ABI on SoundBetter

Trabajemos Juntos. Let's make some music. My favorite part about being to work as a producer is having the opportunity to discovering new ways to express feelings, convey emotion, and most imporatntly create memories through music.

Hi guys! My name is Abi and I am a drummer, multi-instrumentalist, producer and artist from Arlington, TX. Growing up in Puerto Rico, I started my musical journey and professional playing drums at a very young age. My experience along with this weird obsession with details brings out the best in me and a signature lush sound and vibe to whatever record i'm faced with.

I have a very musical approach to my style. Growing up in Puerto Rico, I've acquiered influence from pop-latino, salsa, and latin hip-hop. After moving to Texas from the island in 2015, I started listening to hip-hop, RnB and contemporary pop, that all contribute to a range of sounds that I introduce into my work, all the way from Justin Bieber sounding tracks, to Rauw Alejandro style tracks.

My services include:
- Tuning and editing your vocals
- Full track production
- Live drum tracking

Outstanding experience with Abimael! He sent me an awesome song with a great chorus, knew what he wanted, expressed his ideas clearly and I got the necessary files to complete the job from the get go. Always super cool and supportive when we where exchanging ideas. 5 out of 5, for sure would work with him again and it's a pleasure to collaborate with such a talented producer.
