Professor Fox on SoundBetter

My clients Include Chance the Rapper and Mac Miller Ab-Soul, Smoke Dza, and Adara. I am mostly known for my left of center sound design and my clients keep coming back for me to make their singles.

I have produced, mixed, and mastered thousands of songs for both major label clients and indies. I take my time and communicate with my clients to best understand their needs. Hip hop, pop and EPIC drums are my specialty. I look forward to working with you.
