As one of Detroit's most in-demand producers & sought-after remixers,
Aaron-Carl’s signature sound crosses genres; from soulful, gospel-infused House, to the dirtiest ghettotech anthems. His productions have graced various labels throughout the world, including Subject Detroit, Metroplex, Universal France and his own imprint, Wallshaker Music.
Aaron is currently writing & producing tracks for legendary dance artists like Quentin Harris, CeCe Peniston and Candy J (of The Candy Girls). He has also remixed some of Detroit’s biggest groups, like Underground Resistance, SCAN 7, Kelli Hand & AUX 88, as well as artists like
Dajae, Gus Gus,
and African jazz great Manu Dibango.
Starting in 1996, armed with little more than a cheap keyboard & a four-track
cassette tape recorder, Aaron-Carl proved early on that he could hold his own. His demo tape landed into the hands of Underground Resistance's "Mad" Mike Banks, and Aaron was quickly signed to Banks' Soul City
record label. Even then, Aaron refused to be boxed into one genre. His first two
records were released at the same time: "Crucified,"a soulful deep house vocal, and "Wash It," a cheeky underground club banger. While both records received great critical acclaim, it was "Down," (an
explicit electro-house track on the B-side of "Wash It") that became -- and remains one of Aaron's biggest records to date.
Ron Murphy (NSC Mastering) and "Mad" Mike Banks were strong mentors for Aaron. "It wasn't enough for me to write great songs," he says. "They taught me how to make great RECORDS…" Aaron compares their guidance to boot camp. "They saw my potential, and wouldn't accept anything less than my best." He describes, "Mike held meetings with all the
producers on the label. He'd play the hottest tracks at the time, and would
challenge us to go home and do better"
Aaron-Carl launched his Wallshaker imprint in 1998 -- named after his final Soul City release. His third Wallshaker single, "My House," caught the attention of Philadelphia house label, Ovum Recordings. The song got licensed and went on to become Aaron's first
Billboard Top 40 Dance/Club hit.
Two of Aaron's deep house tracks -- "Sky"(a tribute to his late father) and "Oasis" are featured in the internationally acclaimed House music documentary, "Maestro"by Josell Ramos.
Owning and overseeing the successful Wallshaker Music label plus heading his own music publishing company, Symphonic Storm Music Publishing, Aaron-Carl proves himself as a definite force to be reckoned with -- and shows no signs of slowing down.
Aaron-Carl is currently the host of weekly Internet Radio Show,
THE W.A.R.M.T.H. SESSIONS, Fridays @ 7PM EST, on WARMTH313.COM.
