Akriza Presents
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Musicverse
Sept 27 - Nov 15
Create a ripple in the universe through the power of music.
It starts with a feeling. A beat. A melody.
​
A song gifted to you by the universe
You have the drive and desire.
The cosmic calling to create…
Yet, you get discouraged.
​
Maybe you don’t know where to start.
​
Maybe you feel overwhelmed with trying to figure
out where to invest your time and energy.
​
Maybe you don’t know how to make the song
sound like your original vision.
​
Maybe you worry it will never be good enough
to truly make the ripple you KNOW it can.
I get it. & I’ve been there...
​
In a world saturated in music, all of our blocks come to the surface.
​
Imposter syndrome. Inadequacy. Doubt. Fear.
​
& we find ourselves asking, “Would anyone even listen?”, “Does my art matter?”, "Is it even worth it to invest time and energy into this passion?"
​
I am here to tell you that your art matters, that it is worth it.
​
I want to show you how you can have a major
impact on the world around you.
​
I want to inspire you to devote to your craft.
​
To consistently create songs that you are proud of.
​
I want to teach you my tried & true process for consistently creating meaningful and powerful music.
​
Music is not about you, not about fame, not about gaining attention, not about accolades. It’s about the legacy you leave through the way that your music MOVES people.
​
Music moves people in different ways — emotionally, spiritually, mentally, physically.
​
It’s a direct transmission of the heart: it inspires, it enlivens, it activates, and it has the power to create change.
​
It’s a ripple in the universe.
​
I am here to show you how to inspire movement through your sound and create an impact by inspiring movement in the collective.
​
Music is one of the biggest gifts you can offer to this world and your sound matters. Your song matters. The world deserves your excellence.
​
Are you ready?
​
Introducing...
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Musicverse
I'm so stoked to introduce the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Musicverse, a two-month container - the complete toolkit to level up your music production. This container will give you the skills, tools, and knowledge to write a song from start to finish and to be able to repeat the process time and time again. You’ll get insight into the tricks and hacks of my process from start to finish and be armed with the confidence to keep up consistent and regular practice. By the end of this two-month experience, you will have a clear vision for your project, know your sound, have the skills to create that sound, mix and master your music, and be able to confidently share and distribute your music.
The Offering
Are you ready to leave mediocre music behind and join a select group of producers who understand the power of a well-developed sound? Introducing the Level 1 Music Production Course -- Two Months of Growth and Development. With this course, you'll be equipped to create a super solid song that is properly mixed, mastered, and ready to distribute!
​

This will only be the case for the first round.
​
You'll get access to 2 months of support and education from Akriza, including:

*Your success in finishing a song depends on your effort, attention, attendance, and devotion to this container and your music project. I will have a couple of mastering engineers for you to work with that you will pay directly for their mastering services.

About Akriza
Akriza has been producing music, both classical and electronic, for over two decades. He is a classically trained pianist and has a degree in audio engineering.
Akriza formally started his music project in 2020 and had his first release as Akriza on High Vibe Records Nov. 11th, 2020. Since then, he has had over 2 million streams, has over 85 finished songs in his catalog, and has a release on Gravitas Records. He has played at many festivals and shows since then and is always working to better and advance his music career
​
Through all of this, he has envisioned and perfected a process for writing music efficiently, effectively, and prolifically. Through this process, he has acquired a sense of vulnerability and authenticity that he believes can help others to pursue their dreams no matter the circumstance.
This course is his passion project--to share his wisdom and learnings from a lifetime steeped in music. He's mostly self-taught, and knows it can be a long and challenging road for most people trying to figure out where to start and how to get going. Once you find your vision and your sound and have a tried-and-true process, your musical vision becomes a lot easier to produce.
Akriza is a dedicated musician who strives to be an inspiration for others in their creative endeavors. He believes that he is creating a ripple in the universe through the power of music.
When you avoid taking action on your dream, you will look back years later wishing you had started when when you had the fire and inspiration to bring your dream to fruition. Who do you want to be, the person taking action now or the person looking back wishing they were 5 years ahead of the game?
If you want to bring your dreams to fruition it is imperative that you devote fully to your artistry, develop a process, and commit to practicing on a regular basis. You will get stuck and you will want to quit, but this course will give you the tools to persevere and succeed so you can look back at yourself in 5 years and be like, "damn, I did it".
I will guide you through the hardest part of the process, creating and releasing your first song. Once you do this, everything else becomes so much easier.
There's a term in coding called "Hello, World" which is a metaphor for getting your minimum viable product launched. When you do this, the rest of the process becomes more straightforward. This course will be your Hello, World: it's the first step in unleashing your inner creativity and paving the way for success with your music goals. It's the foundation from which you can build, grow, and create music that is uniquely yours.You will have done the hardest part of the process and will now have the tools to replicate it time and time again.
Don't wait to get started any longer, the time is now...
