About Course

Producing Organic Sounds is an innovative production course led by sound explorer and producer DJ Flavya, where the raw textures of analog and organic sources take center stage. Designed for music creators eager to break away from digital presets and dive into more tactile, character-rich sound design, this course offers a fresh, hands-on approach to song creation. Through the lens of recreating Doja Cat’s hit “Woman,” Flavya walks you through each step of building a track entirely from organic sounds—before creatively flipping it into four additional genres, proving just how versatile and powerful these sounds can be.

The course begins with a deep dive into the creative process of listening, sampling, and building rhythms with organic textures. You’ll learn how to pick out key elements in different music styles, recreate compelling drum loops, and harness the flexibility of both MIDI and audio recording. This stage is all about opening your ears and training your producer’s intuition—learning how to hear potential in everyday, non-digital sounds and translate them into dynamic, modern production.

As your track comes to life, Flavya moves into advanced beat-building, layering analog samples, and navigating both Session and Arrangement views in your DAW. Then comes the real twist: she takes the same core project and completely restructures it into house, hip-hop, reggaeton, and downtempo variations—demonstrating genre-fluid production techniques that can elevate any musical project. You’ll leave this course not only with a powerful new toolkit for creating rich, organic soundscapes, but also with a deeper understanding of how to creatively adapt your work across multiple styles.
