Been in the mentorship for around a year now and it’s completely changed how I approach making music. I’ve played music most of my life, did some formal study too, but nothing has helped my production like DNB Academy.

Seriously, I'm just glad this program exists. 10/10. Since day 1 I've felt like my coach Noopy and the rest of the team cares about my music and my results. I can’t wait to link up with everyone at Basscamp next month.

If you’re serious about learning drum & bass, this is a no‑brainer.

I purchased the bundle that includes the masterclass and access to the Vault. The platform itself is well built and contains genuinely valuable content, so there is definitely quality there. However, it comes at a significant cost.

I’m not a complete beginner in music production, but I am relatively new to drum and bass, so my goal was to gain more technical knowledge in this specific genre. I also had a consultation to explore whether progressing into their full program would make sense for me.

The program includes 1:1 sessions with producers, access to a Discord community, the Vault, and additional training. While this sounds comprehensive, the price is very high and, more importantly, the time commitment required didn’t align with my current lifestyle.

For that level of investment, I would suggest considering an alternative approach: reaching out directly to mid-level producers you admire and engaging with them informally first, as asking questions is often free. If needed, you can then arrange 1:1 sessions, which can be more cost-effective, flexible, and tailored to your specific needs.

The program strongly emphasizes teaching a structured “method,” almost like a secret recipe. I can see how this would be very valuable for complete beginners. However, for someone like me, who already has a foundation, I would have preferred more targeted, customised sessions rather than following a predefined process.

I also found the sales approach a bit too pushy. There is a sense of exclusivity in how the program is presented, as if being accepted is a privilege, but it feels more like a sales tactic. At times, the tone comes across as overly assertive, even bordering on arrogant.

My impression is that there is a strong focus on assessing whether you can afford the program, and once that is clear, the narrative shifts towards making you feel “selected.” While this may be part of their sales strategy, it creates unnecessary pressure. Ultimately, you are the one in control of your decision and your money, and it’s important to step back from that pressure and evaluate the offer objectively. I personally found this approach somewhat misleading and not entirely aligned with a transparent sales process.

Overall, there is solid content and a well-designed platform, but the cost, time commitment, and sales approach make it less suitable for those looking for flexibility and a more personalised learning experience.

I'm only 2/3 of the way through with the mentorship program and since joining DNB Academy I can already hear my music coming together faster, with more clarity, and headed towards a professional level.
Every mentorship session I learn something new. We've covered everything from sound design, through mixing, and mastering is coming up soon.
While their instruction and walk through videos are amazing, I've made significantly more progress with their mentorship program. One on one session and, almost, daily group sessions where professional drum and bass artists walk you through their process.
My favorite group sessions are the feedback. I don't always have a track to share, but it's inspiring to hear the work the rest of the mentorship students are working on.
I would highly recommend DNB Academy to anyone looking to take their drum and bass to the next level.

The 1-on-1 sessions were focused precisely on the main aspects that my music was lacking. This helped me to create a solid work flow, develop techniques that are relevant for the style of music I want to make and gain confidence in my own actions, instead of endlessly going through tutorials.

The group sessions are very helpful for getting inspiration about new techniques by seeing how professional producers go around making their music.

Lastly, the discord channel is an endless source of positivity and hype around dnb. It really helps me to stay motivated and excited about making music, since I do not have any producer friends in real life.

The hands on approach to learning drum and bass production is so effective. As somebody with pretty severe ADHD I have troubles watching tutorial videos to level up, but in the DNB Academy getting live feedback for my tracks has been a massive help for my production. The live zoom calls are super informative and the community built around it has been extremely supportive. All those questions I had about sound design are being answered in a highly constructive as well as friendly manner. Can't recommend enough!

DNB Academy is the perfect place to go if you truly want to level up your production, mixing, and mastering skills in all things drum and bass. Whether you're into jungle, neuro, minimal, or just want to be part of a passionate and supportive community that genuinely cares about the craft, this is the place to be.

Even though I’ve only been part of the Academy for about three weeks, my tracks and understanding of the production process have improved drastically. I’m now able to build drums from scratch that feel uniquely mine and create tracks that flow and stay engaging from start to finish.

And the best part? I’ve only scratched the surface. There’s still so much more to learn—from mastering the finer details of production to understanding the industry itself, growing your fan base, and building a solid reputation. Highly recommended for anyone serious about their DnB journey!

I'd been "producing" for about 6 months before I signed up to the academy. I was just getting stuck in loops and had no sense of what I was up to really, just going off all the conflicting tutorials I could find.

Joining the academy was the best move I could have made. The mentorship program is unreal. My one to one sessions with noopy have been like a light bulb switched on for me. He breaks things down in such a clear and concise way that helps you understand how and why to do things. After just a few sessions, no joke, my production improves 100 times!! His technicality in production is insane.

You also have all the feedback sessions with other mentors which are just amazing for helping you move tracks along. There's always someone ready to help and guide.

The coursework and videos are so detailed and really help with learning to work and think like a pro!!

I feel so blessed to be part of the amazing community that is dnb academy!! I'm so glad I made the jump, I'm a few months in and already got a release coming on a small label!! You really do get put what you put into this course and they offer so much.

To anyone thinking about wether the mentorship program is worth it or not ..... I'd say dont even hesitate!!

I did my 1-on-1 mentorship with Jon and honestly, it was a game changer. The amount I learnt in just a few sessions was insane — not just technical production techniques but also how to think like a professional artist. Jon broke things down in ways that finally clicked for me after years of trial and error.

The coursework and theory side of DnB Academy is incredibly valuable. It deepens your understanding and gives you the tools to apply your creativity with confidence and control.

Big thanks to everyone at DnB Academy — I’m genuinely grateful. You’ve created something special and it’s helping artists like me finally break through. Highly recommend to anyone serious about producing drum and bass.

I initially purchased the Molecular producer course. Fount the quality to be top notch and enjoyed how much content was packed into it. Ended up getting the full version of DNB Foundations with all of the bonus content. Its so much content I won't need another resource for a very long time. Happy with the content and the customer service I've gotten from DNB Academy.

DNB Academy is doing it right! Everything they offer in the mentorship program is extremely helpful. You learn the secrets here! Everything from sound design, post processing, arrangement, music theory, mixdown and mastering techniques, you name it, is taught here. The curriculum is top notch and well thought out which makes learning and working towards your goals more fun, especially with the help from your mentor. It really is something to look forward to each week throughout the course. Not to mention the amount of help within their discord community. Lots of love in there from the other students too. Also they have group sessions monday-friday hosted by different mentors for feedback on your tunes. They tell you what to fix and how to fix it and give examples and lessons too from their studios which is awesome. And you can reach out and ask for help anytime from anyone in the community. Lots of good support here, and the information shared here i doubt you can find anywhere else. If you want to learn from and work with professionals in the drum and bass industry you should go ahead and fill out the application now and submit!

I am currently half way through my DNB Academy mentorship program and I can really feel the support from my mentor and the whole community when I need it.

The 1:1 sessions are tailored to what I would like to learn. My mentor (Jon) is very experienced in multiple music production area, breaks down complex things in smaller bites so it is easy to understand and all of this in a friendly atmosphere. He ensures all my questions are answered.

The daily group sessions are great to listen to other members tunes and share your own work and get honest feedback.

The 24/7 access to video training and online community gives you the freedom to learn, share and ask questions whenever it is suitable to you. Since the community is global, there is always someone awake!

If you are willing to put the time and effort into learning Drum and Bass music production then DNB Academy will support you. The whole team treats you with respect and is really here to help you grow.

Really happy to have enrolled, 100% recommend.

DNB Academy are amazing! The service they provide is quality, the information and education they give in their mentorship program is top class. My experience with them has been brilliant and I’d recommend their services to anyone.

DNB Academy is absolutely brilliant. Their mentorship program focuses on the individual, with a full-blown curriculum, 1:1 mentoring, group sessions, and a full-blown community, which I can only call a proper DNB family.
They fully audit your process. This program is for literally everyone, from beginner to pro. There is value in it. This is DNB artists, teaching you directly to get the result you want, no wasting time, no faffing around.
They take you from the basic fundamentals, all the way to artist development and branding. It really is DNB heaven!
All I can say, Thank you DNB Academy :D

From the beginning of my enrollment in DNB Academy the team has went above and beyond to make sure that my training is thorough and personalized. I’m very grateful for the team and my personal instructor taking me through this journey of music production. I would recommend this training to any music producer looking to up their game. Let’s go!

Overall, the DNB Academy program is possibly the best thing for any producer that I have come acroos in my years of producing. Super helpful team, the mentors have huuuge knowledge of the music itself, the technicalities of producing and basicsally anything I ask about. 5/5
Love the community, everyone is super chill, theres endless opportunities of collaborating with others, or just connecting in any way. 5/5
For me, as I joined the program after learning more than just the basics of producing music, I kind of feel like the price is high, despite the huge bank of masterclasses and the daily feedback sessions. However, I still recommend it to everyone, for whom music is more than a hobby.

DNB Academy is an excellent resource for anyone looking to enhance their drum and bass production skills, whether you're just starting out or already have some experience. The courses are structured to cater to both beginners and more advanced producers, making it easy to build a strong foundation or take your skills to the next level. The instructors are knowledgeable and offer clear, actionable insights, ensuring you learn the techniques and concepts that matter most. I highly recommend DNB Academy to any producer ready to level up their game and dive deeper into the world of drum and bass!

If you want to learn DNB production to a professional standard, then the DNB Academy is for you! After completing the course, not only am I confident at understanding sound, sound design, mixing and mastering music, but I have made unbelievable progress in such a short time. Consequently, I am now about to release my first tune on Spotify which i never thought possible before! The DNB Academy will connect you to other artists and pros in the scene, provide you with incredible video content online (only for the 1:1 mentorship students), give you regular 1:1 sessions (for 12 weeks) to enhance your skills and provide weekly feedback sessions so your music can get professional feedback (even when you've finished the course). I am so grateful I made the decision to join the course and can now look forward to a promising future in music production! 100% would recommend! - Hatts

I've never felt more confident in my music. I've been producing other genres for over a decade but found a big struggle with mixing + mastering drum and bass. DNB Academy has helped me in overcoming those struggles in a few short months. I'm confident in my music now more than ever and I honestly don't think I could've done it without them. If you're on the fence about joining & you're reading this review; do it.

As the name itself says, DnB Academy, and for me its more than an Academy, its an authentic community that truly helps you evolve and progress in your music journey the way you visualize and aspire to do your crafting in music as an artist! The investment is worth completely 100%! Highly recommend it’
