Dan Reitz Studios Music Composer & Digital Media Producer

Oh hey! This place doesn't exist anymore!

This was a basement-office-turned-into-music-studio I rented a few doors down from our last apartment in New York City! The folks who owned the building were very nice, and I was the only tenant who would ever be in the building after 5pm, so it was a pretty good deal.

I made a bunch of good music here, and the seeds of a few major musical projects were sown here, one of which is scheduled to be released by Netflix next year. I did stuff for other Big Name podcasts and streaming services too, so I can say that it was a success overall.

It was damp in that basement! Too damp. The owners provided a portable dehumidifier, but it wasn't enough to save some of my electronics. My computer started getting weird a few months, which ruined at least one recording session and definitely made me seem less than professional on a couple of other occasions.

Renting this place also made me feel obligated to take on all customers and clients, and this led to a few sessions that were outside the bounds of what I would normally want to be doing.

But it was ultimately a blessing to find an under-market space on the block where we lived. The folks who ran the building were very nice. They did charity drives and stuff. And it was fun to have a place where my friends could come over and not be worried about being too loud or goofy late at night.

Unique experience for New York City. Also so damp it ruined my computer. Overall rating: 6/10

Music Production + Composition

A music composition and media project studio in New York City. If you have a project that needs music, or a track you need to produce for a live show or video, please send me a message. We can do any stage of most projects here, from conception to delivery: composing, songwriting, recording, editing, mixing, post-production, and mastering.

I have a background in music composition, arranging, writing and musical direction, and over 20 years of experience as a musical artist, creator, performer, engineer, and producer. My most recent work has been composing and arranging music for an upcoming Netflix movie and performing on piano at the Kennedy Center.

As a collaborative composer and producer, I have developed an easygoing, knowledgeable style that people consistently value and return for. People don’t just come here to record their project or get a track produced; they come to shape their vision, to edit and orchestrate their music, and to add the polish and studio magic that will make their work shine and stand out.

My studio is built around collaboration and efficient workflow, and I’ve invested a lot of time and money making sure we can “knock it out of the park.” I have a wealth of experience working with all types of folks -- songwriters, singers, creative producers, Broadway actors, comedians, directors, playwrights, videographers, slam poets, lyricists, suits -- and am usually able to deliver clients a product they are very happy with. I work extremely hard on every project that I take on, and I’m insanely particular about making sure things sound as good as possible before things are considered “finished.”
