Well known for his for his highly praised club remixes exclusively released on the record pool DJ City, Michael Mayeda is a musician and producer based in Los Angeles California.

If this is your first time hearing the name Michael Mayeda, chances are you might have already heard his work. Mayeda has an impressive portfolio of music credits that have appeared on tv networks like NBC, and even to the bigger screen with placements on movies like Seth Rogen’s “Neighbors 2” and Marvel’s “Ant-Man”. Despite Mayeda's successful work in music production, his talents go far beyond that. He is also an acclaimed club dj and turntables.

Mayeda has recently put forth another talent of his where he is combining visual content along with his production. In his new video series "KEYBOARD VIBES," he will be performing original chilled trap beats and samples, accompanied with melodic chords and melodies.

His recent project, Scratch Wars Ep.1 “Power of the Darkside”, has made a lot of noise as he produced, performed and paid homage to the 80’s classic Star Wars. This is a turntablist performance showcasing creativity and skills that even George Lucas could appreciate.

Mayeda continuously stays active in the studio creating new music for future projects and upcoming placement releases, leaving us with nothing but excitement for what the future has in store for him.
