“Performers Teach..Teachers Perform.”
Zoltan Kodaly
My name is Charles Yates
I am currently a Senior at Full Sail University majoring in Music Production
The owner and operator of Powermove Productions..
And a Producer at Ape Studios in Toledo, Ohio where I work with young people who are interested in music..
And Music Production.
But let me start from the beginning..
I started playing Trumpet at the age of 13. I then started playing Guitar,Bass and Drums. In High School
I joined a local R&B group which opened for groups such as “New Birth”,”Harold Melvin And The Blue
Notes”, and “Cameo”
Upon graduation, I received Music Scholarships from Alabama A&M,Bishop College and Florida
A&M
I chose FAMU…
After leaving FAMU, I returned to my Alma Mater Jesup W.Scott H.S.
As the Assistant Band Director/ Musical Arranger. I loved working with the young
people..
Then came Synthesizers,Samplers,Drum Machines,and Portastudios in 1985..I
then had the power to not only compose..
But I could also play all of the parts and record them
And I did..and loved it.
Mob Style Records ran into legal issues which suspended signing with a major label shortly after the release of the album..I was crushed..
So I quit..
Four years ago a couple of my friends who have made a name for themselves in the industry was in town for a
benefit concert. I was invited down to “sit-in” with them.
Trez Gregory from “Brooks And Dunn
“Big Game” James Manning
So I went out to a local studio for a session..I was asked to man the console..
I WAS LOST..DIDN’T HAVE A CLUE.. But THEY didn’t know that..
I hadn’t been in a studio in 20 years..then I got an idea..
GO BACK TO SCHOOL !
I have been taught to use..
Logic Pro
Logic X
Sibelius
Pro Tools
Komplete
I recently composed a song for the WWE/NXT series entitled “Undisputable”
Now that I have the necessary tools..
May I work for you?
