The T2 Team
TAT TONGPRODUCER, ARRANGER, MIX & MASTERING ENGINEER
Tat Tong brings the full force of his multiple talents to every T2 project. As a mix and mastering engineer, his productions have consistently garnered critical acclaim, including 11 CARA (Contemporary A Cappella Recording Awards) nominations barely a year after T2 Productions was founded. In addition, work by T2 has been featured on every major a cappella compilation since 2005, and tracks by T2 client Tic Tac Tone have gotten airplay on Clear Channel Top 40 radio.
Beyond a cappella, Tat's instrumental compositions have been performed internationally in Japan and Vietnam; as a signed singer-songwriter, Tat has written for major label artists, including Universal Music Group singer Jackie Cheung. His diverse experience in the "real" music industry, as well as his background as a composer and songwriter, gives his studio work a creative and uniquely radio-friendly flavor - a hallmark of every T2 production.
