Interview with Raul Lozano
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: My phone and its charger My laptop and its charger A water machine?
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I did education and training for one year in high school. I was a freshman convinced I wanted to be a teacher. Still, now I consider that profession but it’s the people person and showman in me wanting to be in front of a group of people talking and inspiring 24/7.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: My style is fresh, minimal, and catchy.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Russ. He’s a musical INTELECTUAL! You cannot deny him his accolades or accomplishments from sales to features to his impact on the culture of Hip-Hop. There’s a lot I can learn from someone like that.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Follow your heart and gut. Your ears and brain love to whisper lies to keep you from ever finishing or sharing your creation. Don’t listen to the self-doubt. Listen to what you’re dreaming of in your head in the moment of creation, and let it take you wherever it does.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Hip-Hop.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Memorization.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring big energy, strong vocals, and a strange and memorable melody.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I start by creating the composition or story. Either the lyrics or beat to establish what I call our intent. Whichever comes out first is what dictates what I do next. After that, I simply do things that compliment what’s already being recorded/performed in terms of musical arrangement.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Now, my setup consists of a MacBook Pro and Logic Pro X, with an Apollo Twin audio interface and a vast series of plugins and virtual instruments.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Some major artists include Cristian Castro, Michael Jackson, Russ, Eminem, Ariana Grande, & Justin Timberlake.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Most of my work is providing vocals for songs either hooks, verses, or harmonies. A lot of my work is in live performances and shows but now I make beats and engineer for artists in person and remotely.
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: Last project I released was a 2 feature single that I produced and put together. It included two very awesome artists from California and Atlanta. This was my dream project so I handled pretty much all aspects of production except for the mixing and mastering.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I’m currently working on my publishing through HMV ENT and continuing my education through university and independently.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: No, not yet.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both. Some analog just can’t be beaten and some digital lack real feeling.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I promise you are gonna get the best of me and a better me every time we work.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Meeting people and helping them bring to life their dream.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: How much do you charge? I don’t answer. I deflect and I ask them about them. Get to know your customer. They found you for a reason. They’re looking. Make them feel sought out for as well. It’s an impression they’ll never forget.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That it's easy and anyone can do it.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: I ask about experience. Their motivation to finish this project. How they plan to finalize the production for engineering, distribution. Splitting the song, registering the song etc.
