Music Producer / Artist Development for Lil Mabu
BeatStars • Freelance
Jan 2021 - Present • 5 yrs 8 mos
Music Producer, Composer & Sound Designer for Lil Mabu and Young Genius Academy, with an ongoing working relationship spanning multiple releases and projects. I have produced a significant portion of Lil Mabu’s catalog, including 6 productions on the Young Genius album, and continue to contribute to new music today. My work has been part of releases that achieved a #1 position on Billboard’s TikTok chart, Billboard Hot 100 charting, and hundreds of millions of streams. My role goes beyond beat production. I contribute across music production, composition, song arrangement, sound design, pre-production, post-production, vocal production, audio engineering, and creative direction. I also bring a music cognition perspective into the process, using insights from neuroscience, psychology, psychoacoustics, and listener perception to inform decisions around emotion, attention, repetition, tension and release, pacing, sonic contrast, and overall listener experience. The goal is always to support the artist’s identity while making each record feel intentional, distinctive, and commercially effective.
