Jr, Abi Cruz, Abusivo, Amy Jo Johnson, ryanjohnclary & more!
Mixing & Mastering Engineer ready to work. I have a playlist in Spotify called "DJ Remixed Entertainment" and everything in that playlist has been produced, mixed or mastered by me. I specialize in working with indie artists who record from home & small studios. I've spent many years recording from home and working with other artists who do the same so I am very familiar with the challenges many start up artists have in home studios.
For those who want to hear my music, you can find it under my artist name Yo Homeboi Julius C. Most of my songs and collaborations have been recorded in home studios with entry level equipment and mixed & mastered by me.

Interview with Cesar D. Lima
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Working on my own personal album and various projects for artists like Ryan John Clary & P.R.ism aka Puertoricanism
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog modeled digital plug ins for consistent & versatile results.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: The project is done when the client is happy.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Music is my passion, I could do this day and night.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started as a music producer back in 2003 and around 2007 I began writing and rapping but I really didn't begin getting tracks completed around 2013 where I began releasing music. The music had potential but the quality was very underground quality so I began learning mixing engineering and began getting good around 2017, when I began learning mastering. Each year, with more skills, training, equipment and experience, I've gotten better and better and what I'm working now far exceeds everything from the past.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: As someone originally from Chicago, I would love to work with Chicago artists like Twista.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: A subtle side chain from either kick, kick and snare, or the whole drums to the rest of the production, gives the track a nice bounce type of vibe that gets people moving without realizing, specially head bopping, even if it is very subtle that it is almost unnoticeable.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Hip Hop, Rap, Pop Rap, Slow Jams, Acoustic, Soft Rock, Hip House & Reggaeton.
