Blessings, my name is Gregory Stutzer and I’ve been producing for over 10 years now. I first started making beats in Queens NY using my older sisters laptop because I couldn't find or afford quality beats.

FAST FWRD 10 years
Since then, I've spent over 10,000 hours mastering my signature sound. I've amassed over 2 million combined streams on Spotify and iTunes & I’ve also composed for brands like; Showtime, Netflix, AirBnB, and Facebook.

The main difference between me and the typical beat maker is that I have 7 years of experience in releasing and marketing records. Not just making beats.

Creating a successful record requires more than a just a beat! You’ll always need someone produce, engineer and mix the song. Then there’s marketing and promotion. No matter what anyone say's
YOU CAN’T DO IT ALONE.

Thats why I’ve assembled a small team of talented professionals. So that you don’t have to navigate the music industry alone.

You don't need a RECORD LABEL. You just need a GOOD TEAM

Even with the best strategies there is still a lot of hard work involved. Our job is to do the heavy lifting for you so you can focus more on just making the music..

I’m looking forward working with you!

Best, Gregory Stutzer, founder of The.Wav
