Synopsis

Whether you're already well on the way or just starting out as a DJ, gigging musician, electronic music producer or bedroom composer, you may know how to create great tracks using your software, but perhaps not the fundamentals of music theory. These basics apply to all music, whatever form or style, and having an understanding of them will help you take your music to higher levels, and make it easier to work with others. This accessible new guide equips you with the basics in a clear, easy-to-understand way, covering everything from the notes and notation, scales, rhythm and tempo, intervals, meter and chords.
