Using JD's versatility as a writer, composer, keyboard player, innovative guitarist and monster bass player - as well as the backup of a team of accomplished professionals - the studio can work with anything from completed songs that need distinguishing riffs, added finesse and mastering, to a song with only lyrics, chords or an idea for a melody line. All genres are welcome, and the studio's productions include hip-hop, rock, punk, Latin, heavy metal, jazz, country, ska and others.
European singers and musicians in particular will appreciate the open-minded approach to the studio's musicianship and original, music-by-design, "architectural" vision.
Artists need to know the pros and cons of what they're getting into.
They need to have a positive experience in
the studio and get their artistry truly captured.
But they may also need someone who can teach them the language of music, the language of recording, and how to succeed at the recording process.
If a producer really cares about an artist and their music, he's going to give them some life lessons, too, and teach them what's going on in the business and how to make their sound fresh and appealing to a modern audience. Plus, artists need to learn how to get their music out there, especially now that the whole industry has changed."

While a number of studios have a reputation for rolling out the red carpet for big stars while giving lesser known talents the cold shoulder, Dixson doesn't worry about being jaded by his studio's successes, which include movie scores and music for TV shows such as Access Hollywood, and a number of guitar-related endorsements. He maintains an old-fashioned humility, and stays focused on his purpose to help artists succeed in - and after - their studio experience.
"What matters to the artist who comes to me with their unique vision is the quality of the song - they want songs that sound great. My purpose is to give the artist their best experience in recording while bringing out the highest quality of their songs. That's why I treat everyone like they are multi-platinum stars. I help them find the fresh, modern sound they want, and then I help them move ahead, push forward and get exposed. I help them get their career going and get career success."
