Granted Records, Tustin CA

This studio will give you a good recording experience. First, it's affordable. The least expensive studio in OC. Quality is not sacrificed. Emo is a professional with his digital recording software. I've been in there doing vocals, having to be punched in and out, and Emo handles it. He's friendly too. I'm offered coffee and water. And we get started right away. Emo definitely has the can do and will do mentality in his sessions. I can't say enough good things about this business. Recorded three hits here already and headed back for a fourth.

As a seasoned recording artist I've experienced much. Emo and Granted superceded my expectations. 3 words. Efficient, Intuitive and Adaptive. Don't believe me.listen to their master piece w @thelivingghostsband/everywhere!

Recording at Granted Records was an amazing experience for The Living Ghosts. Emo is an incredibly talented producer who churns out top of the line mixes. He is a dedicated professional who has built his brand on great customer service. Worth every penny, will definitely record at Granted in the future!

This is the lead singer dallas brown from the living ghosts. First off I want to say that emo is a magician when it comes to production. He is so attentive, helpful, and insightful. It was a true experience being able to work with such a High caliber producer such as himself at granted records. He was a huge part of our success and nurture to our near perfect album. Thank you granted records and Emo!

I had the very best studio experience with Granted Records and producer Emad Alaeddin. This was my very first time recording, and I felt confident and encouraged from start to finish. I had a zoom with Emad the week prior where we discussed my song of choice, and from my lyrics and melody, he built the chord progression and from there he layered all the necessary music and percussion and my song was born. It was incredibly helpful to have two tracks at the end of that zoom session, one with the lyrics and one with out, from those scratch recordings I was able to practice, makes notes, and prepare myself for studio time! Emad is such a calm, and inspiring instructor, I have never felt nervous to sing in his presence and he truly brings out the best vocal performances. He gives great feedback, but he really wants you to steer the ship and let him know your opinion on the direction you want your music to go. That and who wouldn't want a producer who calls you "Rockstar" even if I am far from! Even after my song was mixed and mastered, and I mentioned a small part that I was concerned about, he jumped right in to listen and adjust it to my liking. Emad is just so amazing and professional, if you are looking to record an album, or a single, or just work on vocal techniques, I highly recommend Granted Records and Emad Alaeddin, just a solid five star experience.

Granted Records and Emo are exceptionally skilled and talented in recording and producing independent artists music. Superb. Listens to the clients needs and delivers results timely. Great communication between Emo and our artists. The best in the OC area I’ve seen in 20 years in the music industry. Works great with child artists at well. Thanks Emo!

I am so glad that I found Emo on Thumbtack! I was searching for someone to make some complex edits for a high school pep rally dance routine. Although the theme was an extremely tough one to work with, he was able to create a great mix for us in a very short amount of time. He also made adjustments for me after I heard the track and made sure to get the job done! He was extremely responsive and easy to work with. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

I took an Adobe Lightroom Bootcamp with Jon C. Haverstick yesterday and I just have to say I was so impressed with him! I’m not a technical photographer but he breaks down everything in such a simple and practical way that it’s easy to understand. He’s also incredible patient and calm with the students and you’re not afraid to ask questions of him!
I honestly can’t wait to sign up for another class with him! Oh and by the way, he’s an amazing photographer too!
