Born in the Bronx, Michael found a love for music and production at a young age. Still in grade school, he figured out how to overdub vocals on his family's dual cassette deck, producing complex layers of vocal harmonies.  

During high school, he was the member of a R&B group who made it to the national finals of a talent competition.  Michael was in charge of the production of the instrumentals they performed to, vocal arrangements, as well as the recording  of their demo project. 

While in college, he began experimenting with digital recording on a Roland VS840, and a Yamaha SY85 keyboard.  This was a huge upgrade from the dual cassette deck of his youth and he was now producing lush, professional vocal arrangements.

As technology began to catch up with Michael's imagination, he found himself on the ground floor of home digital recording with computers, experiencing and overcoming the frustration of recording latency, hardware compatibility issues, computer crashes, and performance bottlenecks. 

To date, D-vine Productions has been the birth place of  the recordings of a wealth of talent ranging from Rap to Gospel.  With over 2 decades of experience, we're certain to provide just the sound you are looking for.
