My friend Travis Neal has been signed to Century Media in the band “Divine Heresy”, Travis and I completed “Liars Portrait”, a new CD on Beat Chamber Records. “Liars Portrait” is all commercial and heavy rock, Brian Roche played drums on this CD. We are very proud of these songs… In early 2009 I started working with Dino Cazares on Divine Heresy’s new CD “Bringer of Plagues”. I recorded Dino’s guitars for the demos and that turned into me arranging 2 Orchestral Pieces for the album. “Undivine Prophecies” and “The End Begins” on “Bringer of Plagues” are both my orchestral arrangements, this is a really great CD, I am very proud to have been a part of it. Another band that I work with is Burn, I have been mixing and co producing them since 2008. In 2009 I mixed, mastered and helped co produce “Menu 4 Love”. “Menu 4 Love” has been getting lots of radio play on XM/Sirius Satellite radio recently. I work with several other talented singers, songwriters and Hip Hop artists including Travis Neal, Erkia Miranda, Jenny Collins, Michael Mulder, KT Scene, Ethiks and more... I am always looking for new talent to work with so if you think I can help you please send me an email. I have a nice home studio where I use Pro Tools, Logic, Reason, UAD plugins, Massey plugins, Waves plugins, etc. I have many great mics including Royers, Mojaves and outboard pres and compressors by Millenia Media, Summit Audio, Royer, A Designs DBX, etc. I can program drums using BFD2, Stylus RMX, EZ Drummer, etc. My soft synths include Omnisphere, Absynth, Evolve, Atmosphere, etc. I can start from scratch and end with a finished product or anywhere in between. Also I play guitar and bass. I played guitar on many of the songs on this website, bass on many of them. I have recorded guitar for Deon Evans (producer for Tupac Shakur, Digital Underground, etc.) and many others. I also work with a drummer who has a very nice studio, if you need drums on your project for an affordable price this is a great option. If you are not in the Los Angeles area we can work over the internet via yousendit or my FTP server. Find Jonathan on myspace - www.myspace.com/jonathanmerkel |
