David Park, better known as Davidior, is an American record producer, audio engineer, musician, songwriter and singer. He was a protégé of Bram Tobey (of Sony Music Studios), 2004–2006. Park first worked in the Staten Island underground music scene in the early 2000s, providing beats, recording and mixing songs, tracks and mixtapes for local artists.

Career

[edit]

Park's first entry into the music scene was a showcase performance at the 1998 Korean Chusok Festival in Flushing Meadows–Corona Park.[1][2] By 2003, Park began building a home studio to record and mix for a New York City client base.

Park interned at Sony Music Studios from 2004 to 2006 as a general audio assistant and assistant engineer for sessions, involving pre-room gear and atmosphere setup, according to the preferences of artists, producers or engineers. Park credits three assistant engineers at Sony Music Studios – Bram Tobey, Mike Tschupp and Tatsuya Sato – for their contribution in audio engineering and mentorship.

In 2004, he recorded for Jojo Pellegrino and met rapper Joe Parker,[3][4] who would later become his business partner.

From 2005 to 2007, Park was a partner and studio manager of House of Tracks Studios, Staten Island. He served as producer and manager for Melanie Iglesias in 2005. In the same year, collaborated and produced for Ex-plicit linez of The Movement, Warner Music Korea.

From 2007 to 2009, he attended SAE Institute, mentored by Michael White.[5]

Park's first record deal signing was with Cutting Records, Inc. dba[clarification needed] Beat Cutterz, LLC, c. 2010.[6] The one label-approved single, "Put Your Fist in the Air",[7] looked promising, but due to creative differences Park had to cease future development.

From 2011 to 2016, with the support and partnership of Joe Parker, Park was able to re-launch his Port Richmond, Staten Island recording studio under the name Retro Rock Studios, later updated to Sci Fi Lyfe Entertainment. There, Park has recorded for Parker and developed aspiring artists Nova, Kris Cartel and P. Mason.

At the tail end of 2016, Park has released an independent, instrumental album, "Concrete Waves" [8]
