Cantankerous Monk Productions
Services
My specialty is helping people develop their musical ideas into a complete vision, then co-producing a body of work that everyone is eager to share!
- Musical Collaboration and Lyric Writing
- Accompaniment on Bass, Guitar, Drums/Percussion, Keys/Synth, Voice, and other miscellaneous instrumentation for getting the desired texture/color/vibe
- Mixing - bring your own stems (or we can create them from scratch)
- Recording - up to 32 tracks of portable, on-site recording
- Restoring and transferring old/damaged recordings
How I Work
I like to provide some up-front services for free to earn your trust and to get a sense of working together (eg: collaborating on a musical idea, then recording/mixing a single as a stream-quality MP3). Then, rather than setting a project or hourly rate, I prefer to work for tips & points (proportional contribution as percentage of future royalties)
...like an All-In Producer but minus the upfront cost!
For me, this is the best/fairest way to work; it's the least stressful and everyone is properly incentivized to focus on quality over speed. I'm an ASCAP member (Writer and Publisher) and am registered with The MLC. So, I can also help you protect your creative output and ensure performance/streaming royalties don't go unclaimed!
