PRODUCER RAHNI SONG

As an ambitious kid growing up in the Stowe Village housing project in Hartford, Connecticut, Rahni was greatly affected by the musical influence of his parents. “Our house always had music playing! Day and night! It was a way of life for me!” Years ago in a small room in the back of the house, his dream began. Wires, microphones and tape recorders everywhere.  Hanging on the wall was a spray-painted replica of a gold album. Music staff paper covered the floor as an electric piano sat in the middle of the room.  He looks at the painted gold record and says “One day that thing on the wall is going to be the real thing!”  As a teen, Rahni would sit obsessively for hours taking in the magic of his musical role models. He was very picky about who he listened to. From the pioneering Gospel music genius of Myrna Summers and Henry Jackson to the jazz, r&b, and funk of Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis, Bernard Purdie, Chuck Rainey, and the arrangements of Thom Bell, Gene Page, Quincy Jones and Henry Mancini. 

Throughout his many years as a producer, musician, and recording engineer, he has kept his finger on the pulse of the ever-changing music industry and its numerous trends, without missing a beat! From Funk, R&B, and Hip-Hop to Classical, Pop, Rock, and Jazz! Unlike the predictability of many producers of today, Rahni is a true music chameleon.
