A native San Franciscan, Mars has been producing and releasing music for almost a decade to critical acclaim (Okayplayer, Boiler Room, 2DopeBoyz, Majestic Casual, Soulection Radio). He is extremely versatile in the studio, and can easily play the role of producer, songwriter, session musician, engineer, mixer, or vocal coach, depending on what the client or project needs.
Having spent the majority of his tenure working to develop, and manage independent artists & releases, Mars has a wide-ranging understanding of what it takes to succeed in this ever-shifting industry. He has produced & written for major label artists (Los Rakas, Jahkoy), and composed original music for for hit television shows such as Robot Chicken, MTV Movie Awards, & Dexter.
One of his greatest strengths as a producer is his ability to arrange vocals & instrumentation. Having studied vocal technique, he is adept at helping guide vocalists towards the perfect take. He works similarly with musicians, directing their effortsuntil the part fits perfectly within the sonic landscape. He specializes in R&B, pop, hip-hop, and reggae, but is highly capable of creating in other genres as well.
