ABOUT

My name is Caleb, I go by HellaBeats on be and have nearly 40k subscribers and over 10 million views. I've also worked with Warner Brothers Record's and graduated from Dark Horse Institute as a Certified Audio Engineer. I'm not trying to brag in any way by saying that, I just know there's tons of people who talk a big game but don't really have the the quality music to back it up, and after working with so many people like that over the years, I'm trying to find a really solid group of people to work with for this project my band and I has been working on. I'm currently working on a project with my band members, but we're still needing members to really complete everything. So far we have a drummer, two guitarists (rhythm and lead), a bass player, and a vocalist. A couple months ago the drummer (who's house we all had band practice at), had to move out, and we haven't met up as a full band in over a month and a half. So while we are still technically a band, the only two 100% solid members are my cousin and I, and we are completely open to joining a new band/working with new people if we think there's more potential in it. My cousin and I have been producing metal music together for nearly 6 years, I've been all of the drum programming, adding background synths on certain tracks if needed, and mixing and mastering. My cousin is a very talented guitarist who's been playing for over a decade now. We've had several members work on this EP with us, but recently it's just been my cousin and I producing tracks, and honestly, we get more done when it's just us because when all of the guys get together sometimes they lack focus and we don't end up accomplishing very much, which is why we've been trying to find like minded people who are focused on making the highest quality music possible, and being honest with each other if something doesn't sound right or could be played better. All of our metal tracks are currently unreleased until the EP is 100% mixed and mastered, or "radio ready," We have 8 tracks in total right now, and about 4 or 5 of the tracks so far are 85 - 90% finished other than a few mixing changes that need to be made, or if my cousin thinks something should be rerecorded. I'd love to meet up and work on something, whether it be your music or ours, i'm really open to anything. Also, I know it may not be everyone's cup on tea, but our vocalist is into dubstep a lot, and one of our tracks incorporates that type of style in the intro and transitions to hard rock. It seems like it would never work, but it's actually everyones favorite song of ours. The rest of our tracks could be classified as strictly hard rock/metal though, but we try to be as unique as we can while staying true to the genre. I'm also very humble and easy to work with, i'm not the type of producer that gets upset if you have to do a few extra takes to get it right, all that matters to me is making the best music possible and being as unique and innovative as we can.
