About

Hi! I'm Matteo Mazzocchi, also known as MAZEYES. I'm a guitarist, finger drummer and live electronic music performer with over 10 years of experience. I specialize in teaching finger drumming, beatmaking and musical performance using controllers like Ableton Push, Maschine, Launchpad, MPC and isometric grid instruments.

My teaching method combines technique, musical awareness and creativity. I help students build coordination, rhythm, harmony and control, transforming a pad controller into a real expressive instrument — whether you're a beginner, a producer, or a traditional musician entering electronic music.

All lessons are customized to your level and musical goals, including topics like live performance setup, sampler use, sound design, and improvisation.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is practical, progressive, and personalized. I focus on developing real instrumental control over pad-based devices like Ableton Push, Launchpad, Maschine and MPC, helping students to connect musical expression with physical movement.

Lessons are tailored to each student's level, musical background and goals. I balance technique (finger control, rhythm, coordination) with creativity (groove building, sound design, improvisation) and music theory applied directly to practice.

I always aim to create an engaging, musical learning experience that builds independence, awareness and performance-ready skills. Whether you're a complete beginner, a producer, or a traditional musician, my approach adapts to your path.

Credentials & Affiliations

I’ve taught workshops and masterclasses for several music schools and institutions in Europe, including:

  • AMEBA – Associació de Música Electrònica de Barcelona

  • Academy 303, Barcelona

  • Wave Academy, Milan

  • Modern Music Institute (MMI), Italy

  • AKAI endorser (BCN)

These workshops focused on finger drumming, Ableton Push, rhythm theory, sound design and electronic live performance.
My teaching is rooted in a hybrid approach that connects digital tools with musical awareness and instrumental control.
