About
Rico(Chief Engineer): For the last 15 years, music and sound engineering is what I have been doing every single day, most days from morning till night. I LOVE WHAT I DO! Everyone knows or can imagine just how good anyone can become at anything after that long of a period of dedication and passion. I also think out of the box and over the years have developed new innovative techniques and ways to make all recordings sound their best very quickly! I also start mixing during the recording process and never waste any time! But beyond all that, its about how you are treated and I treat everyone with respect and my goal is for my clients to feel 100% comfortable in a very creative environment.

I've been going to Rico's studio for over 10yrs, and I'm damm sure going for 10 more. He get's me where I need to be before I know where I need to be, he's fast and able to produce a higher quality of sound than any other studio that I've been in. Rico is constantly progressing and keeping up to date with the rapid movement of technological advances in studio programs & equipment. He's the best all around.

If your looking for a place with the best of the best studio equipment and a super producer then the sound theory and Rico is your man.I have been doing music for over 12 years now and have been to countless studios but nothing ever seems to compare to the sound theory!Rico has an ear for music that I have never seen in another person.He has truly made my music sound 100% better and has made me step it up as an artist.His rates are really reasonable and he is always working on your stuff even if you take a break he stays on it at the same time keeping it professional and giving the artist the attention and feedback they need.Holler at Rico and tell him Fatdoo sent you I promise you will not be dissapointed!

RIco one of the beat engineers ive EVER worked with. His knowledge of knowing what you need to make your sound more platinum is cruicial for ANYONE trying to make it in the music industry. His musical ability is also what is key. The ability to hear tracks and know vocal pitches and timing are off, HELPS a great deal when recording. This place is cozy, and very professional. All sessions are private and you can expect the best when you come here

I've had the privilege of working with Rico for a good 5 years here in the Bay Area when he was Bangin out tracks & Mixing & Mastering out of his plush Apocalypse Recording Studios (A.R.S.) Always professional & upfront, this guy's a genius when it comes to sound & delivery. SoCal is lucky to have you Bro & I wish you the best but I'd still do whatever it took to bring you back home HAHA!
