The past couple of weeks have been a long game of catch up – no wonder Americans take such few vacations. After a month of vacation in Spain and writing in London, I find myself digging through piles of songs to produce and artists to develop. A few updates from the studios of Hood Famous Music…

Michael Lynche and I have been finishing up the last couple of songs that will lead us to shopping him a deal. If you haven’t been introduced to the musical stylings of “The King”, I’ll be posting some of his tracks on the new audio section of this blog… coming soon. I’ll be multi-tasking as Music Director and DJ for Michael, stepping out on the decks for the live show. Keep an eye out, you won’t want to miss that show.

In an industry relentless in it’s demand for fresh sounds and styles, it is critical for recording artists, television and film producers, and trend setting brands to seek original and imaginative talent in writing and producing in order to stay current. With twelve years of touring and production experience and a singularly unique creative vision, Ming has established a reputation as an enduring source for fresh and distinctive sounds.

As one half of the seminal break beat duo Ming+FS, Ming has been a driving force in the international electronica movement for over ten years. From 1996 to 2006, they carved out an indelible space in the landscape of future music. With four full length artists albums, over thirty 12”s, and countless remixes, Ming+FS converted skeptics and amazed newcomers. With their reputation preceding them, the duo shared the stage with some of the most adventurous names in music, including Run DMC, Moby, Sting, Paul Oakenfold, Kruder & Dorfmeister, and The Roots.

As a solo writer/producer, Ming’s career has been equally successful. Artists such as P-Diddy (Bad Boy Entertainment) and The Cheetah Girls (Disney) trust Ming’s innovative studio abilities to create chart-topping hits, while progressive companies and trend setting brands have sought out Ming for his talents in the latest production styles and sounds design.

Ming’s music has been featured in hugely popular television series such as CSI: NY, CSI: Miami, Sex In The City, Showtime’s Weeds, BBC America’s series Dinner Take All (title score and cues) and the BBC/TLC series Travel Spies (title score and cues). A big fan of his distinctive style, MTV regularly calls on Ming for exclusive tracks for their hit shows The Real World, Cribs, Becoming, and Beauty at the Beach.

Recognizing his popular appeal, Sony has relied on Ming to provide background tracks for their PlayStation games Wipeout Pure and Tourist Trophy. EA Sports has also used original tracks from Ming+FS in their game NBA Ballers.

With the launch of Hood Famous Music, Ming’s unique abilities have been gathered under one roof. Drawing from Ming’s inimitable studio talents, touring and production experience, and a wealth of music industry connections, Hood Famous Music provides dynamic talent development and music writing/production for upcoming artists and publishing for original songwriters.
