Dean Dichoso on SoundBetter

Visionary multi-genre Producer, Songwriter, Mixer, Multi-Instrumentalist. Credits include Candlebox, Fefe Dobson, Netflix, American Idol, Warner Canada

I have a romantic relationship with production. What I do is facilitate the artist's relationship with the journey to a final product - a finish line, set at the beginning of service.

As a professional multi-instrumentalist session musician myself, I create intimate relationships with each member of an ensemble and get to the know the artist from within.

I absolutely love a vast span of musical genres. From purely ambient (electronic or acoustic), to shoegaze and indie-inspired rock, to Americana, Singer/Songwriter, to Rock, to Hardcore, to Metal. I will make the best version of your product that you will ever receive.
