The Ultimate Resource for Metal Artists. Become the Total Package. Create Your Own Sound.
Our collective team is focused specifically on educating metal artists and producers. Where other platforms invite experts or influencers in their field to create courses, many times those courses don’t meet the criteria for learning because the expert is not necessarily a good educator.
On the contrary, Metal Mastermind® and Spectre Academy is giving you a wealth of knowledge with expert educators to provide you the best possible experience for you to not just know what the pros do, but why they work on a fundamental level that is easy to digest.
In addition to being a global network and being affiliated with educational institutions, we can provide educational discounts as a recognized entity for music and audio education.
While we support payment plans for individual purchases, we do not offer a payment plan for The Inner Circle membership.
Metal Mastermind® has affiliations with several universities:

This platform was made to give you world-class tools and knowledge and learn how to apply it to whatever your situation might be.

You could. However, what sets this course apart is that it’s a hyper-focused series of structured lessons. In other words, it’s designed to help the serious musician make progress, taking your skills, creativity and business to the next level without wasting time trying to piece information from multiple sources together.
Not only is it nearly impossible to truly filter everything that is said correctly on the internet, you also do yourself a disservice by not making an effort to acquire the information in a digestible format that doesn’t waste your time.

Amazing! That puts you at an advantage in many ways. However, the music industry changes pretty rapidly and while a university can help establish your foundation it’s always going to be on you to continuously learn what’s new and current.
In this instance, rather that pursue the legacy model of a university, Metal Mastermind® and Spectre Academy have opened a new chapter on learning at an affordable price. You’re getting university-level knowledge at an enormous discount in comparison and still have access to learning one-on-one with a dedicated instructor. Plus, they’re on the same path as you… just a little further down the road! This is the new way to learn, and you get to call the shots.
Take control of your future without the hassle of institutions that trap you with loans and financial aid for a degree. Becoming a part of The Inner Circle is how you take matters into your own hands.
Being successful in the music industry does not solely depend on your virtuosity as a musician. You must become more than just a musician. You need to be the total package!
As educators, we have seen students fall short by thinking too small. Talent can only get you so far. You will need to create an entire business surrounding your music. It is a natural progression to see a student start as the musician, become the producer, and then the entrepreneur.
Metal Mastermind® will be the resource that you can always come back to to learn how to expand and flourish. We will help you navigate through the fog.
