Featured Artist: Conor Matthews

Tuesday, May 14th, 2013

We have just had the pleasure of completing an EP for a talented young songwriter with a lot of promise in his future. Still a high school student, Conor Matthews writes with a maturity way beyond his age. You can hear his influences of Jason Mraz, John Mayer and Rascal Flatts in his carefree style and sincere lyrics. It’s no wonder since he’s been writing, singing, playing piano and guitar from the young age of 9 years old.

Recording Your Productions Step By Step

Being an active high school student, Conor didn’t have the time to spend long hours in the studio. After searching online and speaking with our head producer, Kati O’Toole, Conor found that Studio Pros had everything he needed. Working online was simple for Conor. “I loved the step-by-step approach to recording so that I could determine if each instrument matched both the notes and the feel I had in mind. Working online made the whole thing really easy for me”, he says. “It allowed me to give my input and reactions at a time that was good for me.”

We started with a simple guitar/vocal demo of Conor playing his song, and then went more deeply into the production process layering each instrument step by step. Our guitarist laid down a basic sketch of his song to a click track which laid down the solid foundation track for the rest of the musicians to build off of. We worked with Conor to tweak the previews until he was pleased with the first sketch layer. Next, we moved on to live drums, and after his suggestions and our changes, we moved on to bass, guitars, keyboards, vocal tuning, backing vocals and finally mixing & mastering. He was involved every step of the way and provided guidance and feedback throughout the process so we were sure we were producing in the direction he envisioned.

Recording Your EP Online

Besides the ease of working online, the help of the producers and the access to our staff of professional Los Angeles based studio musicians was really beneficial to Conor. “They had fantastic musicians available for every instrument and this was especially helpful when I was looking for a certain sound but didn’t know how to play that instrument”. A great moment in production was when we were working on backing vocals for “Searchin’ For You”, a light hearted pop tune. Something was missing. Conor suggested a “call and response” section at the end, but didn’t know exactly what he wanted. With the help of the producers and the vocalist, we all developed a really wonderful backing vocal that added layering and depth to build the dynamics of the music.

What’s next for Conor?

Using the songs he recorded with Studio Pros, Conor has put together a portfolio and is now applying to music colleges.  He is looking forward to studying various aspects of the music industry, and continuing to grow as a songwriter.

Until then, Conor is working to finish up high school and playing gigs around town to promote his songs, all which are available on itunes.

We are always so inspired to work with such fresh talent as Conor and how he’s just begun his career in songwriting. I can see a promising future ahead for this talented artist!

Featured Artist: David Alter

Finding the right team of session musicians for your project

David Alter has been one of the more intriguing clients of mine. With a total of 29 songs he’s collaborated on with Studio Pros, he’s become very comfortable with the process of recording online and has refined his own method that works well for him. I first was introduced to David when he came to us with demos for a 21 song rock opera.  He showed me some of the songs, and I was instantly hooked. Even his rough sketches and vocal ideas had a very distinct sound and quirk that drew me to each song. It was through this project that I really got a feel for the characters who might eventually adapt this on stage.

Working with professional musicians from the comfort of your own home

David works as a physician just outside of Toronto, Ontario. To be specific, he is a cardiologist, a researcher, Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto AND an aspiring composer/songwriter who runs an organization that builds healthy communities through music. http://www.vigourprojects.com/

David is a busy guy, to say the least- so it was helpful for him to find a studio like Studio Pros who could work on his 13 songs at once through various phases and still be in touch. This way, he was able to be heavily involved in every musical decision on his own time, so we worked around his schedule.

“The StudioPros process works extremely well for me. I love the process of online recording. For me, the secret to satisfaction with on-line recording is three-fold: (a) having a vision, (b) having the self-confidence to creatively navigate the vision, and (c) some patience and perseverance.” Working with Alter was a delight because he had such a clear vision. He knew where he wanted the songs to go and getting there was just a matter of communication and musical building blocks.

Recording your songs with Studio Pros

In David’s song “Holy Moses,” we recorded the drums, bass, guitars, piano and organs to give it the professional touch of seasoned session players. You can just feel this song being the emotional high point of a stage production. We are very excited to see his production and see how the wonderful music we collaborated on fits into the story.

Custom instrumentation with Studio Pros

The unique aspect about this project was that David came to us with tracks to build off of. He already had vocals and scratch guitars recorded to a click track  so we could hear the songs, but he would provide references for the services he ordered like drums, upright bass, mandolin, guitars and accordion and building his songs became somewhat like a puzzle.

“I love the process of building up a song one bit at a time….It’s like painting a canvas! The great thing about StudioPros is that they are equally adept at allowing you to maintain full control, or handing off control to them,” says Alter. ”Either way, I am always impressed (and in many cases, overwhelmed) with the production quality and musicianship of StudioPros- – All of the players are great. The drums are top-notch!, The guitar players rock! The keyboard and string players are fantastic and the bass player can give me both “groove” or “melodic-McCartney-esq” lines.”

David plans to release the songs we worked on with him in a double album CD, as the songs will eventually turn into a stage play which he is currently in the playwright process of. There is also talk of adapting this into a film eventually, the possibilities are endless! We love David’s vision and perseverance in this career as a musician. It’s something to aspire to.

Featured Artist: Charlie Barclay

Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013

Producing your EP with StudioPros production team.

Charlie Barclay is an upcoming Dallas, TX based alternative/pop singer/songwriter who we’ve just had the honor of producing.  Barclay draws inspiration from current artists such as John Mayer, Ben Rector and Steve Moakler as well as classic artists such as Led Zeppelin, Jim Croce, and Jackson Browne. His songs have infectious melodies and lyrics that stay with you far beyond your first listen of the song. Charlie has used Studio Pros to release his first single off his debut EP “Shallow Hearts” as well as his second EP “The Love You Give” which we have just wrapped up production on. This is a great example of how artists can access professional musicians as independent musicians and focus on their talent as songwriters and let the pros do the rest.

Taking your songs from basic demos to broadcast quality recordings.

Charlie originally found Studio Pros while doing a google search looking for a studio drummer.  He says of that experience, “It didn’t take me long to realize I was going about the recording process all wrong and StudioPros was my answer to getting a professional sound at an affordable price.” A common problem that our clients face is finding the right team to help them realize the productions from demo form to radio ready, broadcast quality finished full band productions. In the case of Charlie, his talents lie in his songwriting and singing. He can get a basic guitar/vocal demo down, but organizing the production of an EP that will consist of a full band can be overwhelming without outside help.

When asked about his experience working with Studio Pros, Charlie responds, “It was quick and easy. I will continue to work with StudioPros for all of my future projects. To start, the production is incredible. Kati knew exactly what my songs should sound like even when I didn’t have the words to express my vision. Then, the guitarist brought my songs to life with breathtaking riffs and the other instruments each added their own dynamic. I can’t say enough good things about StudioPros. It’s hard not to be skeptical of an online service creating your songs without you in the room, but they really listen to your vision and capture it perfectly. I’ve produced five songs through StudioPros and they are all exceptional. My single “Shallow Hearts” charted at #43 on the iTunes singer/songwriter charts and I have similar hopes for my EP release “The Love You Give” which will be digitally released on iTunes April 26th.”

Check out Charlie Barclay’s “The Love You Give” EP

Now that Charlie has completed the hardest steps of writing, producing, then organizing his digital release to iTunes for late April; his next step is to spread the word. Some think that the work is done once the songs have been finally mastered, but that’s not the case. An equal amount of promotion, performance and publicity has to come into the process if you want to create a fan base and have people listen to your release. “I work every day to spread my music to new ears. My plan is to make a living playing music. Whether that means living in a van eating peanut butter sandwiches for 300 days of the year or signed to a major label, I don’t care. Whatever it takes as long as I’m doing what I love.”

We wish you the best of luck with promoting your EP Charlie, and are honored to have produced The Love You Give EP!

Featured Artist: Bill Simon

Studio Pros helps songwriters develop their sound.

I first met Bill Simon in May of 2012. He was contacting me about general information on collaborating with Studio Pros and exactly how it works. Little did I know at the time, that we would continue a very strong production collaboration together throughout the year and he would prove to be the prolific songwriter that he is!

Now with 23 full music productions complete with the Studio Pros team, Bill has proven to be a talent with lyrics, formulating strong song ideas, and an upcoming songwriter to keep an eye on.

Collaborating with Studio Pros vs. your local studio.

“When I made the decision to record some songs, I had no idea what to look for or where to begin. So I went online. Initially, I looked at several local studios and then I came across Studio Pros. What was most intriguing was the idea that I didn’t have to be in a studio as I have a full time job and a fairly active schedule outside of work. I decided at that point that I would have two songs produced by a local recording studio and also by Studio Pros and then compare the two.

While both were enjoyable experiences, it was very evident that Studio Pros had access to a wider variety of musicians and vocalists, as well as a process that was extremely easy to work with given my weekly schedule. Another big plus was the fact that I had never done this before and wasn’t familiar with the recording industry or production and was able to get incredible help and guidance from producer Kati O’Toole. Every song has come out the way I wanted even though in many cases I wasn’t sure of the direction we would go in terms of production. She has a great knack of understanding your sound and style and then building the song around that,” Simon says.

Check out some of Bill Simon’s Productions:

It’s Gonna Be Different:

Forget You:

Hey Bartender:

Bill comes to us with lyrics, a rough guitar/vocal demo and song ideas. Together we’ve formulated the sound that he’s going for on a song by song basis, recording the instrumentation step by step so he can be involved 100% in the production process. Our production team has come to know his taste in music, which include reference artists like Tom Petty, Lucinda Williams and more recent artists  Dawes and Stephen Kellogg. We have helped him develop his own personal style using his influences and helped him choose the instrumentation to achieve that sound in his recordings.

Simon has done a combination of using his own vocals on the majority of productions, as well as hired Studio Pros session vocalists to do session versions of the songs so he has a strong recording to pitch for publishing opportunities. “I began writing songs in 2012, so I had very little knowledge or understanding of what it took to take a song from beginning to end. Studio Pros has taken the time to help me understand how to produce and really get the most out of a song. They help to keep each song original and unique by adding different instruments that I never would have thought of.”

Simon- a sucessful business man, family man (with a great family including 3 kids), and active sportsman, proves you can balance your life with your every day commitments and still have time to make music. We are so glad you found us Bill, and look forward to many more collaborations in the near future!

Featured Artist: Sophie Morgan

Friday, January 4th, 2013

Pop-country production with Studio Pros.

Meet Sophie Morgan. She is a young UK based singer songwriter with talent well beyond her late teen years. With influences ranging from Frank Sinatra to My Chemical Romance, she is a rising star to watch. Sophie contacted Studio Pros with an interest to record one of her more country/folk influenced songs and the results were outstanding.

We took Sophie’s original piano vocal demo and transformed it into a pop-country hit. Incorporating her influences of pop country artists Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum, the Studio Pros team produced Sophie’s original song through our step by step recording process.

We chose the perfect combination of country instrumentation including: country guitars, country fiddle, drums, bass, pedal steel, vocal tuning and backing vocals to support Sophie’s vocals.

Check out Sophie’s recording of Just The Way It Goes:

Before (Just The Way It Goes- Sophie Piano/Vocal Demo)

After (Just The Way It Goes- Studio Pros Production)

“Things are really starting to happen for me now with the help of some very talented musicians, including the Studio Pros team. I found Studio Pros in an advertisement online when I was recruiting musicians for my band. It has been truly incredible. I was concerned that it would be too clinical and the song may lose the atmosphere that you get from been actually in the studio with the musicians.  In reality it feels like I am actually in the studio as I got to input at every stage.”

What’s next for Sophie?

“This recording will become part of my portfolio when we start to approach the record labels next summer. I leave school next year and I have been building a body of work, assembling my band, gigging and establishing my demographics with a strong on line fan base. I want to be in the strongest possible position when I start to chase a major record deal.”

We wish Sophie the best and look forward to seeing her grow as a songwriter and performing artist! To read more about Sophie, check her out at www.sophiemorganmusic.com

Featured Artist: Silver Saddih

Making Music Across Continents With Studio Pros.

Collaborating with Studio Pros mixing and mastering engineer all the way from Nigeria, Silver Saddih proves you don’t have to be in the same country, even continent to make music together.  I was blown away the  first time I heard Silver’s vocals when listening to the mix preview of “I Be Boss”.   I shared it immediately with my Studio Pros co-producer Keeley Bumford.  We both were dancing in our seats listening to this track.

Silver hails from Kaduna state, Nigeria (West Africa) and currently lives in Lagos and Abuja.  His crystal clear R&B vocal tone has undertones of his native African roots which really makes his sound unique.  You can hear his world influences coming through in his vocal performances, combined with contemporary pop and R&B/hip hop influences.  It amazes me how we can collaborate with talent like this instantly between Los Angeles and Nigeria – thanks to the internet.

Silver talks about his life as an artist in Nigeria and what inspires him, “Well, life itself unfolding is an inspiration. I view music as being able to perceive and interpret everyday experiences. For me, it’s ultimately about expression.  Nigeria is a very vibrant country. And this energy reflects in every aspect of it’s social life. It’s in my beats, my melodies and lyrics. The average Nigerian is a happy person and knows how to have a good time. This has influenced the overall feel of my production as well as the instrumentation; with traditional percussion fused into my ‘Afro-pop’ jams.”

Listen to Silver’s final mix and master done by Studio Pros:

Finding The Right Fit For Your Post Production Needs:

Silver had produced his songs in Nigeria with local musicians and producers.  He was looking for the contemporary sound of American producers and engineers for his final mixing and mastering.  When looking into solutions for the perfect fit for the final touches, Silver chose Studio Pros.  “My music partner had explored the Internet for professional music services that are efficient and affordable.  He discovered a number of prospects but thought Studio Pros was offering something worth a try.  We approached the collaboration with Studio Pros as an experiment. We sampled a number of songs and profiles on the website and wondered how the kind of music we were producing would be interpreted by these professionals.   Studio Pros provides professional music services that are worth every cent. The mixing and mastering of ‘I Be Boss’ was the first job and we were very impressed by the overall quality of the service – it got accepted without a single correction.”

How It Works:

Silver and his music partners were able to order the mix online with Studio Pros’ convenient online mix order form.  They selected the style, services needed and were able to specify specific mix notes directly to our Grammy Nominated engineer.  After the order was placed, they were able to upload their final wav files of their project directly to their order through the Studio Pros’ server and they are instantly transferred to our engineer in the amount of time it takes the upload to complete.  Forget snail mail!  Within 72 hours, our engineer had a final mix/master and tuned preview for Silver awaiting him in his account.

Silver has continued with two more additional projects from his album and we are helping him get his songs Broadcast Quality for promotional purposes and radio airplay.  So I asked him, what’s next? – “We are currently working on a promotional album of these tracks. The target is to create beautiful music that can be enjoyed just about anywhere in the world.  As an artist, I would like to share my gift with as many people as possible. I would equally like to perform for as long as possible growing through every stage of the journey.”  You may wonder the same thing I do, WHAT IS THE RECORDING INDUSTRY LIKE IN NIGERIA? Silver states, “The Music Industry in Nigeria has come a long way. Time and again, a good number of artists have and continue to make their mark across Africa and indeed the world. The Industry is sophisticated with a lot of talent, some of the best recording studios in Africa and very good prospects for commercial success. In the last five years, there have been several collaborations between Nigerian Artists and popular acts across the pacific: the likes of Rick Ross, Kanye West and Snoop Dogg.”

I can only say good things about Silver and his voice.  While I’ll keep the other two tracks a secret for now, I will tell you one thing, THIS GUY IS GOOD!  I am looking forward to continuing a long term working relationship with Silver as an artist as we continue to help him with the final touches on his album.

Featured Artist: Stephen McElligott

Wednesday, September 21st, 2011

How to avoid the pitfalls of your previous studio experiences—and vastly improve your chances to get your song published with major A&R representatives.

Stephen McElligott reminisces about a recording he made of one of his songs in a local studio. “I wasn’t happy with that production, really,” he recalls. “I thought, ‘Oh gosh, how am I gonna save this?’ I basically turned around and found Studio Pros and thought, ‘Brilliant, they’re my savior.’”

McElligott has been playing music since he was seven years old. He wrote his first song at 16 and soon began playing in clubs and venues around Ireland and Scotland. His music is influenced by music that spans many decades, from The Beatles to Glen Hansard. But after years of writing and performing, McElligott still hadn’t achieved a major goal: recording a professional sounding, radio-quality version of his songs. “I’ve worked with musicians before, and it’s like wearing a blindfold when you take them into the studio because you’ve gotta pay them, and you don’t know how good they are, you haven’t really heard their stuff,” he explains.

Recording A Song Professionally Without Breaking The Bank

The Irish guitarist/singer/songwriter had been in need of a polished, professional recording solution that wouldn’t break the bank. Plus, he was hoping to have better luck submitting his music to TAXI to get song placements and licensing opportunities. He stumbled upon Studio Pros while searching online for recording studios and decided to learn more. “I clicked on it and thought, this is cool, and it’s affordable,” he says. “I had a listen to some samples and thought it was brilliant. I really needed this with the budget I’m on. I would spend 250 Euros on a musician for a day in the studio, whereas Studio Pros is only $150. I thought it was fantastic—it’s not often that you get to work with really good professional musicians, you know?”

Listen to Stephen’s track “She Blew Me Away,” produced by Studio Pros:

“With Studio Pros, they give you a listen to the musicians’ capabilities, what they’re able to do, and the versatility that the musicians there have. And that really was the winner for me. It was the overall sound even more than the price.” (more…)

Featured Artist: Tony Perre

Tuesday, September 6th, 2011

Thinking his music career was over, Arizona-based artist Tony Perre used Studio Pros to get back in the game.

“My experience with Studio Pros has allowed me to dream a little bit more about what I can actually accomplish as a musician,” says Tony Perre. “Studio Pros has allowed me to take all of my musical ideas and songs and get them out there. To me, having a very simple process with great musicians who basically do exactly as I ask them to do, with their quality of musicianship, it’s just such a winning formula to me that I can actually dream again from a musical standpoint.”

Perre had all but given up on music after a wakeboarding accident left him with limited mobility in his left arm, effectively minimizing his ability to play guitar. But after adjusting his playing style by relying on the use of a capo, he got the chance to play live music again with some friends in a local band. Knowing he could play again—and realizing he still had good ideas for songs and lyrics—Perre credits Studio Pros with providing the tools he needed to get back to making the music he loved so much. “I found out really quickly how badly I missed playing out, and I found out I could still play,” he explains. “If I could sum everything up in one sentence, it would be that there’s no expiration date for musical and lyrical inspiration.”

Studio Pros first came into the picture when Perre took the advice of a friend who knew he was looking to record an album. “He recommended that I check out the Studio Pros online method of getting my record produced,” he remembers. “When I went on the website and I saw all that Studio Pros had to offer, I was absolutely blown away. I thought I’d give it a try with one of my nine songs, and I quickly realized during my first song that this is no joke, this is world class.”

Perre soon realized that Studio Pros was the best possible route to take for his music. “I honestly felt that, as a business guy, I don’t have a heck of a lot of time to do what I used to do: cross my fingers and hope that all my band members would have some time to spend in the studio. It was just a really long, very difficult process to get everyone together at one time.” He began comparing his Studio Pros experience to past attempts in recording studios and the choice became clear. “I checked out some local studios here in [Arizona] and it just became very apparent that, because I work a day job, it would be impossible to get something together in a short period of time with the quality of musicians that Studio Pros has.”

Featured Artist: English Earl

Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

Using Studio Pros to breathe new life into some old songs, English Earl successfully proved to himself that he had what it takes to make great music.

English Earl suspected he had some good songs on his hands, but he knew his productions just weren’t going to cut it against the high-quality recordings of today’s music industry. “I kind of wanted to resurrect my old pop songs and write a few new ones, I thought it would be a great opportunity to prove to myself that some of my pop music wasn’t so bad,” Earl says with a laugh. This “resurrection” refers to the fact that he has been writing pop music since he was a 15-year-old in a garage band, but formally Earl was classically trained on piano and violin. After getting degrees in music theory and composition from the Conservatory of Music in Kansas City, he had established his classical chops. But Earl wanted to see how his pop and rock writing had evolved.

In order to really see what he could do, Earl knew he had to graduate from his local Charleston, South Carolina music scene; he needed to hire some real professionals. In the process of working with Studio Pros, he realized that their world-class session musicians weren’t just good for laying down polished sounding tracks… They could also give him valuable input and musical insight to improve the production of his songs.

“I think the main reason I chose Studio Pros was because I knew they had some very good musicians and vocalists there,” Earl explains. “I knew that the people I’ve worked with before in the studio who were just local musicians, they were there to make a living but were not really there to put too much into a song or its production. I felt that the quality of the studio musicians at Studio Pros might be higher.”

Logistics also played a part in Earl’s decision. Most of the musicians he knew were in Virginia (where he used to live), making the price of recording a little too steep. “Living in Charleston made it impossible for me to go back and forth to record there, so I would have to drop all those musicians and start all over again, anyway,” he says. “And my schedule’s so busy, I couldn’t go in and teach everyone a song. Instead I could start recording with Studio Pros and not actually have to be in a studio.” Earl calculated the costs of recording an album the traditional way and decided Studio Pros was the way to go. “It was way too expensive for me to continue [the old way]. By the time you pay for studio costs, the musicians, the time you spent traveling, the CDs themselves and the artwork and everything, I felt like I was spending a lot more money than I needed to.”

Featured Artist: Gary Henson

Thursday, May 19th, 2011

Native Californian and singer-songwriter Gary Henson’s music brings together a melting pot of varied rhythms and authentic experiences. Raised in L.A., Gary now lives in the foothills of the Sierras in Northern California, about 45 minutes northeast of Sacramento. A busy keyboardist, guitarist and vocalist, we recently caught up with him to talk about producing his latest song “Me And You” at Studio Pros.

Check out Gary’s Song “Me And You”:

Gary’s musical influences stem primarily from his father. “My dad was very influential on me growing up and is probably responsible for my musical influences today. He was always blasting The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Rolling Stones, etc. He had an affinity for the great 60′s groups and had amassed quite an impressive record collection from which to draw and share. I believe that the constant cascade of these sing-along melodies and driving guitar licks planted seeds of inspiration in me that came to bloom after high school.”

Gary’s songwriting process usually begins with a tape recorder running and him playing either a piano or guitar. From there he plays with various chord structures and captures whatever melody and lyrics emerge with unconscious disregard for whatever finds its way to tape.  After a writing session he likes to play back what he’s done and take note of all the parts that he likes–chords, melody, verse, etc., and refine it from there.

“Me and You” is a great example of that process. “This song was an unconscious outpouring of melody and verse that began on piano with the tape recorder running,” he said.

Gary completed his first album at a Los Angeles recording studio with session musicians, so he understands the value, technical chops and creativity that they can bring to a song. While Gary knew that his next project would require the same process, he didn’t have the time or resources to make another trip to L.A. to line everything up. And that’s when he decided to try Studio Pros.

“I found Studio Pros on the internet, checked them out, and decided to give the team there a shot. I was very pleased with the results and have been using them ever since. I like their quick turnaround and the parts that they come up with. I also like the fact that I can ask Kati (StudioPros Head of Production) for production ideas/opinions when I’m not exactly clear on direction.”

Working remotely with the Studio Pros team, Gary had just enough interaction to get the results he was looking for while giving the team the space to make the artistic decisions necessary to enhance the song. “When all was said and done, I think I suggested four or five modifications–not many when you consider all the parts that were played.”

“Studio Pros is the ideal outfit to help a singer-songwriter like me–with lots of songs/ideas and little time–bring his passion to life in a professional way with minimal disruption to my schedule. It’s also a great place to add that drum track, or guitar solo that might not be possible otherwise. I’ll definitely be using them again.”
