Joey Cutless The Man Behind The Beats
On Monday April 21, 2014 I had the chance to interview indie super producer Joey Cutless the man behind the beats. He has been producing tracks for tv shows, signed artists, indie artists and helping to educate thousands on the music business for years now. Joey Cutless was not only humble and laid back, but this guy knows music hands down from the proper placement of snare drum patterns to beat bpm's he's got beat creation down packed. You don't have to take my word for it just ask one of his 150,000 twitter followers.
For alot of people just making beats is enough but For Joey Cutless it never was, he has also learned and started to provide his services for production, mixing and mastering for artists that need it.
Joey Cutless Interview
So now let's get to the good part the moment you have all been waiting for the epic interview that took place last night with none other then joey cutless.
1. At what age did you start making beats?
I was rapping at 14 so basically once I learned how to make beats I startedmaking them for myself to rap on probably around 16.
2. What is your motivation as a producer?
Just providing for my family and being and doing new things that leave new business strategies or tactics for future producers.
3. How would you describe your beat making style?
My beat making style is very spontaneous. I pretty much am capable of using any production strategy. One day I'm playing on a 88 key keyboard and layering a track heavily. Then maybe later on that day I'm chopping some samples from records and adding a kick, snare, and not much else. It's all about what sounds good in the moment.
4. What is your favorite record that you produced and why is it your favorite?
Hmm.. I don't have a favorite to be honest. I've got 300 beats on my website, about 400 on my computer that no one has ever heard, another 500 on tv shows that rent online and a ton of songs I produced for small and big names alike. Honestly if I had favorites I have forgotten about them lol.
5. Who is the one artist that you want to work with in the industry today?
Jay-Z, Outkast, Nas, Bone Thugs and Harmony (all 5 members)
6.Where do you see yourself industry wise in the next year?
I'm moving to the executive side of things more, developing artists and using some of my relationships to put some talented artists on. The one's who deserve it and who have been working hard of course.
7, What production equipment or brand do you prefer to create music on?
I use Reason mostly, but also cubase. Fl Studio and I also use a Roland MV8000 which I will never get rid of, even though everything is software based now.
