GratuiTous (Riley Weller) has been teaching beatmaking & music production since 2011!
He specializes in piano improvisation.
His Piano Lessons for Producers training reveals all he knows about piano for music production focused on chords, melodies, and improvisation!
As a child, I took classical piano lessons, which I found so boring!
Reading sheet music.. playing other people’s music.. I was glad I quit!
Until I discovered beatmaking..
.. and noticed beatmakers don’t play piano like classical players!!
Here’s my free video about Beatmakers vs. Classical Piano Players
Every piano tutorial I found taught classical piano..
The tutorials would focus on reading sheet music.. or playing other people’s music..
BORING!!
I wanted to make my own beats from scratch..
And most importantly..
How piano related to making catchy beats and music production as a whole..
I knew piano was the secret of GOOD PRODUCERS..
..and couldn’t find piano training for producers anywhere!
But I eventually discovered the PIANO SECRETS!
Keep reading to find out how I learned secrets..
Look, I tried the “classical piano route”.. it’s not what beatmakers need!
You won’t learn improvisation!
Improvisation allows for creativity and making melodies on the fly!
Classical players are AMAZING.. but understand, it’s not beatmaking!
Beatmakers NEED improvisation!
Making a beat is all about making catchy loops, that are SIMPLE.
It’s A LOT harder than you think!
This is why learning piano for producers was so tricky.. because most piano knowledge is aimed at classical piano! But let me finish my story!!
I QUIT Piano! ..and couldn’t have been happier..
But at 19.. I was introduced to beatmaking..
And my biggest problem was:
How to use white and black piano notes together?
I then realized.. I NEED TO KNOW PIANO!!
I kept making beats.. but this was holding me back..
You’ll now discover the REAL piano secrets..
It was literally a gift from the LORD.
I was on my driveway when a neighbor asked,
“What have you been up to, Riley?”
I explained I started to make beats, but couldn’t figure out the white and black notes..
She said she taught piano! (I totally forgot!!)
I told her specifically I needed to learn how chords work.. and not reading sheet music..
She said knowing chords is how you IMPROVISE..
I couldn’t believe it! We were on the same page!!
We made a deal for piano lessons @ $18/lesson!!
My life changed that first piano lesson..
She explained to me:
This is how the white and black notes work..
You need to pick a key and scale!
– My neighbor piano teacher
I couldn’t believe it..
In the first lesson, I was improvising on a piano..
(At a beginner level.. but I was on the right path!!)
That night I researched and wrote down all the major and minor keys.. I was truly learning the piano improvising secrets!
I realized knowing every key and scale was way more than a beatmaker needed to know..
So I just stuck with one or two..
(Which really made learning easier)
I was so grateful that day I met my neighbor..
All it took was 3 PIANO LESSONS!!
Having her made all the difference!
Now I just had to practice “5 minutes a day”..
Which I still do!! (Just 5 Mins a Day!!)

I want to make sure we’re clear here..
To learn piano.. you must build MUSCLE MEMORY.
Only YOU can build your own muscle memory..
And this only comes from practicing piano properly.
My Piano Course teaches the knowledge.. but you must practice to build MUSCLE MEMORY..
Does that make sense?
That’s why basketball players always practice shooting hoops.. or why skateboarders practice ollies and kickflips!!
They build muscle memory so the task becomes natural!
You don’t need to practice for HOURS a day (we’re not classical piano players!)
Just 5 Minutes a Day, when practicing piano properly!
And.. My Piano Lessons for Producers Course will teach you HOW TO PRACTICE PIANO PROPERLY!
Once you see results with piano improvisation, you won’t want to quit!
I’m offering you the piano secrets to build muscle memory TODAY!
The secret is beatmakers need improvisation.
This comes from understanding how chords, notes, and melodies work on a piano.
Once you understand this basic music theory, it’s no longer a matter of how to create melodies..
It’s about choosing wise sound selection and matching the right melody to your beat.
There’s a difference between “guessing” what notes work, and knowing what notes work!
Once you understand Keys & Scales, you’re no longer guessing, and your creativity soars!
THEN you’ll be laser focused on making melodies that ACTUALLY match your beat!
Piano Lessons for Producers teaches how ALL this applies to music producers learning piano.
And because you get download access, you can easily re-watch anytime..
We cover improvisation, chords, keys & scales, playing with both hands, counting beats, what notes you’re allowed to play, and music theory all from a producer’s perspective!
I can teach you! But you have to put in the effort..
We focus on learning piano specifically for music production, which is aimed at producers and beatmakers.
This includes learning how a piano relates to music production like:

Piano Improvisation is the true art of playing piano without reading sheet music.
You are literally creating melodies that have never existed before.
Similar words to Improvisation would be: Spontaneously, On the Fly, Winging It, Ad-Libbing, Out of No Where.
The goal of Improvisation is so that when you make your beats, you can be VERY CREATIVE to make melodies.
Since you know what notes and chords you’re allowed to play, it’s all about practicing different rhythms and timings so you can adapt to any situation as a producer and play melodies over top of other melodies!
Of course all of this is taught in my Piano Lessons for Producers Course!
This course is aimed at the intermediate producer.. someone who already understands the basics of their DAW, and making beats at a basic level, otherwise it will be way too overwhelming learning piano improvisation AND how to make beats at the same time.
Understand that learning your music program (DAW), making beats, and music theory are 3 VERY DIFFERENT SUBJECTS.
This course will be teaching you the music theory and piano improvisation for music production.
So.. WHAT YOU NEED TO FOLLOW THE COURSE..
I personally prefer to practice on a real piano because it has quality piano keys with no latency.
While you can learn and play melodies on a MIDI Keyboard, the piano keys are cheap (even expensive MIDI Keyboards), and you’ll always get latency.
But.. any kind of piano will do.. as long as you have a piano with at least 49-Keys, you’ll be able to follow along and learn the piano secrets of improvisation in this Piano Course!
If you have a smaller 25-Key MIDI Keyboard, you can still follow along, but playing with two-hands will be hard!
The easiest way to learn piano for music production.
