About Rishaal
I have been DJing for 18 years and using Ableton Live since 2008. My background combines music, teaching, technology, and creative performance, so I know how to break down complex tools into clear, manageable steps. I can help you understand not only how to mix or produce, but how to listen more deeply, build better taste, and trust your own creative instincts.
As a certified classroom teacher, I bring patience, structure, and strong communication to my music lessons. As a DJ and producer, I bring real-world experience with track selection, flow, energy, transitions, effects, live performance, and creative experimentation. My goal is to help you become more confident, more musical, and more independent — not dependent on memorizing tricks.

My lessons are hands-on, practical, and adapted to your musical taste. We begin by understanding your goals: whether you want to mix your first DJ set, improve your transitions, organize your music library, understand rhythm and phrasing, build confidence with EQ and effects, or start producing and performing with Ableton Live.
A typical lesson might include listening to tracks together, identifying structure and energy, practising beatmatching or transitions, building a short set, exploring effects creatively, or creating loops and ideas in Ableton. I explain the “why” behind the technique so you are not just copying moves — you are learning how to make musical decisions.
Lessons are ideal for beginners, hobbyists, emerging DJs, music lovers, and producers who want a patient guide into DJing, Ableton Live, live jamming, and performance workflow. I teach online or from my own space, not at students’ homes.
