Being that I am from a small town, I booked a session with Devan simply just to talk music, receive advice, talk progression, and show some of my own songs along with some production. Right off the bat the conversation was anything BUT surface level. Devan’s professionalism was minding blowing and his patience and work ethic gave me some new found inspiration. Talking with Devan opened my mind even more to believing in who I strive to become in the music. Looking forward to more sessions at 8th wonder studios in the future to begin some fresh content. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend.

Devan was absolutely welcoming and made us feel comfortable as we recorded. He is extremely knowledgeable in music and went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied with the sound of our track. Will definitely come back again!

We hired 8W for vocal processing. We needed our vocal track tuned and sauced up, while still being able to hear the vocalists natural voice. Eighth Wonder captured exactly that, and we are super stoked on what he did! He responds very quickly and got the task done within a day! Looking forward to working on future projects with him! Thank you! 🤘🏻

Great session. I had an idea in my head, and he was able to bring this into life. Mixing was done efficiently, and still held the standard of quality I was hoping for. I would definitely give my experience a 5/5. He made the session very comfortable and we had great conversation.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was in the Army for 8 years… I learned patience, determination and commitment. It was my pre-cursor training to becoming an engineer and living my dream to work in music full time. Couple that experience with my Audio Engineering Certificate from Musicians Institute and School of Audio Engineering (SAE) and D1 productions was born.
