Audio Producer / Engineer
Madban the Doctor (born Bryce Foster), is a audio producer and engineer from Minneapolis, Minnesota who commonly collaborates with S.O.S. (Speed of Sound), the Hip-Hop duo of BDaMan and B.Allen. Madban started engineering on rare occasion in 2007, as he worked with BDaMan on his earlier projects. Once he learned about FL Studio later in 2007, he began to produce instrumentals for BDaMan, Reidy and Signature. As he received constructive criticism on his mixes and instrumentals throughout the years via music friends, such as Signature and SayJak, it motivated Madban to continue growth as a producer and engineer. In 2018, Madban decided to return to Minneapolis College to pursue the Sound Arts degree, to further expand and fine tune his knowledge of the world of sound. Madban graduated from Minneapolis College in 2020 with his Associate of Science Degree in Sound Arts. With a vast level of ambition, there’s no limit to the potential that Madban can reach.

Interview with Madban The Doctor
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: For my final semester of the Sound Arts program at MCTC (Minneapolis Community & Technical College), I had to do a final project that I recorded, mixed and mastered. I recorded a six-song EP under my Hip-Hop artist moniker, BDaMan. I then mixed & mastered it under my Audio Production/Engineer moniker, Madban The Doctor. I am especially proud of this project, because I was able to expand upon my prior skills and utilize all of the skills gained within the Sound Arts program. It was also the first serious project I was able to mix and master on my own.
