Transparent, talented, kind & open. A true west county gem…read more I recorded my first album at Earthtones with my producer, Scott Elliot Ferreter, and David -- who handled drums, recording, mixing, and mastering. Most of the record came together over a few focused days, with a handful of extra sessions as it took shape. From our first conversation about the project, David's calm, grounded presence made it easy for me to drop in, trust the process, and create. His studio feels like stepping out of time -- a clean, cozy den where creativity flows freely. David has an intuitive sense of energy. He knew when to step back and let the process unfold, and when to lean in and spark something new. I was continually impressed by his ability to stay so present and attentive through long recording days. He's also an excellent communicator -- transparent with his hours and pricing, and genuinely invested in the music. David has this quiet, steady work ethic that seriously inspires me. He brings warmth, care, and professionalism to everything he touches. If you're looking for someone who brings both heart & precision to the studio, David is your guy. I can't recommend him enough.

I'm in the midst of releasing my first single, and it wouldn't be happening without David…read more From our first meeting, I knew working with him would be easy, fun, and productive. And it was! First off, his recording space is incredible. Excellent gear, excellent taste, and pristine attention to detail so that you can just record and not worry about the technicals. He also provided drums on my track, and he was able to dial in the right drum sounds very quickly. He's clearly a skilled drummer, but I also appreciated how easy it was to give him direction and riff back and forth until the style felt right. While recording, he was very encouraging, but knew when to push when he wanted to try something or felt like the recording could be better. Can't ask for much else. For mixing and mastering, he was really detail-oriented while still holding the larger vision of the song, and was very generous with his time (he didn't bill me for experimentation he did). He was also just budget-conscious in general and checked in more than once about time. Overall, it was surprisingly easy to let my control-freak stuff go because I had full confidence in David's ability to deliver a high quality product. Wouldn't hesitate to work with him again, and neither should you!

I feel so fortunate to work with Strawberry Hill Music…read more I'm a singer / songwriter in the Bay Area and have been so frustrated with many disingenuous producers. When I started working with Raj and the Strawberry Hill Music team, everything changed. He really listens to what I want, is respectful, honest, and authentic. And, he has a great ear. He makes me feel at home in the studio; I'm never rushed or pressured. And, the production is top quality. I highly recommend Strawberry Hill Music.

I just searched "music studio near me" on Google and this place popped up. I took a chance with them and it's probably the best decision I've made this year. I've gotten more done In the past 3 months than I have in the last 4 years. I've recorded 4 hip hop EPs and working on an album as we speak and it's all A grade quality work. Dj BigVince and Kadin are super talented engineers who specialize in mixing and mastering. They work their magic to make tracks sound professional and polished. I was impressed with their attention to detail and high level expertise. The founder, Chris Cash, is the real deal. He's a multi-talented artist who can sing, rap, engineer, and make beats. His passion and dedication to music is so apparent everytime I work with him. Whether you need a few songs or a full project, Chris and his team have you covered. Just so you have an idea of Jungle Life Studio services, they offer: recording, music production, songwriting, mixing and mastering, live DJ services, and video recording/editing. Literally a one stop shop!
