Interview with Aria Lanelle

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I'm so proud of my debut album. I wrote it, arranged it, produced it, and performed it. I was also the creative director for my visuals, and I assembled an amazing team.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I just released my debut album, so I'm promoting it.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: I think it depends on the energy, purpose, and vibe of the song. Something off of Tyler's "Igor" album might have been analog or analog-sounding due to the retro energy, but something off of Amaarae's latest album sounds best in digital due to the futuristic club vibe the album has.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I promise to deliver professional, industry competitive vocals.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I love music and I love singing.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: They often ask me how quick my turnaround is, and I tell them around 48 hours.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That it's easy just because it looks easy. This is just the result of literally tens of thousands of hours of practice and execution.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: I ask what they're looking for this song to achieve and if it's being pitched as a demo for another artist (that way I can mimic their arranging style a bit).
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: I'd say to know what you want and be clear in your directions. Then, trust me as the professional to execute your vision.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My mic, my laptop, my interface, my Mogami cable, and a water pitcher with a filter.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been singing my entire life since I was about 3 or 4. Then I joined the church choir when I got a little older, started doing musical theatre, joined the school choir, joined the Boston Children's Chorus, did MMEA Northeastern Senior District choir multiple times, and then I got into Berklee College of Music. After graduating with honors, I won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest in the R&B division for my very first single as an artist, and then I was the vocalist on a House cover of "Saturday Love" that wound up distributed by Sony UK. I've been working in music ever since.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: My style is very lush and layered, while still being vibrant and unique.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I would love to work with Tyler The Creator, and of course, Beyoncé.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Pay attention to your frequencies. So much beautiful intricacy can be lost if one vocal or instrument is masking another due to them existing in the same frequency.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I usually work on a variety of music, from R&B to Pop to House.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: My strongest skill is singing and arranging.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring confident vocal expertise and versatility. I love to sing and I'm good at it.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I make sure my voice is warmed up and clear, have the lyrics typed out in front of me, and I lay down a rough lead vocal. Then I arrange the backgrounds to make my own backing track, and fine-tune the lead performance via punch-ins (or just re-recording the lead from scratch).
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My studio setup is a monitor, my mic, an Alctron windscreen, my laptop, Logic Pro X, and a host of plugins (like Waves, etc).
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I am heavily inspired by Prince's work ethic, as well as Beyoncé's work ethic. I look up to great vocalists of the past who really honed their craft like Whitney Houston, Ella Fitzgerald, and other similar artists.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I do session vocals for my clients. That includes lead vocals, backgrounds, demos for other artists, etc.
