At Per-vurt School, our aim is to always support education and grant our students the best we can to ensure they get an excellent learning experience even when their financial resources are limited. We believe that it is our responsibility to contribute in making education less of a privilege and more of a human right.

For that, we have come up with a financial aid that would extend the students course payments over a longer period of time while they enjoy taking the course stress free. The plan is to grant the students double the time it takes them to finish their course for them to complete the payments with 0% interest. Forexample, if the course duration is 5 months, the student can have 10 payment installments instead of 5.

For more information about our financial aid and how to apply for it please contact us here →

We launch a Music Production Master Program once every two months. The schedule covers two visits per week (of two hours each) from 6pm to 8pm. In some cases, we launch a class from 8pm to 10pm depending on the common free schedule of the majority of students.

The next Music Production Master Program starts within two months after you submit and confirm your application by a 300$ down-payment (Non-refundable and will be deducted from your total course fee). In case of Private Courses, the schedule is more flexible and can be discussed closely with the tutor based on your free schedule.

After you complete the Module One courses, you can stay in class with your fellow students and continue for Module Two, which covers 5 courses for a period of 2 months. This way you can complete the Music Production & Sound Design Master Program.

In case you chose to leave class after you have completed the Module One courses, you can decide to complete the Master Program later on in the future, however this will only be possible if taken in Private, which goes on a higher fee.

Knowledge, Talent, Skill, Practice, Passion and Patience are the main ingredients of success. At Per-vurt, not only we make sure that you get the most professional tutoring, but we make sure that we will be proud being represented by you in the dance music industry. For that, we have decided to not graduate the student without making sure that he/she is able to finish all required tasks. Knowledge alone is not enough though, practicing what you learn about is key.

Please note that this is not a full music production master program, it is part of a full program, this means you will be able to accomplish the tasks that are required and listed in this module. If you would like to master music production and sound design, then we recommend that you take the full Music Production Master Program that has one more module containing additional 5 courses.

Although we do not believe in major benefits behind receiving a certificate in DJ’ing or in Music Production, and because those two domains are not considered to be academic, we do grant certificates to the students taking the “Master Programs”. The certificate is only given to students who complete the program and present a final project that goes on par with our standards.

Completing the Module One only does not grant you a certificate, however you can always ask for a letter of completion and we would be glad to print out one for you.

Our Music Production School is equipped with the latest production gear. Each student has his own fully fledged station that includes the latest in MIDI and Audio Production technologies.

We advise that the student has the basic home studio setup that includes an audio card, a pair of flat monitors, and a MIDI controller. It is also very important to keep an eye on the room acoustics by installing absorption panels. We have written a detailed blog article about the essential home studio setup, read it here →


We are specialized in Electronic Music however we do not teach you WHAT to produce, we teach you HOW to do so. When you learn the art, technique, and science of Music Production, you will be able to produce your favorite style. It is very important to be familiar with the genre of music that you like, however it is more important to be unique and figure out your own style

One of the advantages you learn at Per-vurt is that we are also a record label chain that is connected with the world’s top DJs and Producers. We also sequentially host events and give the chance to our top students to perform live and experience the stage. “Per-vurt Sessions” is another platform we provide to our students to be noticed on social media and push their career forward.

When you graduate form this course and after you submit your final project, we will work closely with you to have you sign on a respected label and launch yourself as an artist in the global dance music industry.

Sharing and learning from a legendary producer is priceless and incredible.”

I attended his music production course with a very basic knowledge in music theory and he managed to transmit his knowledge in a clever, easy to follow manner without over-intellectualizing the information. Modest, unselfish and experienced would best describe this man. “
