The Digital Orchestra PROJECT

Do You Have What It Takes?

Dean Haskins Productions is excited about this new venture that could ultimately reach untold multitudes! And, we're looking for the absolute BEST of the BEST!

Here's the plan: through the miracle of modern technology, composer/arranger Dean Haskins is able to produce beautiful, full orchestrations with just his keyboard and computer. However, while virtual instruments can "fool" many ears, his desire is not to eliminate the need for talented instrumentalists; so, he's devised a way to include the best of both worlds.

Dean Haskins will do what he does best (the Salt & LIght Digital Orchestra), and we're going to identify talented solo artists for his exceptional "orchestra" to accompany. The collaborations will be available for digital download, and we'll split the proceeds for each download with the individual artists who performed on them. Once we have enough selections recorded to fill an album, we'll wholesale the CDs to the participating artists to market on their websites and at their concerts

Then, we'll start on "Volume 2."

As the project progresses, this playlist will grow, and we'll provide highlight information and links on this site about each of the soloists.

"It Is Well with My Soul" is included just to showcase Dean's orchestrating talent. Give it a listen--then buy it for 99 cents if you want to hear it on your MP3 player (just click on our image in the player, click "Buy," then click "SNOCAP").

What we're looking for here, predominantly, are professional artists who already have their own "fan base." However, the fact that we've never heard of you really says nothing about your ability. If you're not already someone we've heard of, send us your stuff!

Jazz, Rock, Symphonic, Contemporary, Inspirational, Country. . .it's all good. Dean Haskins can arrange in pretty much any style. He'll work directly with you to choose the Christian Favorite you want to record.
