My name is Luke and I am a music producer living in Syracuse, NY. For as long as I can remember it has always been my dream to make music and it wasn't up until about a year and half ago that I got my chance to work on projects that were actually released. I loved every minute of it, I loved it so much that I along with three of my closest friends who I started this journey with many years ago decided to invest in ourselves. We worked hard saved some money and invested into small equipment's that can allow us to produce our own music. I was the engineer my other friend a graduate from the Art Institute in New York City the videographer, my friend Devon Eure the artist. We knew what was required to make the songs but we knew it will also take us a long time to get noticed, time that we all did not have, so we decided to start our own independent label as well. As of December of last year we became the proud owners of Lanorecords, Inc. We thank God for this journey but our dream had just begun and we need your help in taking it to a whole new level. We are now trying to put together a much adequate studio, one that has all the proper and required equipments in order for us to continue our progress with our dreams. Our plans for this year is simple.

Raise enough money to get studio equipment and produce our very first album off Lanorecords. 

The money received will go into these areas and will help us improve significantly our chances of not only making a great project but also getting our project seen by many around the world.

10.000 will be used to buy all the required equipment to set up a proper in house studio within which the album will be produced.

5000 will go into acquiring exclusive beats and also pay for the beat makers that we will have on this project should we need to make any changes to the beats that we buy

10.000 will go into marketing and advertising. it is one thing to make a great project but it's another entirely to properly market and advertise that project.

10.000 will go into the hiring of different producers to work on some songs as we want to produce this project in-house but we do not want it to just be with our producer only we want to also have some established producers work on some of the songs.

5000 will go into paying two or three artiste to feature on some of the songs.

5000 will go into one video shoot to accompany the album.

the remaining 5000 will be saved for any unforeseen problems should we run into one.

The Album will be a 12 tracks album and our focus for this album will be solely based on Hip Hop, Rap, and Pop music to give us the platform to not only have our artist on it but to include others that we will meet on this journey.

The money raised will go into not only the equipment cost but also the other artists that we will feature, the engineer that will mix and master the songs, the recording cost of certain songs as we look to do most part of this project but we also plan to have established engineers work on some of the songs to make it the kind of quality we want.

While reading this you can see our video and the music in it is one that we made using our own equipment that we spend very little to buy. Given the opportunity to get label required equipment I am more that sure that we can make noise in this difficult to break into industry.
