I did a 808 lesson with Tips at his studio. Tipz is dope. He is a master at crafting 808's. You can tell he has a lot of experience in his craft because he can get 808 notes by ear and duplicate any 808 sound from any recording. He also played me songs that he recently produced. His mixing skills are professional.
If you are an urban songwriter in the L.A area and need a producer to make your demo with you in the studio, you want to look into working with Tipz. I know I will in the future.

A brilliant music producer! The track he created is very contemporary but also has a sense of timelessness. We wanted something relevant today, but not trendy or fleeting. Tipz has just the right balance—a strong sense of musicality and structure that will be relevant right now and years to come. That ain't easy. AMAZING work!

Tipz slays again with another amazing production! The beats and bass were hypnotic, and perfectly blended with the vocals, guitar, etc. The energy and vibe were exactly what my co-writer and I had envisioned for this song. Tipz’s receptiveness to ideas and open, genuine personality make it a pleasure and privilege as always to work with him!

Tipz was so great to work with, very open to my ideas, and encouraged me to really explore and share whatever elements were forming in my head on the spot. I was completely blown away by the production—so intricate, and he managed to capture EXACTLY what I envisioned and then some. He was also super patient and easygoing, and quick to deliver on revisions and requests. Thanks so much!
