Cole Mendez on SoundBetter

Internationally touring pianist, producer, and sound designer delivering soulful keys, modern textures, and mix-ready stems.

I’m an internationally touring pianist, producer, and sound designer specializing in expressive keys, modern textures, and mix-ready stems.

As a founding member of The Free Label, I’ve contributed songwriting and production across a catalogue with tens of millions of streams, global radio play, and collaborations with Nic Hanson, Bare Jams, Saults, Gabe Gallucci (Shawn Mendes, 1B+ streams), Aaron Paris (Drake, DJ Khaled, Kanye West), and Grammy-nominated saxophonist Braxton Cook (Taylor Swift, Solange). I’ve also performed live with Slakah the Beatchild (Drake) and shared stages as direct support for Allen Stone, Ripe, Mononeon, and T-Pain. I am a Roland artist.

My production and writing credits include Shad’s TAO (“Slot Machines”), Chris LaRocca’s “difficult” (Bryson Tiller, Kali Uchis, Summer Walker), and a sync placement on CBC’s Kim’s Convenience.

I work across funk, soul, R&B, jazz, and pop—genres that shape both my harmonic language and the samples I create for trap, hip-hop, and modern R&B. My studio includes a JUNO-106, Nord Stage, Yamaha Motif and MX61, Roland Stage-V, Hammond B3, upright and felt pianos, toy keyboards, Yamaha PSR boards, and extensive soft synths. I have access to Rhodes, Wurlitzer, Clavinet, and other vintage keys.

I deliver clean stems, strong musical instinct, and soulful piano tailored to your track.
