    paper Mandy Prater - You're No Good For Me

    I recorded this single for Mandy shortly after finishing construction on my recording studio (Electric Platypus). If you are located near Austin, Texas (or are willing to travel) I have a cozy and comfortable, recording studio available for your tracking needs. It is properly acoustically isolated and treated and well equipped.

    paper Just Sosa - Looking For You (Single)

    This single started from an acoustic guitar demo which Justin recorded in his apartment. Justin had been an Americana artist for some time but wanted to break out of that mold a bit. We experimented a bit with different sounds and landed on using drum machine, heavily distorted bass guitar, and synths as a foundation for Justin’s guitar and vocals. This was a significant departure from the Justin’s previous sound and ended up being a very exciting and enjoyable project for the both of us.

    paper Alex Winters - Paper Bag (Single)

    Alex Winters is an award winning songwriter and performer from Austin, Texas. Alex was gracious enough to open up her vault of unrecorded demos for me to browse through and I selected this song to produce. We were shooting for a very aggressive and heavy sound while still keeping things within the realm of pop.
