Nelson (Nellz) Kyle on SoundBetter

I'm a very experienced engineer who has worked with many major label recording artists. I have produced, mixed and engineered records in multiple genres. My main focus here is to assist clients in getting the best product possible. I can perform any task necessary to achieve a professional product. Please let me know how I can help you.

I got my start in the industry over 10 years ago interning for Dallas Austin. From there I worked my way up to studio engineer and also began producing my own music and working with artists. Shortly after I partnered up with a Florida based production team known as "The Agency". Our work took us to LA and I have been here ever since. Over this time I have developed a very well rounded set of skills. I'm able to tune vocals, mix, edit, arrange, and produce full records. In the 10+ years in the industry, I have worked in every capacity possible. Working hands on with artists is my speciality. I can perform any task in the mixing, recording, and editing spectrum. I am here to provide you with the highest quality work possible to help bring your projects to life. Please let me know how I can help you, even if it's not in the job description. I also have an audio engineering degree and have experience working with video clients with sound design.

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

Interview with Nelson (Nellz) Kyle

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I have a single, "CAB" on Chris Brown's Breezy album. I created the loop the beat was based on and helped with the writing and production of the record.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Fast and Furious, SZA, NLE Choppah, NBA Youngboy, etc...
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Riley Urick, Mickey Shiloh, Jordan (Skimmy) Suecof
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog is always the best for quality, but digital will always win for convenience. Also, digital is almost unrecognizable these days, unless you're making music for engineers and producers.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: You will always walk away with the highest quality work I can deliver. I always believe in being the best problem solver in the room. You will definitely want to continue working with me.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Music is my life. Its all I know. I do this everyday because I love it.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: Do you give the same effort with an A list artist vs. an independent artist? I always give the same effort no matter the project, because I love this and that's the only way I know to work.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: Sometimes I can do things quickly, but you're not paying for the time I spend on the project, you're paying for all the experience that I bring with me. I do quality work.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What are you goals for the project? What are your inspirations? How can I fit in and help you achieve what you're looking for?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: I'm not the cheapest, but I believe in quality. I get things right the first time.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: The ones I own. It's all I really need.

A: I started as an intern in Atlanta for Dallas Austin over 10 years ago in Atlanta.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Nostalgic
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Drake. I love his writing style and I love hits.
