  13. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  14. A: I bring the knowledge of musical space and how to create a hit record. I bring competitive music every time that makes it almost impossible to select what you want. I ride the sonics and feeling of the record and let it takeover.

  15. Q: What's your typical work process?

  16. A: I typically like to catch a wave from movies or my environment. I'll light a few candles hit the lights and keep only the studio lighting on. Then i'll start going through drum sounds or synths and keys and begin that way, sometimes i start with listening to classic r&b and hip hop music to get inspired or occasionally flip the sample.. I let the music carry me.. its an entire vibe.

  17. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  18. A: I produced Justin Bieber's die in your arms. Im super proud of this being my very first platinum record. This song was his first promo single released for the Believe album. I remember producing this record on a day off from the studio at home in LA at the dining room table. (lol) My roomate and brother Travis Sayles heard what i was doing and encouraged me to keep going when i was close to scraping it and moving on. We had Tommy Gunnz demo it and Rodney Jerkins ended up a year later placing it with Justin Bieber. Bieber went on to state it was his favorite song from his entire album. This was what dreams are made of!

  23. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  24. A: Digital ive stepped into digital years ago because i wanted to be current with whats out here.
