About me
Hailing from the Lower East Side of Manhattan, super producer Eric Vargas continues to make a significant impact upon the music industry. Eric’s music career interest began at the tender age of six years old, as he was constantly surrounded by the sounds of R&B and Soul music that his Dad would play from the radio or his cd collection. He would not only be interested in the person singing, but would soon realize that the originality of the beat was the defining factor between "classics" and songs. As he developed a deeper appreciation for production, he began to teach himself how to use different synthesizers and sequencers that would allow him to make beats and engineer.Eric is a creative visionary who understands that the technical aspects of music are very important to the total creative process. While he began producing during his teens for local acts in high school, Eric saw the opportunity to refine his skills to ensure longevity in the music industry. Upon graduation from high school, he enrolled and completed a recording arts degree at Full Sail University FL in 2004. Eric looked at the music industry and saw a bright future laid before him, as he continued to work with local acts and work diligently on his craft. His hard work and dedication didn’t take long to be noticed by Swizz Beatz, who then recruited Eric to work directly with him on major label projects.
Having contributed productions for albums released by recording artists such as: Bone Thugs N Harmony, DMX, Cassidy, Fabolous, Lil’ Wayne, Busta Rhymes to name a few, Eric has accomplished a lot at a very young age. At 23, his focus and dedication turned to sound displays, his sincere concern for the quality of the sounds in music that is being produced grew. Continuously inspired, Eric seeks to create a legacy all on his own. He says, “Right now Im just focused on my craft, 2017 vibes!”
Legends are not created, they are born. They are people who realize that they have the ability to accomplish the extraordinary. Eric's perseverance and strong desire has made him a talent to watch. He has built a solid foundation to create a legacy that will impact the lives of other artists for years to come.
Eric’s talent for audio does not stop there. Working in the music business has made it easy for him to translate more in to the commercial, film and television side of the industry. When he is not in his own recording studio in NYC, he works actively on sets, and closely with directors and producers as a sound mixer to create the best possible audio for these productions. With his musical background, Eric has a stronger ear for all things audio related making him an asset to any team he is a part of.
