Alex Crescioni is my guest today.

Let me tell you what little I know of him and then explain why I wanted him as a guest. Alex is someone I admire for his quiet perseverance and will. He's the kind of professional in this business that continues to make great waves, produce incredible music, represent the best aspects of our industry and well.... from everything I've seen, he's a great guy.

Passion is a word used quite often to describe producers in our space. Most people forget that passion means 'to suffer.' That said, Alex is living proof that suffering, if one can call it that, is worth it to output the kind of material and influence that he's created.

Alex owns and operates Stygian Sound in Los Angeles, is friends of a few of my friends, and has worked on some of the most important records in modern history. He's amazing. Simply put, Alex has vision and determination and that's what matters, more than anything, in this world... whether it's in the arts, or your career of choice, commitment at all costs is the difference maker.

Ladies and gentlemen, Alex Crescioni!
