Interview with JConn
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Producing for artists and engineering at studios around Houston.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What type of beats are you looking for? I almost always ask for references. I also try to get an understanding of what my client's overall musical goals are.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I'll usually start by either playing or creating a beat for an artist. Once we have that, the artist will write a song on top of it. The artist then records vocals, sends them to me and I edit those back into the track. From there, the song is mixed and mastered.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Produce songs with artists, vocal mixing, mastering.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Computer, Sony MDR7506 headphones, Midi Controller, Tube Tech CL1B, Sony C800G Microphone
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: D.B. Ricapito's EP in 2020 "I Can't Explain It". I produced + co-wrote most of the songs. He had been on a musical hiatus for a bit when we first started working, and was looking for a new sound to sort of reinvent himself. I'm proud of the project because I feel like I really helped him find that sound.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I'll do everything I can to make sure you love the final product.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Anyone who's talented and under the radar. I love working with artists who are still developing/finding their sound because they have freedom to try all sorts of different things.

A: Home studio in my apartment
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been producing since 2012, before that I was a Singer-songwriter and played in a band called The OverUnder. One day I decided I wanted to start recording my own music, which is how I initially started making beats. From there, production quickly became an obsession and I shifted my entire focus towards creating songs for other artists.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That I'm only making beats.
