Branching Out Incorporating Ideas Realizing the Dream
Ezekiel, who typically wants to record or make beats, wanted to add some guitar into some production we were working on. When he picked up the instrument, the ideas startedflowing!
Pictured above is a beat that Ezekiel put together using his inspirations such as some “meme” videos on youtube. Using thoseideasweflippedthemintoacoolbeat with some guitar recorded as well. You can check out one of productions on the Franklinsoundcloudpage!
Niveah and Savannah are sisters who love to sing duets together. One of the tracks we are currently working on is a cover of Wondering by Olivia Rodrigo. They have been practicing the song for weeks, and it's almost time to record!
