what if making music were a playground?

create the music you hear in your head and unlock your full artistic potential

You have dreams of building a music career — performing live, touring, building a following... but the gap between the music you hear in your head and the music you can actually make right now is vast. Your phone's full of voice memos and half-ideas, but hiring a producer is expensive and it's never quite right. And learning to do it yourself? Overwhelming doesn't begin to cover it.

You've tried to learn production yourself... you've gone down the YouTube rabbit hole, watched tutorial after tutorial, and still felt more lost than when you started. Plus, every time you finally dedicate yourself to pursuing your dreams, something always comes up, and your music gets pushed to the back burner. 

You're tired of paying a producer every time you have an idea... waiting on someone else's schedule, hoping they get your vision, ending up with something that's almost right but never quite yours. You know you could do this yourself, you just don't know how... and that desire to finally learn doesn't go away. You can start now, or wake up in five years wishing you'd started five years ago.

Progress feels impossible when you're trudging
through it alone with no map

So your music stays stuck... not because you're not talented enough or because you don't want it badly enough, but because nobody has shown you a clear, simple path from the music in your head to a finished track you're proud to share with the world.

Over the last five years, I've taught hundreds of students, and here's what I've learned:

 

Most people don't give up on music production because they can't do it. They give up because learning it feels so technical and so overwhelming that it stops being fun long before it gets good.

 

​

But I believe music production should be fun. And easy. And if it's not fun and easy, it's because it hasn't been explained properly.
 

I spent years building a curriculum that breaks complex production techniques into clear, digestible lessons — ones that get you producing with excitement and confidence, instead of panic and overwhelm.
 

The Sound Playground doesn't focus on one genre. It gives you the tools to explore your own creative limits and find your own sound. My approach is playful, not prescribed. Experimental, not cookie-cutter. Inspiring, not draining.
 

My job isn't to turn you into a Grammy-winning producer overnight. It's to make learning to produce your own music actually feel good and exciting, so you keep opening your laptop, day after day, long enough to find out what you're really capable of.

 

​

Let me hold your hand through the techie stuff so you can focus on what actually matters:
 
​
the creativity, the expression, and the fun.

"I have seen a huge increase in my production skills since taking Lillian’s class and it’s one of the best investments I’ve ever made for myself as an artist”

- Moon Magic

"One of the best classes I have ever taken in my life! It is packed with information presented in a very easy to digest way [...] I'm still wading through it and still learning things"

- Dylan Harley

"'I'd used Garageband for 10 years — learning things on YouTube as I went — but I knew the limitations and knew that if I didn't make a change I never would. The class was even better than I expected, taking it was one of the best musical decisions I've ever made."

- Justin Cox

Hi I'm Lillian, and I'm going to teach you how to produce music.

​​​

For years, I was a singer and songwriter with dreams of touring the world with my music; when I discovered music production for the first time my brain exploded with all the musical possibilities. I could hear fully-produced songs running through my head, but I had no idea how to get them out.

 

At first I tried working with producers to bring my vision to life. I remember sitting in a stuffy studio, not being allowed to touch any of the fancy equipment, and thinking to myself, “why are all these guys pushing the buttons for me!?” I knew I would never be able to realize my full artistry until I learned the skills for myself, so that's what I set out to do.

 

In the beginning, learning production was so overwhelming I almost quit. I remember the first time I opened up Ableton and thought to myself "holy sh•t there’s no way I’ll ever learn what all of this means.” But slowly and surely, day by day, it started to make sense. And the more I learned, the more I realized it's actually not that hard: music production actually makes total sense... if it's explained properly. 

 

And that's why I created The Sound Playground: because I know how to make learning music production fun and easy. I believe every musician deserves to hear the music they have inside them, and I know that having the right teacher and structure changes everything. I'm here to guide you.

Here's what The Sound Playground gets you...

30+ Modules

A clear, structured path from opening Ableton  Live for the first time to finishing a full song.

20+ Hours of Instruction

Everything from the basics to advanced techniques: drum and MIDI programming, live recording, synthesis, sampling, sound design, arrangement and more. 

Notes and Homework

Notes so you can stay focused on the lesson at hand and refer to them later; homework to reinforce the concepts as you move through the course.

The Sound Playground will teach you, start to finish, how to produce music so you can finally create and release music that is authentic to you. 

"I started The Sound Playground class with literally no music production experience and have ended it with a song I am proud to enough to publish on Spotify. If you're a musician who's looking to create something that's good enough to publish, [...] I cannot recommend this class enough."
