Antoine Michaud
Hi I’m Antoine Michaud - ambient guitar artist on Youtube, touring musician for Canadian progressive rock band Mystery, and founder of Ambient Guitar Academy.
They say we live in the best era to produce music. But are we really?
Being an artist has now become incredibly simple: everyone can buy entry level equipment, build a home studio and share their music with the world online.
While it is very SIMPLE (make music and share it online), it is also very DIFFICULT because it is asking us to wear so many different hats.
A few decades earlier, artists only had to concentrate their efforts on playing their instruments.
They had:
- A label
- A team of engineers
- Writers
- Editors
- Producers
- PR people
- Assistants
….to take care of everything else.
Nowadays, producing an album at home demands us to be ''Jacks of all trades, masters of none''.
Doing the songwriting, arrangements, recording, editing, mixing, promotion & album art ourselves.
And so two things happen because of that…
1 – People try to release music anyways, but the product is of poor quality and does not get noticed (of course, because they're not masters at all of these tasks!). They feel discouraged because:
- Songs go nowhere
- Production sounds thin
- Album is badly edited
- Cover art looks cheap
- Marketing strategies are ineffective
2 – Most people never go through it. They get stuck at one step of the project and abandon the ship.
Are one of those… you?
What if you could get unstuck every step of the way while making your album?
What if you knew exactly WHAT to do and HOW to do it during the whole process to get a professional result?
- Not inspired to write song ideas? No problem, here are 5 powerful ways to write original song ideas.
- Can’t complete your song beyond that first little snippet? Here’s exactly how to complete your song skeletons.
- Your songs sound shaky, not as tight as professional releases? There you go – all the exact methods to edit and clean out your tracks.
- Don’t know how to make a great professional looking cover art? There it is – how to get a professional album art made for you in 5 days (and also how to make it by yourself for free with no prior experience in design).
I have been producing full length albums for more than a decade now through my artist name Monochrome Seasons.
With each of my 6 full length albums, I improved my skills and refined the process of self-producing an album from home.
And I’m now ready to share that whole blueprint with you, because…
That beautiful music in your head deserves to be released this year.
That’s why I made this full online course...

It is crazy how expensive it was to produce an album. I’m not talking 50 years ago, but until very recently!
Rick Beato said in this video that they spent $483 000 for a record (and that was almost in the years 2000's - very recently!)
Making music shouldn’t cost six figures, not even thousands. It should be accessible to all creative people who want to express themselves.
So I decided to distill all my experience of self-producing my albums in a highly actionable online course...
And that's why you can get access to 6 Months Album Production Blueprint instantly for only one payment of $297
