No matter what happens today, nobody can ever take this from us. No matter what happens today, as crazy as it may seem, this is still just the beginning. 🏆
We’re proud to announce that @handkraftedstudios has been voted the best studio in the valley by @phxmagazine ! 🥇
We officially have the #1 recording studio in the 4th largest city in the country. It’s hard to believe it all started in @briangigerich ’s garage over a decade ago. Between recording and mixing for platinum/gold selling artists, cranking out over a dozen billboard charting albums and helping shape the sound of the Arizona music scene; we’ve been consistently growing bigger and better every year we’ve been in business. Both of us would like to thank all of our loyal clients that continue to trust us with their music and creative vision. This achievement wouldn’t be possible without you! 🙏🏻
Ask the artists that work with us about their experience and they’ll tell you, “When you’re working with @bagoftrickscat or @briangigerich you’re working with the best.”
This is the 7th time this has happened since 2016 and it still hasn’t gotten old. 💿
Thank you for the love and support that make these moments possible.
“Give me a challenge, I’ll take it and spin it” 🌀

I went straight to the studio after I got home from the Grammys. Since then I’ve mixed the score for @basicthefilm , which is part of the official selection for @sxsw this year, along with so many songs I lost count. I haven’t had a day off yet, but being this busy is a blessing. Thank you for trusting me with your music. 🔊

To My brother Felix:
My engineer for over 10 years. Thats a long time… so you’re basically like my therapist. The person that pushes me to the very limits of what I think I can do. A good engineer listens but also makes suggestions when needed… and is much more than just a button pusher. You’re like my sonic translator, who helps me capture these weird, wacky and adventurous thoughts that run through my head.
This Grammy journey doesn’t happen without you. The long sessions, the sacrifices, the faith when momentum wasn’t guaranteed… my man, you showed up every time, not just with skill and talent, but with belief in the music and in me.
We didn’t come home with the trophy this time, but we won. We made something honest, joyful, and meaningful, and DOPE….and something that lasts forever. I’m incredibly proud of what we built together.
You want more for me than I even want for myself most days. You believe I can do things I’m not even sure I can do.
There’s not a lot of people in this world that can begin to understand the relationship between an artist and engineer, it’s really special…. Like a barber probably, maybe even more special.
Thank you for believing. Thank you for sacrificing. Proud to walk this path with you. Onward. Forever.

Congratulations to @fyutch & @auravsings on this historic win! At 8 years old, Aura is now the youngest artist to ever win a Grammy! 😱
I was blessed to have mixed 3 songs and mastered 9 on their Grammy award winning album, Harmony. Thank you for trusting me with those records! 🙏🏻
