Aye Aye! Look - instead of describing how unique and how R&B my sound is (everybody says the same thing anyway), I simply put together a reel of my latest works with different talented artists in various genres - feel free to check it out in "audio sample" section on my page. Let me know if you like that secret Mark Evich sauce ;)
Be it producing a song from scratch based on your iPhone voice note or polishing a beat you created; tuning your vocals or getting the drums to KNOCK; working on an EP or adding live instruments to an otherwise finished song; summerwalkery vibey beat or alt-soul raw production (with secret Mark Evich sauce) - that's right up my alley for sure.
I'm also an artist, so that helps a lot to understand what a singer wants and how to work with vocals!
We'll work on your song together as a team, and I'm really curious to hear what you got in store and excited to make you shine even brighter.
I just added a new reel with the best works I've done in the first half of 2022:
00:00 - 00:42 || "current" R&B
00:43 - 01:00 || Lo-Fi R&B
01:00 - 1:30 || Pop
1:31 - 2:00 || Nu-Funk / Dance
2:01 - 2:30 || soul / smooth jazz
Audio reel 1:
00:00 - 00:43 | Slow R&B / Trap&B
00: 44 - 01:24 | Funk / Nu-Funk
01:25 - 01:36 | Pop R&B / Pop Hip-Hop
01:37 - 02:16 | Neo-Soul / R&B
02:17 - 02:56 | Pop
02:57 - 03:30 | Lo-Fi Hip-Hop
In 2021, I was honored to have worked with dozens of talented artists, a few publishing companies, and released original music, which found its way into 3 Spotify editorial playlists like Fresh Finds and Best Funk Songs of 2021. Feel free to check out the reviews here on Soundbetter, too!
So let's talk and let's make something beautiful together!

check_circleVerifiedMark is an amazingly talented musician and producer.My group has done two songs with him and both songs are amazing. He really pays attention to detail, even down the instruments we wanted. We look forward to working with him again!
check_circleVerifiedThis was my first time working with Mark and it was truly an amazing experience! I came to him with a very broad concept and he was able to identify exactly what I wanted to make a beat that I was extremely happy with. More importantly, I felt like he shared my passion for music and he gave my track the attention it deserved. Can't wait to work with him again and I would definitely recommend him!

Mark is a real pro, reliable and talented producer. I will work with him again for sure!

Such a dope person to work with - had the ear to hear exactly what I wanted and made my song come to life. Also, I was looking at other producers, but Mark was so genuine in his responses to my initial contacts that I just trusted him with the project and I don't regret it at all. Thanks again Mark, will definitely hit you up again for more collabs soon!

Awesome work, highly recommend!

It was a pleasure to work with Mark. He produces top-quality music very quickly and he is very knowledgeable and has a good ear. This is my first song I have ever collaborated with a producer on and I am grateful this was my first experience. I know he's meant for big things with his level of work and professionalism.
check_circleVerifiedMark took my track to the next level, the additional production he added made the song 100x better. Will definitely be working with him again!
check_circleVerifiedMark is very easy to work with. He ALWAYS comes up with the coolest, funkiest arrangements that impress me every time. His turnaround time is super quick and he’s excellent when it comes to communication. I plan on working with him for a very long time.

Thanks to Mark, I now have a catchy R&B track I was going for. The song has a lot of little detail here and there that makes it sound amazing. Plus, it’s a catchy vibe I could listen to all day. Definitely will work with him on future projects!

Loved to work with this talented dude and will kick on some more project with him for sure !!
check_circleVerifiedRepeat client here. Mark is genuinely the best. Super intuitive, extraordinarily talented and very open to different styles and approaches. The process is streamlined and very clear. Huge, huge fan. 10/10 recommend to anyone who I can trap into talking to me.

Wonderful wonderful wonderful! I've never worked with someone who cared so much, and passionately wanted me to be satisfied with the final product. Throughout the process, Mark was super patient, kind, and assuring. He took the time to really listen to what my goals were for the project, and made the process super simple. Would highly recommend!
check_circleVerifiedMark was all around the perfect producer for my neo soul track. He was super thorough and thoughtful, excited to try new things, implemented feedback quickly and precisely, and over all, just a solid stand up person! Not only is he a skilled musician, but he knows how to tailor the dynamics and textures to fit the sound you're going for. I feel like I've found a valuable new member to join "the team" and I know I'll be hitting him up again soon!!!

Interview with Mark Evich
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: How long will it take you to do this? - I'm on the faster side. You can expect first demo in 2 to 3 days and a final product within 1,5 weeks.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Guitar; my MacBook; Montiors; Midi Keyboard; Headhones. But I'll also need a power generator, so...
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Soul With Balls.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Can't wait to work with BJ The Chicago Kid and Anthony Hamilton - their voice tones just do something to me, make me wanna build beautiful music around them.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Be risky.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening closely to the material and the idea before creating anything.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: The crucial element is the song itself even after all the production layers you put on it. So I amplify the message; sometimes we would come up with more parts, rearrange the structure, add a prechorus or chorus. When my job is done, I want to see a clear, bright picture - although with a lot of details.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I would usually get as much information as possible from an artist to make sure I got the idea right. It's the most important part! Then I deliver a shorter demo to make sure I got the idea right. After the initial feedback, I would move on and finalize the beat and send it back to the artist.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both - whichever helps me reach the best results.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: Personal approach; unique style; fast delivery; honesty.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I simply love music. And it feels so great to see the ideas and concepts become full blown songs, or better yet - albums; to see music videos made for these songs; to see people singing these songs at the shows.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What is the message or story you want to tell? Who are you favorite singers and musicians? Who are your LEAST favorite singers and musicians? Are you willing to experiment with this project or looking for specific and relatively commercial sound?
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: 90% of the time it would be r&b, soul, hip-hop, rap, trap... Sometimes it would be something totally different like rock or music for commercials.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Adam T5 monitors, Telecaster guitar, 2 midi keyboards, Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 sound card, AKG K240 headphones.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: There are two main lines of work. One is making the beat from the scratch by artist's request so that he or she could write to it. Another one is creating the instrumental for a song that artist has already written and has a draft/sketch of. In this case I would make sure to convey and amplify the message and make sure the idea really shines.
