Studio Proof had Hollywood royalty in this week with the cast of the new Dora The Explorer movie!

Studio Proof had Hollywood royalty in this week with the cast of the new Dora The Explorer movie, recording vocals for the finale song that they were shooting yesterday. Dora – Isabela Moner, Diego – Jeffrey Wahlberg, Sammy – Madeleine Madden, Cole – Michael Pena, AND the one and only Eva Longoria playing Dora’s mum, Elena. So cool to have the Paramount producer here in the studio as well! Really…

Second track of mine played at the Olympics. So grateful! My original track "Olympiad" broadcast live from the Tokyo Aquatics Centre 2021 Olympics for the athletes walk on for the Diving Final. (Men's 3M Springboard) I've been trying to upload the actual live broadcast but FB keeps blocking it LOL. Luckily my mate Rodd was there to film it from the sidelines. You can have a listen to the track here if you want. 🙂 https://music.apple.com/au/album/olympiad/317825192?i=317825197 #olympics #tokyo #music #australia #applemusic #itunes (at Tokyo Olympic Games 2021) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSOh9EvJTYd/?utm_medium=tumblr

"Connected to the Zenbeats on my iPad via Bluetooth MIDI, I can make a whole song without worrying about a mess of cables, or having all the right ones to begin with." https://www.instagram.com/p/CI27fpwgEEr/?igshid=og3a97ronr52

Hi everyone, here's an original piece I put together using only FANTOM. Most of the sounds are the new SuperNATURAL sounds, hence the title of the track. What you're hearing is all live from FANTOM's sequencer with me playing the new SuperNATURAL piano and a ZEN-Core synth along with the tracks I performed and recorded in FANTOM's sequencer. Something a bit jazz-fusionesque! 😃 Hope you like it. You can see the whole video over at my YouTube channel, via link tree in the bio link above. #rolandathome #rolandrules #synth #studio #FANTOM #supernatural #fusion #jazz #music #instadaily (at Studio Proof) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAp9aa8gYPI/?igshid=13jogdbc81zs6
