Anyone who has worked with us at The Cutting Room knows that our experienced staff play an essential role in providing a top notch recording experience. Today, on International Women’s Day, we want to highlight a few of the women on our team who help make The Cutting Room, one of the best recording studios in New York.
Our lead engineer, Zukye, is one of the most talented and hardest working engineers in the city, which is why she’s our first call for major label and premiere independent clients. She also works closely to mentor our assistant engineers and volunteers, to prepare them for their journey throughout the industry.
Engineer Adanze started with us as an intern while finishing school, and has since become a core member of our team, with a diverse skillset both as a session engineer, as well as a writer and vocalist.
Our general assistant Shell brings a level of hospitality that always keeps the space feeling lively and inviting.
We’d also like to make a special shout-out to Kia Shavon AKA The Mix Artist, who we can always count on to save the day when those last minute sessions come up, and to our volunteer Thalia, who has been able to use our studio as a launching pad to start her career in the music industry. We are so grateful for the opportunity to work with these amazing women on a day to day basis, to learn from them, and to be inspired by them. #internationalwomensday

Last month we had the pleasure of working several sessions with the mysterious RMR! If you’re not already familiar, RMR’s ski mask clad persona paired with his incredible voice made for a viral debut in 2020, and 2021 is sure to be his year. He’s here with our resident engineer Zukye in Studio A. Check out his new track with Shy Glizzy that just dropped today!

Another fresh plaque came in this week 🔥 In addition to the single Ransom going double platinum, Lil Tecca debut album “We Love You Tecca” has been confirmed platinum. Many of the tracks on this project were recorded and mixed at The Cutting Room by Joe Colmenero. We couldn’t be more excited to have both these records on the wall, and it feels good to have our first plaque of 2021 just over a month in! 💿💿💿

Last month we had the pleasure of working with Doctor Elvis Francois & Doctor Robinson, also known as The Singing Surgeons!
