hi, i'm alex!
thanks for visitng my website. as is often the case, i began recording myself and my friends at home as a teenager, and later solidified my studio knowledge at blackbird studios acdemy in nashville, tn. after some brief time in nashville going to school and playing in bands i moved to la in 2018, wanting some of that legendary californian sun and following in the paths of many of my heroes.
i got a job at record plant studios as a runner and was quickly promoted to assistant, and then engineer. there, i entered an amazing chapter, working with the finest artists, producers, and fellow engineers. record plant introduced me to many amazing people with whom i've formed amazing relationships, in additional to getting to work on some great records.
one day at record plant, travis scott needed an engineer. we ended up working together for 9 months on what would become "utopia." since then, i've worked across a wide array of genres, with great artists like channel tres, willow smith, jon batiste, trippie redd, annika bennett, and more. in 2025, after recording absolutely's sophomore album "paracosm," we embarked on a north american tour, with me running monitors and vocal processing. it was a great success. around this time i was also honored to join the recording academy, where i'm a grammy voting member.
around 2020 i also fell in love with the deeper shades of dance music and vinyl dj'ing. i was launched into a new landscape of sounds, tones, textures and worlds. wanting to learn where these sounds and moods came from i jumped into the world of modular synthesizers and other classic 90's house/techno production techniques, coupled with a constant search for the deepest european wax.
when i'm not playing, recording, mixing, or dj'ing music, you'll frequently find me camping or exploring nature. luckily in southern california, many of these activities are not exclusive!
i'd love to hear about your project or other musical/audio needs you may have. or if you just want to talk vinyl, camping, or coffee, drop me a line below.
cheers,
alex
