i have 3 weeks till i finish my xourse at SAE. dont be closed minded and only look in the direction of Hiphop related work for when you finish a course at SAE. the course will gear you up more for recording bands of all generes, mixing, mastering, using pro tools, sound theory, live sound, etc etc.....everything you can think of. or you could do the electronic music produciton course which may be more your thing. but with the audio engineering course you get a fair bit of info on being a producer too. i reckon its a phat course.

do the Audio Engineering course that Equality did and not the Music Production one (it's too basic and where I did it in Sydney was poorly taight). The Audio Engineering course is the bomb though

good luck
