I’m MATTHEW PAUL COOPER and my passion is to help Christian songwriters and recording artists release the songs that the Lord has given them.

My mission is to capture the sound of the secret place and let it be heard at the ends of the earth, developing and amplifying the unique sound that’s rising from our region.

I believe it’s time for Christian songwriters and artists to arise and share the music they’ve been called to release, letting their message resonate far beyond what they could imagine.

Let’s bring your sound to life together.

Songwriting & Artist Collaboration

If you have a song in progress that needs workshopping or are interested in co-writing with other songwriters, I’d love to collaborate with you. Together, we can develop your song, building on your ideas and bringing out the message and sound you envision.

Production

From concept to completion, we offer full production services that bring your song to life. I work closely with you to develop and refine your unique sound, taking your music from seed form through each stage until it’s fully realized and ready to share.

Mixing

Our mixing services ensure your song reaches industry standards. We balance and polish the track, preparing it for mastering so it sounds clear, professional, and impactful.
