This is not a video course. This is a living academy.

A weekly rhythm of async lessons, live mentoring, real feedback,
and music you actually build.

A Week Inside TMMP

Every week has a rhythm.
Every week you build something real.

Async content during the week. You apply it to your own music. At the end of the week, Fran sits with your group — twelve people, one hour — to hear what you built. The community is always open in between.

01 — During the Week

Async Content

Video lessons and DAW exercises applied directly to your own music. Your track is always the instrument.

02 — End of Week

Live with Fran

One hour. Maximum 12 producers. Your music discussed in real time. Can't make it? Every session is recorded and added to your library.

03 — Always Open

Community

A focused space built around real music and real growth. Share work in progress, ask why something isn't working, watch how others solve the same problems.

04 — Your Own Pace

Progress

Complete quests, earn marks, submit milestone projects. When your work is approved, unlock a private 15-minute review with Fran.

The TMMP Path

A progressive academy path.
One unified musical system.

The path opens ahead of you. You decide the pace. New stages become available as the Academy grows — you can always go slower, revisit earlier work, and move at the speed your music needs. There are no deadlines and your progress never resets.

Milestone 01

Ear & Map

Stop guessing what you're hearing. Learn to feel tension, rest, gravity, and color — then map those sounds directly inside the piano roll.

Milestone 02

Composition

Write with intention instead of trial and error. Chords, bass lines, hooks, motifs, groove, and musical ideas that can actually grow.

Milestone 03

Structure

Break free from 4-bar loops. Build contrast, energy, transitions, and real musical storytelling beyond the loop.

Milestone 04

Melodic Lanes

Make multiple lines work together — melody, bass, inner movement, countermelodies, and counterpoint designed for the piano roll generation.

Milestone 05

Your Style

Use the full system to shape music that sounds intentional, personal, and recognizably yours.

What does each milestone produce?
  • Ear & Map: an annotated loop showing tension, rest, gravity, and tonal center — in your own track.
  • Composition: a developed musical idea with chords, bass, hook, motif, and groove.
  • Structure: a section or full-track map that moves beyond the loop.
  • Melodic Lanes: a project with melody, bass, inner movement, and countermelodies working together.
  • Your Style: a finished track or cue that sounds intentional, personal, and recognizably yours.
Guided Progress

Open access.
Real momentum.

You can always go slower, revisit earlier stages, and work at your own pace. Progress is tracked through work submitted, approved, and recognized.

01

Creative Quests

Small focused assignments inside your DAW. Applied to your own music at each stage.

02

Boss Challenge

One larger project per milestone proving you can apply the system — not in a drill, in your actual music.

03

Work Approved

Submit your milestone project. Reviewed against the purpose of that stage.

04

Milestone Review

Once approved, unlock a private 15-minute 1:1 with Fran — focused entirely on your music and your next step.

How do Creative Quests and Boss Challenges work?

Every milestone includes short Creative Quests — focused exercises inside your DAW applied to your real sessions. At the end of each milestone, a Boss Challenge brings everything together into one project using your own music.

  • Creative Quests: targeted exercises applied to your real sessions — not isolated examples.
  • Boss Challenges: the milestone project that proves you can use the system, not just understand it.
  • Portfolio: every milestone leaves you with real musical evidence of your progress.

01

Submit the work

Complete the Creative Quests and Boss Challenge for that milestone using your own music.

02

Your work is reviewed against the purpose of that milestone stage.

Community

You are never
between sessions.

The community is where the week happens.

Between the async content and the live session, the community is always open. Share work in progress, ask why something isn't working, and watch how other producers solve the same musical problems you are facing. This is not a noisy space full of random chat — it is a focused, high-signal environment built around real music and real growth.

Weekly Live Sessions

Groups of up to 12. One hour with Fran. Every session recorded — available in your library if you can't attend live.

Work in Progress

Share your tracks at any stage. Get focused feedback from Fran and from producers working through the same system.

Progress Shares

Post completed quests, milestone wins, and before/after comparisons. Growth is visible here.

Member Showcase

Selected finished work is featured in TMMP showcases. Your music, heard by the community.

TMMP Marks

Progress you can see.
Recognition you earn.

Marks are earned through approved work — not time, not payment, not self-assessment. Each mark carries the name of a concept because it proves you can apply it.

Ear Before Name

Identify tension, rest, gravity, and tonal center by ear inside your own track.

The Movable 1

Move musical function across keys inside the piano roll with the same map.

Loop Breaker

Turn a 4-bar idea into a developed section with contrast, energy, and direction.

Melodic Lanes

Write melody, bass, and inner movement that interact — not just coexist.

Conscious Control

Explain in writing why your track works and what you would change — and why.

Unlockables

Resources that help.

Templates, session files, cheat sheets, and frameworks unlock as you complete each milestone.

Certificate

Official recognition.

Complete the full path, submit the final project, receive approval — and earn the TMMP Academy Certificate.

Completion

Complete the path.
Mark the achievement.

Platinum Producer Plaque

When you complete all five milestones, submit the final project, and receive approval, you earn the official TMMP Academy Certificate. Approved graduates also receive a physical Platinum Producer Plaque for their studio.

This is not a digital badge. It is a physical object — the kind that goes on the wall behind you when you record, the kind you photograph and post, the kind that says you did the work.

Graduation is tied to the submission and approval of your final Your Style project — not time. When your music is ready, so are you.

Physical plaques are shipped in scheduled graduation batches.

Academy FAQ

Questions before you enter.

Can I access all five milestones from day one?
The curriculum opens progressively — new stages become available as the Academy grows. You can always go slower, revisit earlier work, and move at your own pace. There are no deadlines and your progress never resets.
How long does the path take to complete?
There is no deadline. Most members are expected to complete the full path in 10–14 months — but some will move faster, some slower, and both are fine. Your progress does not reset if you pause your membership and return.
What if I miss a live session?
Every live session is recorded and added to your library. You can watch the recording and stay on track with your path regardless of whether you attended live.
How do Milestone Reviews work?
When you complete the required Creative Quests and Boss Challenge for a milestone and your work is approved, you unlock a private 15-minute session with Fran. One review per milestone, included in your membership while active. Scheduled through Calendly and subject to Fran's availability.
Do I have to follow the path in order?
You can explore freely, but the recommended order is designed to build the system properly. The milestones build on each other — Composition makes more sense after Ear & Map, Structure makes more sense after Composition.
What happens if I move slowly?
That is expected. TMMP is built around your real music, not artificial deadlines. Your progress does not reset. Your Milestone Review credits stay active as long as your membership is active.
What is the Platinum Producer Plaque?
A physical graduation plaque awarded to approved members who complete the full TMMP Path. Shipped in scheduled graduation batches.
