Get In Touch

After attending recording school at Full Sail, Kyle “Slick” Johnson moved to NYC to pursue a career in music.  In 2003 he began working as an assistant to producer Joe Blaney. In the years following, he engineered and co-wrote for Fischerspooner’s album Odyssey and worked closely with Dennis Herring as an engineer, programmer, and mixer.  Kyle’s unique production style helped Cymbals Eat Guitars earn critical acclaim for their debut album, Why There are Mountains. Relocating to Philadelphia from Brooklyn after 8 years, in 2010 he opened the doors at Fancy Time Studio where he now writes, records, and produces most of his projects. Over the years, Kyle has worked with a wide variety of artists including Modest Mouse, The Hives, Rogue Wave, Bleeding Rainbow, Wavves, The So So Glos, 1,2,3, Creepoid and others.
