Geno Wylin on SoundBetter

There couldn't be music without U or I, So let's make this happen!!

I love music, The best thing about music is that it literally makes the moment. If we were to try to watch our favorite film without music, i think we would lose interest very fast. To me, the music is the icing on the cake it helps to create the moment that was visualized for the project. Whether that be creepy trills or a lovely ballad for a love scene.

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

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: You make a ton of money right away, it's honestly a process. Even after work has been completed, it can take months if not years to receive pay. Not trying to scare you just being honest.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Any
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Whatever the moment requires, If there are missing lyrics i can fill in the gap. If the initial arrangement of the song needs restructuring i can also mend any mistakes that may present themselves. Truthfully Open Mindedness. There is never a final answer to anything musically related just a final stopping point.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: You can't force something that comes natural, So i do just that i let things flow. If you ever sit in the studio with me you would probably think I'm goofing off, which couldn't be further from the truth. I simply find inspiration in the moment and work from there. If i have lyrics from an artist to build a track around that makes the process that much easier i can hear exactly what emotions they are wanting to present.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I am a huge Fan of Mr.Kooman Beats, He's based out of LA. His laid back approach and chill vibe always help me find inspiration.
