Xavier N.
API EthnoMusic Producer
I create distinctive, culture-driven music that merges Asian and Pacific Island traditions with contemporary R&B, Hip-Hop, Pop, and Reggae. One of my specialties is the music of the Philippines, where I draw from both indigenous traditions and historical influences across the archipelago. From my studio, I record authentic bamboo instruments—capturing their rich rhythms and organic tones to bring warmth, depth, and human feel into every track. I also specialize in Tahitian music, capturing the intricate polyrhythms of the toere (log drum) and the bright, rhythmic energy of the ukulele (both Tahitian ukulele and traditional ukulele). Whether you need a fully original song, custom instrumentation, or a collaborative creative partner, I deliver music that is unique, culturally rich, and tailored to your vision.
