John White on SoundBetter

Singer/songwriter Producer. Studied at Citrus college recording technology. Singing professionally for 7 years now in and out of studios in LA and I was also a part time Mixing engineer at Dberg studios in burbank CA. Currently working 9-5 at Warner Music Group in DTLA.

I can provide you high quality vocals in either a fast pace/quick turnaround type of scenario and/or a more time consuming approach to your song. Either way i can guarantee you a great product. I love to be creative so don't hesitate to be as tedious as you feel necessary with ideas.

My voice can be used on anything from pop, Dance pop, Electro pop, R&B, R&B Electro, EDM (Future bass, progressive house, future pop and future house) no matter how dynamic you want your vocals to be we can make it happen. Also if you need me to mix/master the song for you I can do that as well! Lets make it happen and bring your song to life!

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

    JayyDee was incredible to work with!! When I was unsure of the direction for the song he was open to giving me a new perspective for it!! Literally cannot thank him enough for helping me move the song in the right direction and for sending it HOME!! The creativity and complete authenticity shines through.

    I had JD review some songs that I was unsure about. He really took the time to dive deep into them and understand what I was trying to communicate. He gave me some dope ideas - toplines, lyrics, and production elements that will give my tracks a lot of life.

    JD is a true pro, and I'd work with him again in a heartbeat.

  26. A: Electro Pop with EDM influences.
