A Platform for Music People to Learn, Build, and Go Further

The 808 Academy is a membership-based education platform for musicians, producers, engineers, and music lovers — combining structured learning, feedback, and real opportunities in one place.

Live teachers. Real feedback. No pre-recorded lessons.

Learn. Build. Collaborate. Create opportunities.

Membership unlocks the Platform (Student Lounge, community, contests, submissions, resources, and more).
