I produced this album with Puerto Rico based artist MIMA back in 2011. It was my first go at indie rock production and it's one of the works I'm most proud of. Incredible album from this artist!

Ragga Muffin Style
by Young Ragga
This was a record I recorded and produced back in 2009. It's the last project I made before starting work on ÌFÉ. Excited to see it finally go to vinyl! It's something of a classic in Puerto Rico.
