I did a 4 week mentorship with Ian Prince. I brought a few song drafts to our intro session and we narrowed down to one track to focus on for the duration of the mentorship. What an absolute joy it was having him as a teacher. He provided such wisdom, insight, and actionable feedback, and opened my ears and mind to new ways of approaching structure, writing, production, and sonic depth. He guided me through the tools with a very hands-on approach, demoing/screensharing stuff live, and even helped me with specific elements by singing or improving instrumentation examples over my existing tracks. The specificity and concrete demos really helped me understand what he was talking about, in addition to his clear communication even about more abstract elements and concepts. He was so approachable and incredibly generous with his time, and I truly felt inspired throughout the process.
