Jazz & Hip Hop-written and performed by Andrew Megantz. "Richard Ash is a great producer/recording engineer. I usually have a very specific idea in mind for how I want my compositions to sound and Richard was always adept at realizing my vision. No matter what that problem was—micing an accordion, getting a digital bass to gel with acoustic drums, or blending freshly-recorded drums into an old, heavily tape-processed instrumental—Richard took care of it. As a musician himself, he respects the compositional process. I never felt like he tried to “impose his will” on my tracks; rather, his advice on mixing, arranging and other recording tactics was always helpful and non-intrusive. As a result, we created some tracks that I’m really happy with and that I feel are an accurate representation of what previously was only a jumble of notes in my head, which I think is the greatest compliment a musician can give to his or her engineer."

Neo Soul-"Work" a soulful rework of the A$AP Ferg song. "I'm very pleased with the mixing job Richard did for the track "Work". The song began as an instrumental remix I produced of the song "Work" by the artist A$AP Ferg. Featured on vocals is San Francisco based Katya Bitar. All the recorded vocals were improvised. Kyle O'brien is featured on Mandolin, and all of his recordings were improvised as well. After recording various takes of vocals and mandolin, I sent the session files to Richard, and he edited and mixed the song to completion. Considering the less-than-ideal recording environment that was available, the vocals ended up sounding really nice! Overall I'm very happy with how the track ended up sounding."
