The Recording Experience
Pre-production Phase:
Once the paperwork is completed we will listen to potential songs and set the overall direction of the recording, production timeline, etc. This is very important as it allows for the forming of your sound and deciding the right players (if session musicians/singers are needed), studio, etc.
Phase I:
Tracking is done next (usually in Florida or Nashville, depending on the budget).
Phase II:
The second phase would be the recording of vocals, overdubs and background vocals and any additional editing...Read More

“Nick has got to be one of the most talented producers I have ever known. He has the ability to take your idea for a song and make it come to life. I have worked with Nick on projects for more than 10 years now and all I can say is, QUALITY, PASSION and ANOINTING.”
Roy Fields
Worship Leader, Songwriter
“Nick Coetzee is a world-class producer with whom I have had the pleasure of working on a number of projects. In fact, whenever a TMA client needs a producer, Nick is the first recommendation we make to our artists and bands. Nick is able to tap into a reservoir of creativity the artists many times does not know exists within themselves. TMA recommends Nick Coetzee and Rain Music Studio to anyone who wants to take their music to new levels with a product that can compete without question in the broader marketplace within the music industry.”

Our favorite thing about Nick is that he is very precise. He’s very easy to work with in terms of getting things accomplished and working WITH you on your sound to keep what it is that makes your band unique. He’s fun, and you can tell he loves his job!”
