Producer/Remixer David Sisko Opens Min Max Studios in Midtown
Producer and Remixer David Sisko (David Siskovic), one-half of the songwriting team and recording artist Disco Pusher, announced that he has opened Min Max Studios in Midtown Manhattan.
Sisko and his electronic duo Disco Pusher are just coming off a number of projects, including remixes and songs for Roxy Music, Richard Morel, Cut Copy, Toots Hibbert and Au Revoir Simone. Together, Sisko and Disco Pusher specialize in producing, remixing and writing global pop and electronic music – current projects include songs for Ninjasonik, Dangerous Muse, Chloe Flower and Ferrari Snowday.
The facility will be used for in-house projects, and is also commercially available for sessions where Sisko is engineer or producer. “The goal of Min Max was to find a space suitable not only for Disco Pusher songs and remixes, but also writing/producing tracks for all types of artists: from singer songwriters to bands to rappers,” says Sisko. “Also to find a space suitable for working on video game projects for Pitstop Productions in the UK who is also a tenant in the space. If the band is too large for this room, there is a large live room down the hallway that we can expand into in order to track, as this is a floor of studios and engineers.”
The Min Max studio is built around a 12-core Macintosh Computer running Digital Performer and an array of synths, effects and drum machines from the 80’s onwards. The entire fully-floated studio suite includes a 14’x20’ control room and a 6’x9’ vocal booth, large enough to accommodate a string quartet, multiple singers or a full drum kit.
According to Sisko, the new space provides him and his clients with the ideal combination of size, ambience and equipment. “Everyone feels comfortable: from the Flatbush rapper to an advertising exec to a pop star, all of whom are clients,” he says. “It’s located in the high 30’s near 5th avenue near all subways and train stations. It’s also very private – there’s not a lot of activity on the floor so artists/clients can come, chill out and make music at their own pace.”
