private school

London School of Electronic Music

Small-group DJ and production courses (mostly 3 months, from £295/month) plus 1-to-1 coaching from £50/hour, with a free trial webcam hour on offer.

Classes run at rented third-party studios (Qube Elephant & Castle, Qube Hackney Wick and Pirate Studios Dalston) rather than a dedicated LSEM venue, so treat any single fixed address as provisional.

Tutors carry genuinely checkable industry credits: releases on labels including Klockworks, Soma Records and Sony RCA. Its student label, Fresh Beats Records, has at least one verifiable released EP by an alumnus, plus a Netil Radio show and Bloop London livestream slots.

Despite teaching Ableton, LSEM is not listed as an Ableton Certified Training Center, unlike several London competitors. No phone number is published.
