Audio Engineering Programs Spotlight – The Complete Music Producer Program

Sol Rising (AKA Brandon Au) was a Pyramind student in 2008 and graduated from one of Pyramind’s audio engineering programs, known today as our Complete Music Producer Program.

His original soundscapes evoke feelings of bliss throughout an eclectic mix of hip-hop, funk, soul, reggae, EDM and electronic dance beats.

Born in Vancouver, BC, Brandon began meditating at age four with a walking mantra technique. His mother took him to visit numerous spiritual teachers, who inspired him on the spiritual path he walks today. As a teenager, he became a hip-hop fanatic.

His rooted interest in hip-hop led him to learning the art of scratching — using turntables as musical instruments. Sol Rising soon became one of America’s top scratch DJs, winning second place at the DMC, the world’s most prestigious DJ competition.

After graduating in the top 5% of his accounting class at University of Iowa, he realized accounting was not his path. A journey to India illuminated his true calling — to light up people’s awareness of their true nature through music. This lead him to begin studying in Pyramind’s audio engineering programs and productions at Pyramind Studios in San Francisco and produce his first album, “I AM Soul.”

Now a successful Producer with 20 albums released, Sol Rising has been streamed nearly 200 million times on Spotify and Apple music. He has licensed music for brands such as Apple, Clarks Shoes, Hotels.com, Snapchat, Airbnb and US Polo as well as a placement in Academy Award winning director Paolo Sorrentino’s latest film “Loro.” Sol Rising has been featured in major media outlets including The Washington Post and Yoga Journal.  Sol Rising is an international touring DJ playing festivals in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia and Australia at festivals such as Wanderlust, Burning Man and Lightning in a Bottle. He has also joined forces with Yoga powerhouse MC Yogi and has a fervent following in the Ecstatic Dance scene. Sol Rising has headlined Ecstatic Dance Retreat Hawaii, and is a fixture at Ecstatic Dances across the country. Sol Rising has been featured in many other major media outlets and his music has been enjoyed by millions of viewers through his YouTube video.
