Felipe Sushi on SoundBetter

I can write your full arrangement from zero or just write the brass or string sections. If you need a pop/rock keyboard track, I can also record them for you.

Brazilian musician, producer and arranger.

Focused in arrangement for rhythmic section, brass and string section, I have also been playing with several music groups over the last 10 years, which I have directed the most of them.

Also specialized in kids voice's recording due the music director job at several Walt Disney's brazilian productions, where I have worked with over 200 different voice actors/singers in more than 25 TV shows.

Sushi is a great guy to work with! He was very clear on his demands and what he expected from the cello recording. Also, the parts were very well written. Hope to work with him again soon!

Interview with Felipe Sushi

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: It was my own project entitled "2+1". With just 21yrs, I decided to record 2 arrangements and 1 composition. In one of them, I wrote for voice, 3 saxophones, 2 trumpets, 1 trombone and full rhythmic section including 2 percussions. In other song, I wrote also for a full band plus clarinet, flugel, flute and trombone. Also, during the quarantine, I recorded with 45 different musicians, in the same video, a classic samba that was televised on CNN Brasil.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I'm working with 6 songs from a Brazilian singer and composer, turning it into life!
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: Make your music unique!
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I'm not that kind of person that just perform the job. I really like to get involved with the music that I work with and catch me singing it while I take shower or cook. I like to make people's music part of my life.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: It's much more than write any melody and ask for a string player or a brass section record it.

A: What do you like to listen? Why?
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: Since 2011 and I still have a lot to learn.

A: If you need an emotional sound, I'll make you cry with the chords and melodies. If you need a dancing song, I'll make your feet moves with the rhythmic divisions and a powerful sound.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Listen to all different kind of music you can and absorve things you like and dislike in each one. Every type of music has something to teach us.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Funk/Disco music, Brazilian Music, Pop/Rock, R&B.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Advanced harmony knowledge, large experience with multiple sizes of groups and a big familiarity with the most acoustic instruments.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Creativity, beauty, humanity and the assurance of having a self identity in your song
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I really enjoy having a great initial conversation with the artist to understand what are the expectations, which references he/she wants to show or just to approximate us before we start working together.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: When we talk about writing or producing, it's impossible not mentioning Quincy Jones, Alan Menken or Sammy Nestico. In Brazil, I love the way that Cesar Camargo Mariano, Debora Gurgel and Nailor Proveta write. They are masters!
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Arrangement on demand for any combination of musicians.
