Recording Connection mentor Gregory Hainer on Vibe and Flow
The training is already paying off for Coke, particularly in the form of several music placements on commercials for major companies like Kia and Gillette! He enjoys the challenge of expanding into different genres as different directors ask for different types of material. “Usually they ask for a certain type of style,” he says, “and to be able to do that and give them that and then see it go to screen and have the picture cut through it, it's a really cool experience.”
From an early age, Coke Youngblood dreamed of forging a career in music in the thriving Los Angeles scene. Now, thanks to the Recording Connection and his own passion, he's working to make that dream come true, and he couldn't be happier.
Los Angeles, California is the second largest city in America, with a city population of nearly 4 million people, and anchoring a sprawling metro area of nearly 18 million. Besides being the undisputed heart of the film industry, Los Angeles is also one of the world’s largest hubs in the record industry. Most of the major labels have offices here, and hundreds of state-of-the-art recording studios accommodate the needs of the thousands of local acts, as well as national and international recording stars.
Not limited to one particular style, Los Angeles has been on the cusp of nearly every emerging popular genre, from the Beach Boys surf music to punk, glam rock, alternative, hip-hop and thrash metal. The list of noteworthy bands and artists coming out of Los Angeles is nearly endless, ranging from classic rock legends like The Eagles and Stevie Nicks to metal bands like Motley Crue and Metallica, and everything in between. If you are looking at a career in audio as a recording engineer, live audio engineer or music producer, there is no better or more diverse musical culture in which to learn it.
The RECORDING CONNECTION’s advantage over ordinary Los Angeles AUDIO ENGINEERING SCHOOLS is our mentor-apprentice (extern) approach.

Our revolutionary approach gets you on the inside track, and the end result is that over 70% of our graduates get permanent jobs in the recording industry. You owe it to yourself to see what the LOS ANGELES RECORDING CONNECTION can do for your career.
With the right experience and connections, you can jumpstart your career in the music industry.
Professionals in the music business—including famous producers and audio engineers who’ve worked on the music that inspires you—endorse Recording Connection’s audio programs for one simple reason: they know our immersive hands-on method works.
