Grid Culture was founded with the intention of empowering aspiring electronic music-makers, through small private lessons, one student at a time. Syafiq Halid, Singapore’s first ever Ableton Certified Trainer, started his school with the belief that the non-classically trained were equally capable of musical prowess. Having utilised Ableton Live as a producer and performer himself, Syafiq has seen how this tool challenges conventional music creation methods and was convinced that it was able to introduce a paradigm shift in what most people understand of music-making.

Our Learning Philosophy:
Experimentation is a cornerstone of Grid Culture’s teaching methods. The team believes in letting learners take the rein in charting the direction of the lessons, by navigating important concepts through the lens of working on their own music project. Having students from different walks of life, the school prides itself on creating a learning experience that hits the sweet spot between challenge and comfort. Lessons are designed to have an optimal fit with the learner’s goals, proficiency and commitment level.
Today, the school stands as Singapore’s first ever Ableton Certified Training Centre and has seen many graduates emerge as independent self-made producers going on to create their own unique styles of music.
Grid Culture offers a variety of courses that equip students with creative techniques such Electronic Music Production For Beginners, Making Music With Push, Beat-making and Music Production with Ableton Live. Students can also delve into the software’s performance potential through the Performing Live course, or learn how to polish their sounds with the Mixing and Mastering course. Lessons are also customised according to the students’ proficiency level, in order to provide a comfortable learning pace.
