Tim Tim Tye is a client that I have worked with for the past 5 years, producing over an album’s worth of material. I just had to share one of our latest collaborations, “Retail at Christmas.” When Tim approached me with this song, I was excited to work on a more comical song for the holidays. A lot of us get overwhelmed this time of year and, let’s be honest, not everything is always fairy dust and smiles. “Retail at Christmas”… [Read More]

Mr. Stinky is reggae/rap artist based out of Kansas City, Missouri.  Born and raised in the States, you can still hear where Mr. Stinky’s roots come from as his father is from Saint Catherine, Jamaica. The tropical beats have island tones and that worldly cross over style that blends reggae sensibility with modern hip hop beats. StudioPros took his music to the next level by professionally mixing and mastering the tracks that he recorded and provided to our team. To… [Read More]

This month’s featured artist, Fern Walker Jones is a Texas based singer/songwriter. I especially enjoyed working with Fern on this song as it was tapping into the smooth jazz side of our team and the musicians had so much fun with the more intricate instrumentation on this song! To capture a smooth jazz feel, we started out the production with our saxophonist taking a lead solo to kick start the production and set the tone for the piece. What follows… [Read More]

I call him the “modern day Johnny Cash” as his mission for music and performing has a similar tone to Cash’s performances at Folsom Prison. Eddie has been using his original music to reach individuals who are in prison and preach his message to change lives for those behind bars. He frequents approximately 450 prisons in a year performing his music to inmates offering… [Read More]

Elois contacted StudioPros to help her take her lyric ideas and transform them into a professionally produced song from the ground up. Elois didn’t have any melodic ideas or a chord progression. The StudioPros talented session musicians took care of that for her. We went through our Step by Step Music production process by taking her lyrics and writing a custom chord… [Read More]
