Shingo, as an artist, has released one solo record and is working on a follow-up. His band, Ovall, has released several of its own albums. Besides these endeavors, Shingo composes, produces, and arranges music for other artists as well as TV, film, and advertising projects.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shingo considers himself a track-maker, in that he produces his music using Logic Pro and adds live instruments as needed. In the case of his trio Ovall, they build their music on hip-hop beats and then add live flavors of jazz, soul, and rock to create their unique fusion. The success of the group has led each of the members into successful solo careers as producers and musicians. The group continues to be a foundation for the members and they often reunite to work on Ovall projects, even amidst their busy solo careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shingo prefers to work in the comfort of his home studio, based around Logic Pro and his beloved Focal monitors. A typical production project for him involves creating or receiving a demo track for a song and then building the demo into a finished production using soft-synths, samples, and live-playing when its called for. Shingo plays most of the parts himself, including bass, keyboards, and guitar. Shingo\u2019s studio boasts a Rhodes suitcase and Moog synthesizer. For advertising work, the work usually starts and ends in his private studio, while larger projects often utilize outside studios for instrumental tracking, mixing, and mastering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We spoke to Shingo about his style and workflow and he shared some information about his setup and production style. \u201cThe way I produce music is a mix of live performance, programming, and sampling.\u201d Shingo continues, \u201cI aim for a hybrid sound, created with a hip-hop feel and played from a musician\u2019s point-of-view.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shingo credits Meshell Ndegeocello as a big musical influence and enjoys interacting and building relationships with other musicians and artists. While his studio covers just ten square meters, he has installed acoustic treatment to control first-reflections and he utilizes Sonarworks Reference 4 to maintain a dependable monitoring environment. \u201cMy studio is where I can be most relaxed and focused, so I try to keep it comfortable rather than to focus on specifications as a studio,\u201d Shingo says. \u201cSince the studio has no subwoofer installed, it is rather difficult to check sub lows, which you have to deal with considering Japan&#8217;s housing situation, but If I want to check the lows more closely, I use our label\u2019s studio or outside studios, where you can turn up the volume and listen to it as much as you want.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo-1000x750.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6320\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo-1000x750.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=1000 1000w, https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo-200x150.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=200 200w, https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo-400x300.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=400 400w, https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo-768x576.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=768 768w, https:\/\/blog-uploads.imgix.net\/2020\/09\/shingo.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=1200 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some details about Shingo\u2019s studio setup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DAW:<\/strong> \u201cI have always used Logic Pro\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Interface:<\/strong> Apogee Ensemble Thunderbolt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monitors: <\/strong>Focal Shape 50s and Audio Technica ATH-M50.
