I've recorded a few of songs in the past at home studios via people I found on craigslist. It was a mixed bag. Overall, I was okay with the results - This was my first time going to a recording studio and it was a great experience. I researched the engineers on the Mix / Zoom website, read the reviews, and played their samples, I narrowed it down to 4 and wound up going with Lalo AKA TopBoy thinking he was the best fit based on genre of music and how he explained his working style - Great choice on my part! Previous positive reviews I read about him were right. Lalo was awesome, super friendly, letting me know off the bat he is there for me and if I want suggestions, he'll make them but if I don't that is fine too. By the end of the 4 hours we were like two buddies vibing off each other to work the song. (I was there to record vocals, mix & master to recorded music I came with) I'll be going back to Lalo for sure to finish the song and if session 2 goes as well then, I will come back with my next song... No more craigslist for recording for me. The studio communication is primary text/ email - they are fast and enthusiastic to respond.

Have been recording with Topboy going on 3years & he is the best I’ve worked with. I’ve gone to many different engineers & stopped looking once I worked with him. Nothing but great vibes w when working, consistently recommend him to ALL artist I come across. If he’s not in the studio I won’t record.

It usually takes around 2 hours for me to do a song but with Topboy, we knocked out 4 songs in 4 hours. He works very efficiently while ensuring great quality which is extremely rare. He also gave various pointers regarding my delivery that also improved the quality of the songs we did. I would highly recommend booking a session with him!

Lazaro Trinidad
I was a bit nervous because this was my first time going to a Studio. I did my research to what I was looking for and who I wanted to work with. I honestly made the right choice working with TOPBOY. He was patient, he listened to my ideas, he made sure I was happy with the work being done, and he is the type of person who has genuine work ethic and drive for his passion. A person like that is hard to find now and days. I have a more projects I would love to come back and work with him and collaborate with is creative mind and skill. Thank you Lalo "TopBoy"

had such a great experience at MIX !! worked with Lalo (aka TOPBOY) & instantly felt very welcomed n comfortable enough to share my ideas and visions for a song. it was my first time ever in a professional recording studio, but Lalo was extremely open- minded & kindly guided me throughout the whole process. he's incredibly creative, talented at what he does, very encouraging, easy to get along with and overall, a really cool & fun person to be around, while also still having great professionalism. would definitely love to work with him again! my experience at MIX is an unforgettable one. gorgeous, very spacious and comfortable rooms - lighting set up is stunning and it promotes a professional environment + gets you into work mode (fun version).

LALO | TOPBOY is the best
recording and his mixing and
mastering skills are flawless. I was
able to get a same day session booked
and the recording was fun and was
perfectly smooth. 10/10 recommend to
everyone!
Hollie Sara
Lalo was great! This was my first
time in a recording studio, and I was
pretty apprehensive about putting
together a song/sharing my music with
others. He went above and beyond to
help bring the song together, answer
any questions I had, and make the
session as welcoming/non-judgemental as possible. Would definitely recommend.
Timaiah smith
One of the greatest engineers I’ve ever worked with. He has an
amazing ear and made the recording process seamless. I’m so
grateful | got the opportunity to work with him. Looking forward
to working with him again. Truly a rising star!
Anthony Melendi
My first time recording at a studio he was very accommodating and open to collaborations.
He was instrumental to the track. I will definitely becoming back
daniel Stevens
Didn't know what to expect but I can honestly say that Lalo has so much talent with engineering, he helped me tweak my song into such a vibe and I love how he tells you when something doesn't sound good so that you can make it as perfect as possible, I was so nervous getting back into music but working with lalo took away the nervousness and motivated me even further to go farther, the project we worked on sounds like a masterpiece thanks to his skills!
