I'm Kevin Janes. I am a music producer and recording engineer born and raised in Louisville, KY.

​

I first started out producing music in 2016 when I downloaded Ableton. From there I started out making "old Kanye" type beats and strictly sampling.

​

I attended college at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, TN where I studied Audio Production and minored in music. Here is where I began learning the basics of recording. While continuing to learn Ableton and Pro Tools alongside each other, I began implementing my saxophone playing skills and musicality in a lot of my hiphop beats.

​

I worked three different internships at three different recording studios while I was in school. 400 Recording in Louisville, KY, Robot Lemon with Reid Shippen in Nashville, and Phantom Studios with Mike Elizondo also in Nashville.

​

From there I was hired as an assistant recording engineer at the Record Plant in Hollywood, CA. So I moved from one music hub to another.

​

While assisting there I worked with Saweetie, Travis Scott, Lotto, Megan Thee Stallion, BIA, Coi Leroy, Maverick City Music, Alesso, Moneybagg Yo, and many more.

​

Now I'm currently working as a freelance engineer in LA working mostly with Usher and LA Reid at Mega.

​

When I produce I try to think the unimaginable and unorthodox. That is how some of the most dope music is made; few limitations and extraordinary creativity.

​

I strive to create inspiration for others.

John Coltrane

"My music is the spiritual expression of what I am - my faith, my knowledge, my being...When you begin to see the possibilities of music, you desire to do something really good for people, to help humanity free itself from its hangups...I want to speak to their souls."
