In 1998, Delah Jones, a St. Louis Native living in Atlanta decided to pursue an idea she had been kicking around her entire life: become a music producer.
After moving back to St. Louis In 2001, she soon became serious about being a music producer, quitting her part time job. Single WOne Productions was born.
Being a female producer in the largely male-dominated hip -hop scene does not seem to bother her. “I’ve had my trials,” she said in spite of her competition, which she does not seriously take into consideration. “I think people have who they trust (to produce their music),” said Jones. “I get a lot of attention from people really wanting to get off the ground”
That is exactly what she strives to do, offering her talents wherever she can, to whoever is interested. Jones said that she has “done everything” in terms of musical genres. Although hip-hop remains her main source of clients, Jones says that her jazz background helps her become a more versatile producer. “I appreciate simplicity,” said Jones, also saying that she patterns her music after the jazz combo “one instrument for each section.” But she also attributes her influences to the “old school,” saying that she is “still into MC Lyte”” and east coast influences such as Jay Z and The Roots.
With her Roland MC909 and REASON software on her personal computer, Jones’ musical influence has reached beyond St. Louis’ City limits.
According to Jones, she has sat down with a few local artists such as Abyss, Sinister and Mz. Law but is also working with South Carolinas’ underground magazine Urban Pages as a contributing writer for the underground hip-hop scene here in St. Louis, MO.
According to Jones, she had a very musically-oriented childhood. Her father was an R&B/Jazz drummer and her mother was a professional singer. At age 12 Jones began playing the saxophone. Through her first year in college she played professionally the baritone, alto and soprano sax. She has also collaborated with her brother Kevin Carter; also know as “TEE KAY,” with the 11 tracks on his self-titled album and his most recent album “Still Ridin”.
Jones says she is living her life dream to be in the music industry and has a positive look on the future, which she says will remain oriented to up-and-coming artists and spreading her wings as far film, TV, and advertising. Besides producing hip-hop beats Jones has contributed to other musical projects locally. Jones was the music supervisor for “T-Man” Productions in the short film “Mr. Malcolm”, recorded voiceovers for Bob Colman (Majic 108 radio personality) for his new gospel play, and created pieces for a flourishing local visual artist to present before scholars in Germany. You may also find her on virtual 1’s and 2’s as a DJ for local teen parties. (ST. LOUIS ARGUS)Your musical influences
