We Call Today Our Christmas

Mark Timmerman is a client I have had the pleasure of working with for the past. In fact, I helped him produce this very same Christmas song 1 years ago! When we originally approached the production of his original Christmas song “We Call Today Our Christmas,” we had approached it as a female lead version with different lyrics. After sitting on the song for a year and deciding what he wanted to change the 2nd time around, we revised the production with more… [Read More]

Featured Artist: Peter Fegredo

Peter Fegredo is a UK based songwriter whom I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating on 4 full productions within the past 4 years. Each song having it’s own unique style and direction. This latest project, Peter approached me and asked if my team was up to the challenge of creating a reggaeton/pop inspired track infusing elements of hip hop programming and Latin instrumentation. Something commercial and with a beat and production that makes you want to move. Of course, my answer is… [Read More]

Featured Artist: John Jones

John Jones is a songwriter that lives down under in Australia. I had the pleasure of meeting John after he contacted us regarding some production on kids songs that he has written. He had a great demo with excellent musical ideas on it so it was a breeze to get a direction for the song right off the bat. After going through some production ideas with him we got started on what I hope is the first of many productions that we… [Read More]

Live vs. Sampled Instruments On Your Recording

Hi, I’m Ethan Rose. As some of you may already know, I am one of the producers here at the studio. When I’m not collaborating with clients through StudioPros, I spend a lot of my time focusing on my own personal music projects. I am currently a member of a duo called We The Dreamers, signed to Spectra Records, but I also like to write and record songs independently, using StudioPros to rid the limitations I face as a self-sufficient artist. To give… [Read More]

Featured Artist: Donna Lynch

This month’s featured artist, Donna Lynch, came to me with a lyric sheet and one goal — to create a cool, laid back contemporary pop song with top 40 potential. After a few long phone calls, we came up with a game plan to fully produce her song, “What’s Inside.” The StudioPros production team created the chord progression from scratch and arranged the song using multiple keyboard layers, synth bass, a single guitar track, and Evan on vocals. The result is… [Read More]

Featured Artist: Mark Timmerman

As we are approaching the holiday season, we wanted to get you ready for Christmas with a recent song we’ve produced! (I know, I know… Christmas songs already?) This weeks featured artist, Mark Timmerman, isn’t your every day songwriter. He leads a very busy day to day life working with the California Legislature. The first time I spoke with Mark, he was a bit hesitant to of send his songs online to get professionally recorded with our team. After a… [Read More]

Featured Artist: Ruth Buettner

Ruth contacted me about producing one of her songs as sort of a vibey electro-pop reggae type track for Halloween.  We talked about many different ways to approach this song, and after exploring some various production directions, a SIA type of production seemed the most suitable for the direction.  There was a fine line to keep this song tasteful on a production standpoint and I really commend our musicians for creating a song that has a great feel and vibe. … [Read More]

Featured Artist: Glenn Hammerstad

This month’s featured artist, Glenn Hammerstad is a Norwegian based songwriter that I have been collaborating with for the past 3 years. Collaborating overseas with artists such as Glenn always amazes me. Aw, the wonders of the internet and technology! Glenn has gone through the StudioPros production process on 12 projects. The first 8 were a more pop/adult contemporary style production and the past 4 have been remixes of those songs into a more modern EDM style. It’s been really fun taking the more traditional… [Read More]

Featured Artist: Frank Lupo

Frank Lupo is a New Jersey based songwriter that I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with on for 4 productions. Each song unique and well written, Frank delivers catchy melodies and progressions that echo in my mind after I leave the studio. Having melodies that are memorable are a must for a successful production. Since we are close to Valentine’s Day and love is in the air, I thought I’d share one of Lupo’s latest productions which is a beautiful… [Read More]
