Madman on SoundBetter

🎧 Versatile Producer, Engineer & Artist behind Grammy-level sessions—trusted by legends like Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins & Rico Love, and championed by rising indie stars.

I’m a New Jersey-based producer, writer, engineer, and artist with a passion for shaping powerful, genre-blending sound. I’ve worked alongside Grammy-winning talent and music legends, building a skillset that blends high-level studio precision with raw creative energy. Whether you need a full track, polished mix, or something more personal—I bring a deep understanding of both the technical and emotional sides of music.

In addition to production and engineering, I offer featured rap verses, melodic topline writing, and layered background vocals that enhance any track with texture and personality. My vocal delivery is versatile—whether you’re looking for smooth and soulful, hard-hitting and rhythmic, or something in between, I adapt to the vibe you’re chasing.

My work has landed hundreds of sync placements across major TV networks, films, and streaming platforms—proof that I know how to create music that connects, performs, and gets placed.

From indie artists building their first EP to industry veterans pushing the envelope, I collaborate closely to bring each artist’s vision to life. If you’re looking for a creative partner who takes your sound seriously, brings professional polish, and isn’t afraid to experiment—let’s build something unforgettable.
