Interview with Otto Díaz O.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: It allows me to create, to work on music and make myself and other happy. I enjoy every moment of producing, mixing, playing instruments. It brings me joy and positivity.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Have a clear goal in mind or a clear set of instructions. The more concise you are, it's going to help me understand your vision and the more happy you'll be with the results.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been working in studios since 2014. All this time I've had the opportunity to work on commercial jobs like jingles, sound design for film and TV commercials, radio. Outside of the studio "day job" I've been playing instruments since middle school and working on my writing skills since 18 yrs old. This is something I thoroughly enjoy and picture myself doing for a very long time.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: There are no bad ideas, just ones that are not so good ;)
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening. I listen to what you have to say, what you have in mind and where you visualize your music so that I can help you take that music to where you wanted and more.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I like to start by having a conversation and understanding the needs of the client. Once I have a clear view of what they want, I give my input in order to materialize that idea with ideas brought from another perspective. The main goal is for the client to be happy and proud of their finalized product.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Pharrell Williams, Daft Punk, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jorge Drexler, Trent Reznor
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Clients come to me with their original songs and ask for my production services. I help take the song to the next level by arranging and including more instrumentation. I always offer mixing services for the productions.
