Case Studies

NAME: Men In My Head

HOMETOWN: Brooklyn, NY

CHALLENGE: MIMH needed to revamp their sound and their style as a full band for their second CD, so they came to SkyeLab to work with Arty Skye.

SOLUTION: We helped create a new sound for the band by incorporating horns and keyboards into their sound and tightening up the band. We produced, mixed and mastered their second full-length CD. SkyeLab matched them with an image consultant and photographer and created a new polished look for MIMH. Our marketing team had the album reviewed, had Youtube videos made and helped book gigs for the band in NY.

RESULT: Since the album release on iTunes they have been steadily selling and are frequently playing gigs in and around the NYC area.

#1 On Billboard Hot Single Sales Chart for 21 weeks in 2013. #1 Selling CD Single of 2013 with the song Survivor Tree.

Ken C. test jump

SOLUTION: We found the genre that would best work for him, which was dance/pop. SkyeLab then wrote and produced original tracks, found the best songwriters for the tracks to write lyrics and melodies, and then mixed and mastered his full-length album. We utilized some popular DJ/dance producers to create 5 re-mixes for the album as well. With Ken we also coordinated the photography and artwork for his CD, and began a marketing and promotion campaign.

RESULT: The CD has been released in February 2011 to a great reception.
