I’m honored to be joining the @recordingacademy Class of 2025!

I now have a voice in the GRAMMY Awards process and a platform to advocate for our industry, support my fellow creatives, and work toward a better future for the arts.

As a producer and engineer I stand on the shoulders of the immensely talented artists that I get to work with every day. I’m beyond grateful to make a living doing what I love 😊

Feeling inspired from a recent Miami trip writing tunes with my homies @iamvalfleury & @adriang.music 🌴

Next Friday 5/29 I’ll be closing out upstairs at @the_barbary with @tpatt_music & @flip_morrison for @into.the.groove.phl

I’ve been digging (and producing) a lot for this night and I’m super excited to share some great tracks with yall 💿

Rumor has it @adriang.music has already cooked up multiple heaters using the pole we sampled in slide 4 🙂‍↕️

Club Creature 🪩 Zach Atom and Giavacious team up on the last track of the album where deep melodic bass meets a feverish sensuality. Bubbling bass lines, classic prog percussion, and hypnotic soft whispers ignite the dance floor into a lustful inferno; Leaving you dripping with passion. The classic Zach Atom production infused with the allusive nature of Giavacious’ touch leaves nothing left unsaid or unfelt.

🪩Listen to ‘Club Creature’ on all streaming platforms🪩

Playing a free NYE set at @wissahickonoldekensington 🥳

Pull up and have some delicious beers or come early for the @boyfriendmaterialphl drag show beforehand 🍾

(There is a cover for the drag show but it’ll be free after for my set)

Also enjoy the video of these kittens I saw the other day 🐈🐈‍⬛

My career in music would quite simply not have happened if @kelly4delly hadn’t come along. Long nights, feast or (lots of) famine cycles, and constant uncertainty are no match for the stability I feel when we’re together.

Big love to all the immensely talented artists who have put their time, energy, and money behind their vision to create beautiful music even when it might feel devalued in this strange time. There are too many to tag here, but I’ll soon be highlighting some of the great work we’ve done in 2025 🌟

The Loudness War is still on, but not everyone is in the ring 🥊

Grab my free mixing checklist for club and festival ready tracks by commenting “checklist” ✅

I looked at the @beatport Top 100 from August 2025 to find some recent trends in dance music production. Most of the tracks were considerably loud in the range of -7 to -9 Integrated LUFS.

Instead of blindly aiming for that loudness range, I’d recommend considering the arrangement of your song and the contrast between the quiet and loud sections.

And more generally, does the extra limiting actually make your song translate better, or is it just louder for the sake of being loud?

#musicproducer #ableton #mixingtips #musicmixing #edmproducer #mixengineer #producerlife #mastering #beatport

For me, mastering is a series of small changes that help a song reach its full potential.

@hlwamusic and @dj.romar sent me an amazing mix with great vocals, so I got to focus more on “enhancement” than “cleanup” ✨

A mid-side EQ like the @brainworxaudio Digital V3 allows you to isolate different elements of the mix without significantly shifting phase. In this case it enhanced the clarity of the vocal by tightening up the bright reverbs & delays on the sides, while focusing the high end with a boost in the mid channel.

And for a multiband stereo widener like the one in @izotopeinc Ozone, you can add width to create a more “enveloping” feel but I often like to decrease stereo width to help focus the impact of transient-heavy sounds like hats and claps 💥

Golden hour is cool but have you tried Ableton?

‘In the Morning’ is out now 🌊

Stealing synths and stems 🥷

The microKorg has such a nice resonance on its filter, it really shines on this bass line 🎛️

Shoutout my buddy @ant_22_d for lending it to me! Within a day I was adding it to my projects.

Trying out a new recording setup with this one 🎥 Worked out a lot of kinks so the next ones should look and sound much better.

The “car test” is overrated 🚗🔊

Everyone says “just check it in the car” but I would never rely on a 2016 Nissan Altima to make my mix decisions

Do you agree?? Or is the car test still king 👑
