Our Ethos

At Odd Harmonics, sound is a sandbox.

We cultivate musicianship by first prioritizing hands-on creative experimentation. No expertise required. Once we've developed an understanding of the building blocks of sound, that's when we dive into more traditional musical concepts.

Our intention is not to compete with conservatory-style teachings but rather complement them. By focusing on creating sonic worlds, we aim to unlock an underrated and highly accessible axis of expression.

About Our Founder

Nick Newhouse

Like many others, Nick's music education began with piano, guitar, and drum lessons. But his love for music making began in earnest at Brown University where he majored in both Computer Music and Computer Science. After Brown, he began his 10+ year music career by composing for ads at The Music Playground in Lower Manhattan. He's since released music with independent record labels such as Tiny Waves, Mad Zoo, New Dawn Collective, & Materia Music, and has DJed events around the country.

Nick and his wife have put down roots in Park Slope where they've very recently started a family together (their 5-month-old is already the proud owner of the Fisher-Price Mix and Learn DJ Table).

Testimonials

"Nick strikes that hard-to-find balance between teaching highly technical skills and inspiring creative thinking. By the end of our first lesson, we'd transformed my vocals into a voice-synth. Nick knew exactly how to connect my passion for singing with a specific technical production skill. It's this knack for uncovering his students' "why" that makes Nick’s style of teaching delightful and surprisingly personal. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to advance their music production skills in order to bring a creative vision to life."
- Walter
"Learning from Nick elevated my production skills immediately. He’s great at breaking down complex concepts and giving you simple tools. Not to mention never loses track of the joy and fun in the process. Any aspiring musician / producer would be lucky to have Nick helping them get to the next level."
- David
“Nick is incredibly passionate, goes in depth with just about every topic we cover, and persistently accommodates for any gaps in my knowledge. He always ensures that you are getting where you need to be YOUR way, in YOUR style. He is also super friendly and fun. My experience with Nick so far has been excellent!”
