Galand on SoundBetter

Hope all is well! My name is Jose Jimenez (Producer name: Galand.) I have been producing music for over 6 years and have had label releases during that time. I specialize in EDM, Pop, Hip-Hop, and Reggaeton (Production & Mixing.) If it's a commercial release you're looking for, I'm your guy! Full Sail University Music Production B.S.

I've attached some of my work from a brand I created named, "AYON CODE," which I use to release my instrumentals!!!

FAQs:

Why pick me over the competition? > I can provide professional results at a fraction of the cost

What is typical turnaround time? > I usually take about a week on a track depending on number of stems

Do I retain the instrumental rights? > Yes, all my work is, "work-for-hire."

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Interview with Galand

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: I worked with a singer recently for a song I'm releasing, and I am extremely proud of the way I handled my communication with her so that we could get the vocal takes to the best level possible.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: A video game!

  5. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  6. A: Both, it all depends on the sound you're looking for, for the project at hand

  7. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  8. A: I will make something unique that sets you apart from the competition

  9. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  10. A: The fact that I get to create something from nothing.

  11. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  12. A: How much will this project be? > It depends on the complexity of the project, I'll give you a quote once I gather all the info I need.

  13. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  14. A: That I am lacking experience because I lack big Hollywood credits.

  15. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  16. A: What is your goal with this project?

  17. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  18. A: Always be as detailed as you can with what you want from a producer or mixing engineer. You're not hurting our feelings lol It helps the process so much!

  19. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  20. A: Gasoline, Power generator, MacBook, Headphones, PC

  21. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  22. A: Music Production. It's been 6 years

  23. Q: How would you describe your style?

  24. A: I tend to gravitate towards emotional chords and structure.

  25. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  26. A: Martin Garrix and Ava Max I think I would make a great collab with Martin given our interests in music and Ava Max would make for a great pop single.

  27. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  28. A: You can make some really interesting chord progressions by borrowing a chord from another key. You can keep that chord movement clean by using chords that are shared by both keys. For example: C > G > D > Amin (C Major is our key & D is the borrowed chord from G Major)

  30. A: Future Bass, Pop, Hip-Hop

  32. A: My strongest skill is my ability to keep the listener interested.

  33. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  34. A: On top of beat-making, I've also scored a few video games. That experience makes me add details to music that aren't typically seen in the commercial realm. It's that bit of uniqueness that could make heads turn.

  35. Q: What's your typical work process?

  36. A: I work from the ground up. I am very much about the foundations, so when I produce, I start with the drums. I tend to build bass, chords, and melody from that. Once I have the main idea, I start adding the little details that make beats stand out (FX, foley, etc.) As for mixing, I usually give the lead instrument priority (usually the vocals) and work from there.

  37. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
