  I've recorded a few of songs in the past at home studios via people I found on craigslist. It was a mixed bag. Overall, I was okay with the results - This was my first time going to a recording studio and it was a great experience. I researched the engineers on the studio website, read the reviews, and played their samples, I narrowed it down to 4 and wound up going with Lalo AKA TopBoy thinking he was the best fit based on genre of music and how he explained his working style - Great choice on my part! Previous positive reviews I read about him were right. Lalo was awesome, super friendly, letting me know off the bat he is there for me and if I want suggestions, he'll make them but if I don't that is fine too. By the end of the 4 hours we were like two buddies vibing off each other to work the song. (I was there to record vocals, mix & master to recorded music I came with) I'll be going back to Lalo for sure to finish the song and if session 2 goes as well then, I will come back with my next song... No more craigslist for recording for me. The studio communication is primary text/ email - they are fast and enthusiastic to respond.

  Have been recording with Topboy going on 3years & he is the best I’ve worked with. I’ve gone to many different engineers & stopped looking once I worked with him. Nothing but great vibes w when working, consistently recommend him to ALL artist I come across. If he’s not in the studio I won’t record.
