Hi. I’m just wondering if anyone could recommend good books or ebooks on electronic music production. I’m going travelling for a short while and want something to keep the mind active. I don’t think I can bring any machines with me.
Not necessarily hardware related but more on mixing and processing of sounds within a DAW is what I’m after.
Thanks in advance:)
I found this informative link just now geared more towards techno…

… but if anyone else has any suggestions I’d still love to hear;)
Sorry, no links (posting from mobile).
Making Music - 74 Creative Strategies for Electronic Music Producers [Dennis DeSantis]
Mixing Secrets for The Small Studio [Mike Senior] - really good one!
Harmony for Computer Musicians [Michael Hewit]
Music Theory for Computer Musician [Michael Hewit]
Composition for Computer Musician [Michael Hewit]
Great, thanks for that cube48. I’ll have a look into the first two for sure. Appreciate the effort to help:) Have a nice day.
Secrets of House Music Production from Sample Magic is pretty good
Cheers. Not crazy about the music styles in this book… but I had a look through and it looks like a lot of the knowhow can be applied to any genre.
Many thanks!
Secreets of house music covers all the basics, it is kind of a Manual.
the Dance Music Manual is also good for the basics.
Any music style: Mixing secrets and Mixing Audio are great
Hello! Recommend you check “Good Musician” by Shadow Producers ([https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072M8QRLN]). It is by far the biggest glossary of all music production words, acoustics terms, EDM genres, audio engineering terminology, recording vocabulary, and electronic music theory definitions. Cheers)
