About Marcos
Holding a BA in Music Production from the BIMM Institute helped me codify how I write songs. Music is communication.
I have spent 10 years producing and teaching songwriting to hobbyists, adult learners, and intermediate producers. My philosophy is that finishing is perfecting, so I push you to move quickly from a spark to a finished record.
I remember my own early attempts at lyricism and how hard it was to find the right imagery without sounding cliché. Writing is a craft that requires constant attention to detail and a willingness to cut what does not serve the song.
I bring 10 years of experience to every session to help you refine your process. My goal is to ensure you feel confident navigating chord progressions and melodic phrasing. I prefer a direct conversation about your lyrics and concepts rather than abstract theory. Let us get your ideas out of your notebook and into a real, structured format that captures your intent.

Writing the perfect song often requires ignoring your first instinct. You need to focus on the grit of the storytelling rather than just the prettiness of the melody. Hobbyists and adult learners gain the most by treating their writing time like a professional commitment to a brief. Over 10 years, I have found that structured concept development and tight melodic phrasing deliver the best results.
We build your skills in harmony and song structure through hands-on practice in every session. It is the only way to move forward.
