Whether you're already well on the way or just starting out as a DJ, gigging musician, electronic music producer or bedroom composer, you may know how to create great tracks using your software, but perhaps not the fundamentals of music theory.

This accessible new guide equips you with the basics in a clear, easy-to-understand way, covering everything from the notes and notation, scales, rhythm and tempo, intervals, meter and chords.
