We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Christopher Mandujan. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Christopher below.
Christopher, appreciate you joining us today. It’s always helpful to hear about times when someone’s had to take a risk – how did they think through the decision, why did they take the risk, and what ended up happening. We’d love to hear about a risk you’ve taken.
I started out producing only Hip-Hop & R&B records earlier in my career, however over the last 2-3 years I have branched out into producing more projects that fit in the Dance & Jazz genres.
I believe it was a risk considering that my fan base or anyone familiar with my music in general was not accustomed to hearing that type of music from me. I wasn’t not sure if me attempting to displaying my range as a producer would work in my benefit.
However, me branching out and trying new things with my producing has not only peaked interest with my current fan base , but has introduced me to new followers across various genres.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
