I'm a triple threat singer, songwriter, and engineer with a passion for making radio ready hits. If you want something with quality that sounds like a catchy Billboard chart-topper but also has layers of depth and substance, I'm your collaborator. I love to work in a team of ambitious and open-minded individuals whose visions are unlimited.
Hi there! My name is Christo, I'm an artist and audio engineer. I went to school for Recording Arts and graduated with a Bachelor's Degree from Full Sail University in 2018. I've been making music since I was 16 and I've never known a greater consistent quality about myself. I've been able to perfect my craft over the last 10 years and I'm making it my mission to have it discovered and recognized over the next 10. My sound is a blend of great women in music who inspire me - Ariana Grande, SZA, Beyonce, Kehlani, Kacey Musgraves, and many others. I love a great and dynamic vocal performance, met with playful and meaningful lyrics on top of banging, bouncy, smooth, and moving beats. My music has evolved so much since I've started writing and my career has continued to grow and reach new milestones with each passing year. In 2023, my track "Pretty" reached a peak of 3k on Spotify. And this year, my track "Anymore" has reached a peak of 5.5k and counting, bringing my monthly listeners to a record 2k. I have always been sure that music is my path to financial freedom and fulfillment and I've never doubted or lost sight of my goal. My mission on here and through my artistry - is to inspire the same in other aspiring music industry individuals. I promise to bring this energy to any project you need assistance with - whether it's vocals, lyrics, mixing, or mastering.

Interview with Christo
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I currently record from my bedroom and set up my microphone in my closet. I am fortunate enough to have studied and practiced my skills over the years to manipulate my underground setup and create a quality of sound that can be compared to what you hear on the radio from a professional artist.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Definitely Ariana Grande, Beyonce, SZA, and Kehlani. In terms of vocals, these women have so much talent that they showcase in each of their songs. Through melodies, techniques, tone, layers, and emotion - their voices tell the story of a song on their own. In my own work, I do the same when choosing specific riffs and runs and where to place background vocals and harmonies. Lyrically, I think SZA is a genius. She brings so much raw emotion and awareness to her content and it inspires you to look and think introspectively. I love being able to apply the meaning of a song to myself even if it sounds like it's directed to somebody else. And Kacey Musgraves is another artist whose lyrics hit different. I take a lot of inspiration from her positive outlook on life and try to spread this message and perspective in my own work as well.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I love being involved with songwriting the most. I think taking a personal experience and telling a story through lyrics and a good vocal performance is the key to making beautiful art from whatever we lost, gained, or learned from what we went through. That being said, the passion for vocals helps me identify what a solid take or comp would sound like. This helps build the song to its highest potential. Not only making it sound good, but more so what it was meant to sound like. I also love the process of adding background vocals, stacking harmonies and layers to accompany the lead vocal. This prevents and empty and lonely sounding track. I would consider mixing and mastering more secondary. It's more technical and focuses on the quality of sound. I specialize in it and it's important because ultimately it's the glue for the song's sound and vision.
