Hey yo I'm Clarissa and I hope to become a music producer/audio engineer in the future. I love almost all genres of music but I strive to make dance/mainstream. AP Langsta ✌

Fernando Garibay: Up and Coming Music Producer
Fernando Garibay is a hit-making music producer signed to Interscope Records. With the skills of playing guitar, piano, bass, and drums, he produces tracks for numerous artists. Although Garibay is not famous, you have probably heard his work without knowing it's his. Britney Spears, U2, and Lady Gaga are just a few artists he works with. Garibay has worked with Gaga numerous times. He accomplished taking the role of musical director on her newest album "Born This Way," including dance hits like 'The Edge of Glory" and "Born This Way." Unlike other audio engineers and producers, Fernando has the ability to mix genres within his tracks. For example, in Lady Gaga's "Dance In The Dark," a deep beat pounds throughout the song, giving it a dark, dance vibe. Guitar and voltage-like synths also darken the track adding a metal/rock sound. Although the song may appear dark and mysterious, Garibay applies excessively held piano synths and short bell-like synths to lighten the track. This sound allows the song to still be categorized as mainstream dance music. You can most likely recognize a song produced by Fernando with his use of different genres intertwined throughout the track.
