The projects sound wouldn’t have been right if I didn’t get the help from @castleengineers to mix and master the whole thing. Thank you for trusting my 100+ stem songs and weird vocal arrangements. 🫡🤎
Respect and do right by your producers, engineers, and vocalists/writers! Your team is a group of people that are capable of amazing things, but they’re still people.

Went back home for mom’s 1 year anniversary. Miss you ma, you would’ve love to see these photos 💙 BMM
Bittersweet, but still an unforgettable trip
Some recent projects & artists we’ve been working with! Had a blast over the past couple of months locking in with such incredible talent and installing a new 1073 at the studio! (Thanks Brett!) - Cristian “Castle” Castillo

Never expected to be spending my birthday honoring your last wishes. All you wanted was to be back home and I was honored to be there with you every step of the way. You’re not here to see me blow out the candles anymore, but I’m happy knowing that you’re finally at peace.
Love and miss you ma ❤️
