"Hi! I’m Sterling, professionally known as Shy Martian, a Los Angeles-based music producer and audio engineer with over 10 years of experience creating, recording, mixing, and mastering music across hip-hop, R&B, and pop. I’ve worked on high-profile projects including Lil Baby’s platinum album as an assistant engineer and as recording engineer for Fuerza Regida, along with collaborations with artists like CamDaGuapo, 03 Greedo, and Fenix Flexin. My credits include engineering, mixing, mastering, and producing tracks such as, BLUNTS & WHISKEY, OUSSIDE, and MAJESTIC.

I’m proficient in Logic Pro, Pro Tools, and a variety of mixing and production software tools. I take a hands-on, project-based approach to tutoring, teaching students from beginners to intermediate levels. Lessons are offered at my professional studio or online, giving students practical experience while learning beat-making, sound design, arrangement, mixing, mastering, and workflow techniques. My goal is to help students produce tracks that sound professional and release-ready while building confidence in their skills.

Whether your goal is to make beats, record your own vocals, or release music to streaming platforms, I provide personalized sessions designed to help you achieve your creative vision and improve with every session." less...
