Learn how to touch others with your own voice by grasping essential vocal techniques. Impress people by mastering your own singing style. Discover all the different ways you can sing one song. Finally, be able to create and improvise vocal melodies over any chord progression.

The bass guitar is often overlooked in a band as the bassist stands at the back. What many do not realize is the importance of the rhythm section, bass and drums, in providing support for the whole band. Not only does the bass make a band sound thicker and richer, it also drives the music with its groove.

Learn how to groove with strong bass melody lines and understand the different styles of playing the bass for different styles of music.

Slapping and plucking with us is:

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
My brain is dead,
And this song too.

How many times have you felt this way while writing a song? Writer's block, lack of inspiration, not enough ideas... You name it, we have also experienced it. Most times, being unable to complete, or even start on a song, is due to limited musical knowledge on music composition.

But do not let the journey end here. Thunder Rock School can help you to continue this songwriting journey as we expose our students to the various methods of effective songwriting.

Waxing lyrical with us are:

Ever wondered how music you listen to was produced? And why do some songs sound better than others?

Good audio production enhances the way a song was written and arranged, and can certainly add different dimensions to the music.

Mixing the consoles with us are:
Leonard Soosay (Gorillaz, John Lennon, Rachael Yamagata, Electrico, The Great Spy Experiment, and etc.)

It's not easy to be a good DJ. A good DJ must have the ability to energize spectators, hype the crowd up, and bring people on their feet. Being able to bring that level of energy to a room is much harder than it sounds.

Our experienced trainers are renowned resident DJs and electronic music producers.
