If it needs to be funky, eclectic, or catchy I’m your guy.
Hello! My name is Micah and I am excited to get started making YOUR project sound amazing. I will record accompaniment tracks, full demos/recordings of written compositions, and/or any other keys needs you may have. Why pick me? If it needs to be funky or catchy I’m your guy. Currently I am recording local song writers compositions for website marketing but I would love to expand out to more widespread projects. I use Nord (stage 3 and C2) and Mainstage for sounds via Radial Key Largo interface (24-bit/96kHz audio). Experience with all genres (R&B, Jazz, Gospel, Americana, Country, Worship/B3, Classical Piano and Organ). I will provide up to 10 tracks per project, 3 revisions so we can ensure you love what you hear. I work an hourly rate of 30$ per hour, I will communicate to you what I estimate the duration of time I will need based on the project as well.
Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.
