Endorse Tyler Nigro

by Alejandro Perez - DJ WAP
Tyler is a an excellent collaborator and song do-er. Making music with Tyler is easy, and I would recommend for anyone to write a song with him. As a person who’s made music with Tyler in person and virtually, I can say with confidence that his musical ideas are strong and an overall agreeable person to work with. Tyler will make sure you do the song justice!

Interview with Tyler Nigro

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Chill R&B, Alternative Rock, Melodic Hip Hop. Things like Post Malone, Drake, The Weeknd, etc...
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Idea generation - starting from nothing and creating a vibe.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Melody ideas, backing tracks and mixing. But that is just the job requirement. I bring a unique vibe to any song that I work on, as well as dedication to making the song the best that it can be.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I will often send simple instrumentals to artists who will write and record a song over it, then I build out the production and mix the song after.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Helping artists get from an idea (or no idea!) to a finished song.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: One thing that has worked for me is to listen to the track extremely quietly in mono to get a birdseye view and a sense of the overall vibe of the song. It is a fantastic way to check if the changes I make are heading in the right direction.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a hybrid home studio in my basement with a control/mixing room and a live room - although most recordings are just done in the control room! I love to collect preamps - and have a solid list of sonic flavors to choose from. I am a long-time Logic Pro user and I have a solid selection of plugins for creative producing and mixing.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Kevin Parker (Tame Impala) is a huge inspiration to me, especially the work he did on Currents. Top-class songwriting, playing, and production done by one person. Daft Punk and their work Random Access Memories is a constant source of inspiration. I am a fan of Men I Trust, especially their bassist Jessy Caron for his incredibly smooth basslines. I look up to producer Dan Nigro for his journey going from the frontman of As Tall As Lions and for transitioning into a successful production career making Olivia Rodrigo's incredible sounding Sour album among others - and he also has my same legal last name Nigro, which is not very common!
