Founding

The academy was started in 2009 by Nakul Vagale and his partner with the intention to provide quality music education in India. Music is essence cannot be taught but can be experienced and passed down from musician to musician through experience and interpretation. With the advent of the Internet, information once inaccessible is now freely available to all, but the sheer amount of information available can be mind-boggling. With little or no control of the quality of information being passed and often unreliable practices, a student in the field would not know what is right or where to begin. At ILM Academy, the founders of the institute understood this and formulated a teaching approach, where practicing musicians act as guides rather than teachers and help students along their musical paths to achieve their learning.

In April 2012, ILM Academy, Gurgaon (Delhi-NCR) was founded by the ILM Academy original founder Nakul Vagale along with longtime supporter, friend and benefactor of the academy DJ/ Producer Arjun Vagale (Jalebee cartel).

I Love Music courses

Courses at I Love Music are normally 2 hours per day - 2 days a week with additional projects and practice time at the studio's. Though a minimum is set, students can avail of the studio facilities throughout their course duration subject to booking and availability.

  • DJ

A 3 month comprehensive program on DJ'ing. Students learn their basics on Turntables and progressive with technology onto CD players and then are introduced to Digital DJ'ing. This course also covers business aspects of the industry such as Marketing ones services, Music Business, Event management, Communication and presentation skills.

  • Advanced Digital DJ

Digital DJ's are the musicians of tomorrow, combing their skill on hardware such as CD players and Turntables coupled with midi able devices and software, a DJ knows no bounds to performance. Once students have mastered the hardware decks, they are exposed to the Digital world of DJ'ing to take their performance to the next level through a 1 month crash course. But mind-you, ILM Academy strongly believes in Hardware before software, at least till records and CD become obsolete.

  • Electronic Music Production (EMP)

As the name suggests, students will learn to make music electronically using software on a computer. Primarily music software included is Ableton. Students spend 5 months learning the fundamentals of EMP and the software platforms. Multiple other such Music Software exist, with the applications performing mostly the same tasks with a different GUI. The course comprises 3 modules :

  • Production techniques,
  • advanced production with mixing & mastering
  • Synthesis
  • DJ Producer

As the Dj craze catches on, it has become more and more difficult for serious artists to present themselves simply as DJ's. It is now as important for Djs to produce music to further their careers and get recognition. Music production is not so much a revenue generator for Dj's as much as a means to market ones self through spreading their unique sound and further giving them the ability to play and perform original music that they have created. The Academy developed the course over a period of two years at their gurgaon facility to introduce the 9 month DJ producer course. The course combines the EMP, DJ and Digital DJ individual course into a 9 month long part-time course allowing enough practice and self exploration time in the studio. Students who avail this course are benefited by learning music production first and then Dj'ing as recommended by the academy unlike other trainers who would go traditionally with DJ'ing before production.

  • Audio Engineering (AE)

The Audio Engineering Course at ILM, is unique in such form that the basis of the course is music. Expanding from the EMP course, the AE course including Audio Studio and related subjects: Recording, Microphones and micking techniques, Analog and digital mixers, Routing, Laying down a track, mix downs and mastering; as well as more Mass media related audio work such as dubbing, voiceovers, jingles, background scores, Sound design techniques and Business of Music. All of this is packed into a mere 1 year of intense hand-on classes with numerous projects and submissions.
