no more presets!). I really enjoyed how simply he broke down his ideas into manageable pieces and how the complexity often came from layering basic fundamentals together. I feel that most anyone could seek out Harvey and gain a large amount of insight and technique from his lessons; I learned for an hour, but I feel what I got will expand into many, many hours more of learning and experimentation - you truly get your money's worth. I'd highly recommend Harvey's classes to anyone struggling to find that next step to take in your production, his lessons reignited my wonder and drive to produce, and I feel he can do the same for you.”

“Chime is extremely helpful and doesn't hold anything back during sessions. Whether you're a new producer or a seasoned producer looking for a new perspective, Chime will be able to help. Will definitely book again.”

- Josh Bornais

“I recently did a session with Chime and it was very inspirational to say the least. He really encouraged me in ways I didn't expect and also motivated me to be as unique and different as I can. I would definitely recommend sitting down 1 on 1 with him and letting him critique your sound and give input to your process as well :)”

- Tyler Shiffer

“Chime gave me great detailed feedback on my tracks during our session. He knew exactly what needed fixed, and as a result, it made my track sound better. He also gave me insight for doing promo and submitting to labels. Overall, informative session. I would book another session for sure!”

- Jeff T

“Learnt more in an hour than I did in countless YouTube videos! Currently writing up all my mental notes from the session & feeling hyped. Can't wait to implement all the advice and tricks & tips. We covered way more than I thought we would and everything was nicely specific to how I should implement it to my stuff which is awesome. Everything was really clearly explained and nothing left me with more questions or left me confused about what was said at all - whilst at the same time not giving me that information-overload vibe. I got the feeling Chime genuinely wants to make me a better producer which is something you don't often see. Really good session. Really nice dude. IGN 10/10. Would (will) book again.”

- Ross Hildick

“From the start I was really surprised to see just how much raw feedback Chime had bothered to give me as he made it clear that there was plenty to work on. It was really refreshing to see so much constructive criticism in comparison to the unwavering positive feedback that I and many new producers get from our friends. Not only did he point out issues and kinks that he noticed in my track (many more than I would have ever noticed) but he also left helpful suggestions on how to resolve them. This ranged from mixing techniques, ideas and plugins that he recommended and more. In conclusion, Chime clearly put quite a lot of time and effort into his analysis, which was very impressive for the very short time he took to carry it out. Definitely happy I've done this and would recommend to others.”

“It really is tough to get proper feedback from producers nowadays, as 9/10 times it's "this is good but i would change x and y, good work!" Harvey took the time to go through every part of my track and write his in depth thoughts, what could be improved/added, and shared techniques to pull off these improvements effectively. He also gave me tips on arrangement/flow that would create a more interesting experience for the listener. I had also asked a couple questions about his come up and marketing advice for a producer with no fan base. He answered in depth and provided valuable tips that will help me build a fan base and find the right avenues to help build my brand. I am very satisfied with the feedback Harvey has provided for me, and am very glad I pulled the trigger on this. Having thought I had most of everything in my track proper, it's nice to have a professional provide a fresh set of ears to give the feedback you need to take your track to the next level. It's easy to get lost on where to improve after listening to your own track 100s of times. Thanks for taking the time to do this Harvey!”

- Riley Howell

“Very in-depth in terms of answering questions and explains things very well. Left the session with a better understanding of what I could do to improve as well as more knowledge of how I can do things.”

- Samuel S

“This was very helpful for me! Was just the right amount of time to get what I needed and his input was very useful.”

- Spencer Weston

“Had a great, productive session with Chime! His feedback was insightful and helped me find a lot the of rough edges of my production & fix them. Thanks again man!”

- Chris Tragos

“I've been struggling with phasing happening during my mixdowns and Harvey showed me some fantastic ideas that I can incorporate into my mixes. I took what he said, applied it, and instantly improved my mix. Thanks for all your help!”

- James Motter

“The ease of access of learning materials for producers today, with YouTube and artist releasing master classes and workshops, is amazing - but it lends itself to a bit of a Black Hole of content. There is a reason that Medical Doctors still attend a university to learn their craft, as opposed to just buying college text books and studying on their own. When learning a skill that is as involved and diverse as the world of medicine - you need another experienced human to guide you through your weak points and to help emphasise your strengths. Music production is very similar. You can spend hundreds or even thousands of hours absorbing knowledge about production, but eventually you'll need an experienced mentor to help guide you through that last little chunk of the learning curve.

Harvey provides this mentorship extremely well. He is very a very knowledgeable musician and producer, and his experience can help anyone achieve a better sound. His feedback and teaching isn't based on subjective creative elements (e.g. you shouldn't use this piano because it sounds lame) but instead focuses on objective sonic elements (e.g. these two sounds are conflicting and figuring out a way to carve them both space will make for a cleaner sound). There is a big difference between those two things.

Having a teacher who can appreciate your creative style, but also provide education on how your own unique sound can be improved is quite invaluable!”

- Travis Stewart

“Went through every question I had in more detail than I could have ever hoped for. 10/10, absolutely would and will book another session in the future!”

- Edgar Black

“Had a tuition with Chime recently and i really recommend it. His explanations are always precise and easy to understand with examples directly from his music. It was really inspiring to be 1 on 1 with a credible producer who is not afraid to pass his knowledge. I will definitely do another one in the future.”

- Jason Letourneau

“The tutor session was super helpful and in just 30mins so much content and value was packed in. Harvey was being really helpful and informative. Not only did I get invaluable answer to lots of questions, the feedback on my track is eye-opening. I would definitely recommend and re-book in the future.”

- Hunter Ray

“Harvey (Chime) did an AMAZING job at explaining concepts in very simple terms that other sources have blown out of proportion and over-complicated. I have been in a rut hitting many road blocks with my productions due to the lack of direction without having anyone CREDIBLE to point out some things for me to work on. One of the major keys for me was finding someone I can trust that actually has a background and has experienced successful outcomes along their journey. Too many wanna-be's out there offering ineffective advice or saying "you need to do this, this, and this to make your mix/master or productions sound good". Skip the BS, stop wasting your time watching endless YouTube tutorials where everyone has conflicting opinions and have Chime walk you through what you can improve on. A 1on1 session with a credible artist (even if its not Chime) is a long term INVESTMENT into your personal development. I highly recommend a session with Chime and will definitely be booking him again when I hit another road block or need some advice. Thanks for reading, take care!”

- Zack Taylor

“Harvey is such a experienced producer and has such a deep knowledge about music that anyone can get something out of the tuition! He made me come one step closer to my dreams.”

- Kilian Kofler

“A very informative session. We covered pretty much all the topics I had wanted to learn about and Chime's explanations were clear and easy to understand. Overall, a very good experience which I recommend to anyone looking to level up their music production skills!”

- Jon Miyawaki

“Harvey offers a unique opportunity to learn from his firsthand experience. He provided detailed feedback for one of my tracks in a timely manner, and he was attentive to the questions that I had regarding his service. It has been an honour to learn from one of my favourite artists.

In addition to answering my questions, he has provided key points that will help me to improve my process. On top of that, this man is very kind, and so I would recommend this service to all producers that find themselves in a spot where they are unsure of how to move forward with their work.”
