This particular project “To Gaia’s Freedom” was a project we helped finalize by taking her raw stems and completing the final touch of mixing and mastering with our StudioPros engineer. When Angie contacted me a few weeks ago, I knew that the material she would be sending… [Read More]

I want to challenge you this month to dedicate some time to your music. This month’s featured artist, Gordon Mayer,… [Read More]

I’m excited to share her new tune, “Shine”, which has evolved immensely from its demo stage to final master. This is an incredible example of how creative arrangement and… [Read More]

To give… [Read More]
