Frankie Kefran - SouthBlue - Indie Pop Music Producer - France

Lover of all genres, I produce unique pieces of art that stay in your mind. And as I'm french, you can ask me to add a special touch to every song.

I've been producing on a daily basis for the last 5 years. As I'm curious, I wanted to know how to produce a lot of different music genres. Today, I'm confident to offer radio-ready music in the following genres : hip-hop, rock, indie rock, pop, orchestral, future bass, electro, lofi.
I look forward to collaborate to many artists because it's always matter of improving myself and share an artistic experience.
