This guide is designed to give up-and-coming producers a basic understanding of music theory, which will help translate musical ideas into professional-quality songs, tracks, beats, or whatever you want to call it. This guide contains detailed explanations of the theory behind songs by Ratatat, OutKast, Drake, Destiny's Child, Notorius B.I.G., MGMT, and many more. Music Theory for Producers contains almost everything you would learn in an intro music theory course at a university, without the tedious and overly complex aspects.
