PICTURE THIS

12 WEEKS FROM NOW,
YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY.

Not just a wannabe, you're a real producer. You have a 4-track EP ready to release, the start of a fan base, and a clear plan for what comes next.

YOUR MUSIC IS READY TO RELEASE

A cohesive 4-track EP, finished and ready to release on the platforms that matter. Real work that opens doors.

YOUR FAN BASE IS GROWING

You've done the work to start growing a loyal fan base who will support you in whatever you do.

YOU KNOW WHAT'S NEXT

A career roadmap with concrete next steps: distribution, PRO setup, branding, release strategy. The business side most producers never figure out alone.

HEAR FROM OUR STUDENTS

Preston (Sokota)

“He brought me on stage in front of 5,000 people to play our collab. It was probably the best minute of my entire life.”

Johnny

“I walked away with so much more than what I went in with.”

Gavin

“Everything that I didn't know I needed to know — you filled that gap.”

YOU'RE READY FOR THIS IF...

You have ideas you can't finish, and you're tired of starting tracks that never see the light of day.

You can produce, but you need advice from someone who has been in the place you want to be.

You're serious enough to commit 8 to 12 hours per week for 12 weeks and ready to invest in your career.

You're ready to stop learning random things on YouTube and start a structured process that will help you reach your goals faster. Shorten your path by years.

05

A Network You Can Lean On

FAQ

How does the application work?

You fill out a short questionnaire that takes about 5 minutes. If your answers are a fit, you'll be invited to book a private call directly with Max. The call is where you and Max decide together if the program is right for you. No high-pressure pitch.

What does it cost?

Pricing is discussed on the application call. Artist Accelerator is a serious investment in your career, with introductory pricing that won't return for future cohorts. Payment plans are available.

What genres does Max work with?

Max's artist project Protohype is rooted in bass music, but his teaching covers the full electronic spectrum. He has mentored producers across dubstep, house, tech house, drum and bass, and broader dance music.

How much time will it take?

Plan on 8 to 12 hours per week for 12 weeks. That includes session time, your own production work, and engagement with the cohort. If you can't commit that, this isn't the right time for you.

When are the live sessions?

Live sessions are held weekday evenings Pacific Time, and all sessions are recorded. If you're outside North America and can't make the live times, this program isn't the right fit right now.

YOU CAN KEEP DOING THIS ALONE.
OR YOU CAN START.

Twelve weeks from now, you can be where the producers in those videos are now. Or you can be exactly where you are today. Your move.
