He shows favortism towards certain artists and its disgusting. Anyone who truly wants to help you get into the music business will not charge you.

If you are a singer or band that wants to get high-quality recordings done and not break your bank,…read morethen pleasepleasePLEASE contact Daniel Martin at Beehive Studios. I needed to get two singles recorded but, like most of us musicians, I was on a budget. For $250 a song, Daniel learned my songs, laid down instrumental tracks for me, mixed, and mastered my songs until they sounded absolutely fantastic. He also provides unlimited studio time to make sure that the songs are done to the customer's complete satisfaction. Did you hear that? UNLIMITED STUDIO TIME FOR A FLAT FEE. The entire time, he was very pleasant, professional, and was every bit of a perfectionist as I was when it came to making the tracks as tight as possible. He'll work with anyone's budget, because unlike many of the other studios out there, he cares much more about creating a quality product for his clients over making a ton of money. He takes great pride in what he does, and it shows in the quality of his work. You can listen to samples of his work here: danielmartinproductions.com And you can listen to the work he did for me here: soundcloud.com/lauren-michelle-hayes Please call him up at 714-396-3002 to schedule your session. You won't be disappointed. :-)

We used Lewis' facility for a project we did for our non-profit music school, The CUT Studios. As a singer/songwriter, I have recorded everywhere from DARP (Dallas Austin) in Atlanta to Universal Recording Studios in LA. Not only did 17th St Recording studios provide a comfortable environment for our students, but the Chandler TG1/Neumann M149 combo didn't hurt either :) Not only was Lewis lightning fast in Pro Tools, but he also contributed immensely to the project, helping to write the bridge and playing guitar/keys/bass on the record. Needless to say, this studio provides much more than just a place to record. You will leave here satisfied. Period.
