dad, husband, owner and head engineer of audioconfusion creative recording space I've been recording for over 20 years and dabbling with audio in general for even longer. I like "real" sounds. No over processing here.
Audioconfusion has been running strong in the valley since '97.
HERE ARE SOME KIND WORDS:
There are few Arizona studios with a loyal following like Audioconfusion and even less producers like Jalipaz. Known to generations of artists as a musical godfather and mentor, he unflinchingly captures the magic behind the soundboard at Audioconfusion. There aren't any one-size-fits-all gated reverbs or cookie cutter compression effects here. Every recording session is authentic and real. Where some studios bank on delivering a “signature sound,” Audioconfusion is based upon the premise of genuine musicality backed by a strong work ethic. Every recording session and album are unique productions where the artist's character can shine through. The results are honest, raw, and brilliant – just like the first album you fell in love with. ~ Jonathan Cisneros

A: Everything! I love working with artists because we share the same passion. I also hear at least one thing that is totally original come from every artist I work with, and thats super exciting!
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Natural. I don't over process anything. I like to let the music speak for itself but I also understand that the right production can really make a song pop.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I would say my strongest skill is making a recording that sounds like that band and not my own perception of that band.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: That I will do everything I can to make you happy with your product. Sounds cheesy but, if you're not happy then Im not happy, and thats the truth.

A: Be yourself and have fun. It will really come out in the recording.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: A fresh outlook
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I designed my studio so I could keep my prices low and still offer an awesome finished product. The studio was designed from the ground up. It consists of a large live room where bands can record, a room for organic reverb and a separate control room.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: My main influences are Steve Albini (pixies, nirvana), Dave Fridmann (the flaming lips, mgmt) and George Martin (the beatles)
