He has taught me valuable industry-level information that I don't think I'd actually be able to find anywhere else such as sound design and music for adverts, how to quickly put together high quality mash ups and sound synthesis. He has also taught me quicker ways to mix, basic music theory and how to apply it to my DJing and how to properly use compression (which was the first time in my life compression has actually made sense to me).
His methods of teaching was very engaging and practical and was also all recorded which I have found to be very useful as if I forget anything I can just rewatch part of a lesson.
Alicia organises the whole schedule extremely well with a really nice balance of lab sessions to studio lessons and is also super kind.
The lab sessions were also great and I loved being able to use their upstairs studio for my own music production or homework.
Both Reuben and Alicia were very hospitable and friendly. And I was surprised that it felt less like generic teaching and more like just hanging out with friends that happen to know everything about music production and every single shortcut on Ableton and on Apple.
I am also very grateful to them for letting me tag along and perform at one of their DJ nights in KL which was great fun and showed to me again that they really just want to see their students succeed and have fun.

All in all, I would highly recommend learning at MHS. The facilities are great, they keep in touch after your course ends and it's very inspiring to being taught by someone who is currently in the industry having a very successful career.

Once again a massive thank you to both of you at MHS you have really pushed me in the exact direction I want to go in to achieve my biggest goals in the music industry. read less

I had about 2 years of prior ableton usage and experience and wanted to learn more about ableton live so I enrolled into the Engineering With Live and Singer/Songwriter Course Plus at Mile High Sounds! Dive in deep into Ableton live and learn from the best. Reuben is an amazing, funny and talented mentor who will aid you in your music production providing things that I never knew I could achieve inside of Ableton with just stock plugins. No class was ever boring with Reuben as he guided me with his expertise and knowledge to enhance my workflow (session view), teaching me how to optimize chords so mids and lows don't clash, and especially teaching me how to mix my tracks and getting the song to sound the way that I like it. I was mindblown by the information that I was taught every week!

The studios and studio monitors that they have setup for labs and classes are amazing to use, play around and write songs with, Mile High Sounds 1000% understand how to set the mood for producers and singer/songwriters! I had so much fun mixing, producing and listening to tracks in the studio!

All in all if you truly want to understand music production better you definitely need to enroll and see for yourself. Mile High Sounds is ahead of the game and has elevated my mixing, producing and songwriting abilities.

Many thanks to Reuben for igniting my passion for music and being my mentor and to Alicia for helping me coordinate classes and schedule the studio for use for my lab sessions! Love you guys! ❤️ read less

When he talks about music, I feel it’s a whole new language. And he gives the pathway to understand the root of it. No one teaches like him. You can discover your own rhythm and explore what you feel, instead of having someone teach you the basic framework. He finds a way to inspire you to become better and gives clear guidance how to take it to the next level. Every session is recorded (screen/audio) and accessible on a google drive. I highly recommend MHS. It is the best investment you can make to find your true self in music & reach beyond what you think is possible 🙏 read less

Reuben gave me an introduction session and within 10 minutes, I was sold.

Reuben is genuinely passionate about teaching which is something you don’t come across very often. He goes the extra mile to ensure his students understands, customizes each lesson according to the student and their own quirks, is generous with his time, extremely patient and is a true artist. Not to mention, his classes are super fun and funny!

I’ve never seen music the way he explains it and I’ll never be able to see music the same way again.

Moreover, the whole team at MHS is just so welcoming! Alicia ensures a smooth class session every week with scheduling arrangements and is always prompt with session recording uploads which is available for every student to refer to. The studio is so cozy as well and it has an awesome sound system!

He gave me invaluable tips on speeding workflow, and opened my eyes to the powerful possibilities of designing my own sounds simply by making my own instrument racks and chains. His ears are golden, and I learned a ton about how to mix effectively and quickly. After taking 8 classes, I stopped desiring buying plugins, instead focusing on making my own unique sounds.
Reuben is also a friendly and smart guy. I noticed many of his old students frequently visiting him.
I considered myself an intermediate student. After finishing the course, I got the confidence to stop entering remix contests and pitch my first professional client, and he is very satisfied with my work. read less

I’ve been a session musician for many years, and know the ropes on the gigging circuit, but wanted to excel in my recording abilities (properly learn how mix and master). Reuben (my trainer) has been an inspiration, and has managed to tailor all of my sessions from the perspective of an experienced musician (which is hard to find from a studio), and I have been blowed away by his insight and knowledge ever since. I rebook weekly, and have learnt so much that I now feel confident finishing off my projects by myself (and have done!).
As a team they are super friendly and helpful, and unlike other studios, offer so much more than just what you pay for. I feel like it’s taken me a lifetime to find a studio and trainer I am completely satisfied and inspired by, and am so grateful that I was introduced to Reuben and Mike High Sounds by a mutual singer friend.
I’m so excited to see what the future holds, and my eyes have been opened to a producing world I never knew existed, while consistently giving me the tools to navigate this new world and explore for myself.
Cannot recommend highly enough, 6/5 stars! read less

Not only was everyone at the studio warm, patient and supportive throughout the process, but also absolutely professional and showed genuine interest in achieving a final product that I was happy with. Reuben is a sound wizard. He works meticulously, efficiently and really knows what he's doing/talking about. Was also just chill and comfortable to work with in general, gracious with his time, and offered insightful little tidbits about recording music along the way.

An added thing that was very welcoming: the location and studio space. The location aesthetic and cozy studio setup is perfect for creative work, especially over longer periods of time.

Overall a superb experience. I couldn't have asked for anything better. 5 stars! read less

Reuben's teaching, plus the studio facilities at MHS, deserve the very highest recommendation.

I came to MHS to make music and develop production skills. What I found is that there is no substitute for learning the Ableton craft from someone with the full range of real experience and ability.... Reuben has it all - the technique of a professionally-qualified recording engineer, the ear of a classical musician, as well as years of proper time spent behind the decks as a DJ. This means he can analyse individual issues from different perspectives and explain Ableton in a way that is musical and creative, as well as technically grounded. The courses offer real value, getting straight to what I needed to know, which meant I learned more in the first couple of hours with him than I could in days with other tutors. There is flexibility about how to structure the learning process and Reuben was able to tailor the courses to my individual needs and level of progress. Everything was really well-organised from start to finish, with outstanding comms from Alicia who made sure the scheduling all worked well, that I knew where to go when I arrived in KL and answering all my questions before I arrived.

The studio is very, very well-equipped throughout, large display screens, quality monitor speakers, tonnes of different controllers and DJ equipment to adapt to different projects. The spaces within the studio are comfy and welcoming, a creative place that makes you want to produce. The teaching area sounds fantastic through the Eve monitors, really crisp, and several of the rooms are properly soundproofed with floating floors and no a/c or fan noise. Thanks also to Zack for welcoming me and making sure everything went smoothly. The lessons were all recorded with screen grabs and head-set audio recordings, so I can go back-over what we did in each session. All in all, I can't speak highly enough of MHS and have no complaints whatsoever - seriously impressed with what Reuben and Alicia are achieving here!!

The after-care for the course was of the highest quality, following-up with any questions I had, so that I really felt like I joined the MHS circle. I wouldn't hesitate to do it all again and I will definitely be back in KL soon to drop in MHS. Thanks guys! read less

It’s not just how good the teachers are but how well they handle doubts and concerns for every student walking in. I haven’t started classes yet but I am very excited to be around Amazing people 🙂 they also are very professional and will help you choose a pathway that is financially reasonable. If you are reading this and thinking of producing/soundengineering/Dj-Ing, just give them a call/text! It’s one of the things I find to be my greatest blessings of 2018! 💖 Lish And Reuben are two of the humblest and friendly yet knowledgable music people you’ll ever meet. The centre is also very well kept and clean ❤️❤️ It’s an experience the moment you walk in and take your shoes off. read less

The medley / remix that was done up for me perfectly matches my requirements with minimal amendments and at the shortest time. He works efficiently. With great understanding of musicality and performers requirement, it is very easy to communicate your ideas, exchange thoughts and definitely getting great constructive advises from him. Their skills are magical: Regardless of the complexity and diversity of beats, music genre, pitching, they managed to compose them to make it become 1 single track (but of course, you need to know what you want! Don't be a bimbo client & say what you "feel" but yet don't know what you want & what you "feel dislike" & yet don't know what in actual you dislike.
