Peter Jericho Single – “BODI” (Produced By Covelli)

Here’s a link to the single, “BODI”, I produced for Peter Jericho’s upcoming album “First Generation” – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv29_X0XVNo

Peter Jericho is currently working on his new album “First Generation” where “Bodi” the new single debuts.

Not only was he reunited with his family and old friends but he found himself inspired by the music and immersed in the culture. Read more

ASCAP EXPO 2012

I finally decided to dive in and take the journey out to the ASCAP Expo this year. It truly was a rewarding and learning experience. I linked up with a TON of talented artists, producers, business folk, and creators. It was also nice to see some familiar faces from the iStandard Producers crew. Shot out to Brother El from the Makers of Sense, Amy Rodd, and anyone else who kept in contact. Needless to say, I plan on going back next year and every year after. So hit me up if you plan on going next year or want to see some of the highlights I have on DVD now from it. Highlights including Bruno Mars and the rest of The Smeezingtons talking about coming up as writers and their creative process, The Writer’s Jam where songwriters like Priscilla Renea sing their recent hit songs that are performed by some of today’s biggest artists, Ryan Tedder, and of course the mega Production duo Stargate (Katy Perry, Wiz Khalifa – Black & Yellow, and more)

Now for pics!

2011 Chicago Beat Battle Winner

I recently took part in the 2011 iStandardProducers beat battle here in Chicago. I’ll never forget the night, it was crazy. I went last year to check out the show when Bliz Beats won. I knew I was going to enter the next one. People came out through the rain to pack the house, and I met a lot of the producers I was competing against. We are all on a similar path so even though we are competing, there is still a sense of community between all the producers.

I wasn’t really nervous when I finally went on stage, even though it was my first beat battle. I’m confident in my sounds and just wanted to show everyone the variety of genres I can move the crowd with. The elimination was the insane part. To have the top three separated by one point just shows how much talent Chicago and iStandard has.

The prizes for winning varied from musical goodies to a few interviews and entrance into the national Battle of the Beats in New York. The first interview is on the iStandard website already – sendspace.

There is an official video on the way but below is some footage from the event from a camera phone lol. Read more
