Hello fellow songwriter, 

If you have ever felt like there is a magic sauce that you are missing from your songwriting, you are absolutely correct.

It's not your equipment, it's not your mixing, and its not even your lyrics.

It's your melodies. Specifically the ones that should be living beneath your vocal.

And you didn't even notice they weren't there.

I love you. But your music will be forgotten unless you try something new. 

So, here's the big question...

Do you want to waste effort, emotion and precious time, messing around with production tutorials that teach you nothing about how to craft foundational melodies that humans actually resonate with...
 
...Or are you ready to start writing music that will never be forgotten?
 
If it's the latter, let's alter your musical brain forever...

 

If you don't know me, I'm Logan Grimé, Creator of ViB3 MACHiNE.

I've been writing songs and producing for over 25 years, and I was put on this planet to demystify and create the future of timeless tunes for music creators like YOU. 

I wasn't always this sure of myself. I remember years of aimlessly piecing songs together in my parents' garage with my bands during middle school and high school.

Just trying to make something awesome.

It was always hit or miss, but I've learned a ton since then, and I want to share the magic with you.

It took decades without guidance...

I've always known that my mission is to uncover the magic of songwriting and keep the creative inspiration alive—in myself and in others.

Whether through producing, songwriting, performing live, or helping others, I knew my life was dedicated to my love of music.

I played in bands with my friends, honed my production skills using my dad's 80's equipment from our garage, performed live, and even got a Bachelors Degree in Audio Engineering.

Post-graduation, I freelanced in video production, met my now wife, and at the same moment, my self-produced band took off.

We got a manager, booking agent, sold out our first show, got a record deal, publishing deal, and toured the nation, and even played one of the biggest stages at the largest music festival in San Francisco (Outside Lands) and racked up millions of streams.

But then we hit a wall.

 

In the middle of touring our manager Steve passed away from Leukemia.

And still we needed to deliver music to the label. 

Our love of writing and producing songs became a grueling chase for 'hit' tracks, as dictated by our label.

We wrote and produced MULTIPLE albums, only to hear they wouldn't be released because they lacked a 'hit.'

Our passion for music became stressful, and our creativity held hostage by someone else's idea of success.

Not only was the label not into the songs, I could tell that friends were just not resonating with the music we were creating as much either. 

We wanted to produce songs that would connect with other people and inspire us to continue, not get stifled by walls. 

It took forever to craft a record, and often, we were just shooting in the dark, hoping for that magical hit.

We'd sometimes sink hours into the studio or a house we would rent out for a week, forcing an idea that wasn't working, only to scrap what we had written.

At times, we'd push a song as far as we could even if we weren't passionate about it.

I wasn't collaborating with other artists; I was all-in on the band.

Meanwhile, I noticed others in our circle branching out—writing and producing for other artists.

It turns out, tons of artists make a living by producing OTHER people's songs, often at the expense of their own creative fulfillment.

It felt like being back in college, doing projects out of obligation rather than inspiration.

I knew there had to be a way better way...

In early 2019, I started exploring fresh ways to keep my inspiration up, improve my songwriting and production skills.

My aim? To craft songs as unforgettable as hit records and the never-released gems my dad composed.

I grew up on my dad's '80s music, captivated by melodies that have lived in my awareness for decades even without listening to the recordings of them.

I wanted to create records with that same lasting impact but didn't want to leave it to chance.

I was on a mission to crack the damn code.

Fast forward to today, and my band has well over 10 million streams, over $100,000 in syncs and ViB3 MACHiNE now has over 200,000 subscribers across platforms 

And my understanding has continued to expand - it’s how you hear the melodies in the tunes that humanity loves, not your ability to play an instrument, your DAW or how much music theory you understand.
It took 2 lifetimes to uncover it...
It nearly killed me, but I FOUND IT...

The Underlick

The melody that lives UNDER the vocal.

The first 2 seconds when a song comes on at the concert and EVERYBODY starts screaming before the singer even starts singing.

THAT is the Underlick!

The moment you walk into a karaoke bar and recognize the music, regardless if the microphone is plugged in.

THAT is the Underlick!

I used this to grow my band's audience, got songs synced for Taco Bell Commercials, landed syncs in National TV shows, but I had left it all to chance.

I just knew those productions were stronger and more inspired.

But didn't know why, or how to recreate it on demand. 

 You might be thinking to yourself, "Logan, I have lots of great loops to sing on!" But let's be real for a sec, not all loops are created equal. You can get millions of loops for a penny on a sample website, but some are worth millions of dollars.

Why is that? 

Library loops are generic. They are the leftovers that didn't make the actual record.

Or as my friends and I say, they sound "STOCK".

They don't have the SAUCE and the SAUCE is YOU. Once you can hear it. You can create it. 

You can keep writing the way you've been doing it, using the same methods (or lack there of) and you can't be blamed for that because nobody has shown you a different way.

But there is one, and it works, and it is glorious.

And I'm here to share it...

And so I created...

Donut: 1 Billion Streams + on Spotify

"Logan aka the ViB3 MACHiNE aka Wolverine is my go-to-guy. His class is packed with valuable (kinda no brainer) information, and he genuinely wants you to succeed. He enjoys helping, and his advice really pays off. It’s definitely a smart investment."

Alex Coles: 137,000 Monthly Listeners on Spotify

"This masterclass opened my eyes to all sorts of unique, modern and efficient ways of writing music. It took my melody sensibilities to new heights and gave me the ability to write synth and guitar lines that co- exist perfectly with my vocal melodies. I would highly recommend!!

Everything from the quality of video to the detail and articulation of how the Underlick is mapped out and created. Logan is a one of a kind."

Kid Travis: 1 Million Monthly Listeners on Spotify

"Logan really has a simple yet interesting way of approaching songs. In this masterclass he really challenges you to think outside of what you think you know. I’m in the business of making the best songs I can possibly make, so this ultimately helped a ton."

More Affordable than the next plug-in you might buy 

God what I would have done for this course 10 years ago! The value of what’s taught inside Underlick Academy could easily rival that of fancy music schools or production courses online worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. But do not fear! It won't break the bank. 

You could go route of:

  • spending an insane amount of time writing more songs with zero helpful guidance 
  • watching courses online from some of the biggest songwriters in the world who won't share how to do this
  • buy a bunch of gear, software, and instruments that have nothing to do with writing stronger compositions

I know so, because I have done it all! 

Instead, you can join Underlick Academy and be miles ahead of anyone else that is just guessing and hoping for some lottery ticket. Don't be like that. I know people that just spin their wheels year after year doing the same stuff that does not work and I can hear it in two seconds when they send me a song. It's heart breaking but this does not need to be you. 

You're not looking at a $3,000 price tag (my normal day rate), and you're not even looking at $500 or $300...

You can get instant access to the entire Underlick Academy program for just one payment of $197

Aden says:

"A masterclass that is ahead of the class. I've gone through many music courses and master classes that were painful and honestly boring. No joke this was a breeze! It was easy to understand and super entertaining got a ton of useful tips and ways to make music without having to be bogged down with theory and technical wizardry and get down to being creative and fully expressing myself through music! Thanks ViB3 MACHiNE"

Gérôme says:

"What I REALLY like about it, is that it feels so casual to learn from you. You have a very easy and positive way of getting the learning content across, almost as if a friend is teaching me. And it seems super authentic, especially when you move the blocks around on the piano roll and just go try-and-error for a little bit."

Bryan says:

"I learned more in 5-6 minutes then I have taking piano classes, watching endless YouTube videos etc. As a neuro-divergent person it was really helpful how you talked about shapes over scales, & automating your process by removing steps."

Mcklay says:

I've been making music for 8ish years and don't have any traditional training, all my sounds are made by feel. But I came across this whole concept of an Underlick and I was OBSESSED, a secret code that can turn a song that only I see the potential into something that everyone sees as potential! Even from the introduction alone, it gives me confidence and creative space to recognize and freestyle just some demos. Especially on pre existing songs, gives me the muscle I need to implement it in my sounds. Thank you ViB3, the value given is priceless!

 Songwriters and producers of all levels get more than their $$ worth in the course and the skills they walk away with are priceless.

And to really go all out to give you the resources to master the Underlick...
