ABOUT

Hi, I'm Claude Nine, I am a one man band. I write, create and produce my own original songs and covers in the Neo Soul genre. My music contains hints of Latin, Jazz and Hip Hop influences. I primarily work out of my home studio using DAW, currently Mixcraft 10 Pro Studio. Eventually I would like to upgrade to Ableton Live and/or ProTools. I currently utilize Loopmasters & Splice for my loop library as well as other royalty free and public domain loops online. I am an amateur audio engineer as I produce and master all of my own tracks. Using soundtrap I have collaborated with other producers on a couple of songs. I'm open to working with others. And did I mention I can sing?
