Built at the intersection of music, technology, and deep listening.

Music arrived early and stayed. Tyler grew up drawn to hip hop — not just as a listener, but fascinated by how it was made. The production, the layers, the decisions that made a track feel inevitable. As a teenager he started buying recording gear. A microphone, audio interface, foam panels, recording software. With a lot of help from his grandmother, he began teaching himself Pro Tools and recording music in his bedroom.

He wrote tracks, freestyled, explored production, and released music under the name Brydzy. That experience gave him a full view of the creative process — from first idea to something you'd share with the world. What stayed with him wasn't just the making. It was the obsession with sound. The hours of listening, studying, comparing. Music was never just something he created. It was something he lived with.

What those early production years revealed most clearly was the gap between what you could hear in your head and what you could actually produce. The ideas were vivid. The execution was hard. MIDI programming, signal chains, arrangement decisions, mixing. Each layer added friction. But the friction was revealing — it showed him something real about what the tools were and weren't doing for the people using them.

Tyler later studied Interactive Media Design at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. Technology became another layer of expression — a way to build the things you couldn't yet reach. He went on to found Speak AI, a platform now used by more than 250,000 people for audio and video capture, transcription, analysis, and language workflows. Building Speak deepened his understanding of voice, language, and audio systems — and showed him how natural language can fundamentally change the way people interact with complex tools.

Through all of it, music never left. The listening kept deepening. The curiosity about the creative process — his own and other people's — never stopped. Over time a question became hard to ignore: what if the tools that help people work with music were actually intelligent? Not in a way that replaces what humans bring — but in a way that genuinely supports it.

Sessions emerges from that question. When tools like Cursor and Claude Code began transforming software development, the shift was hard to miss. Developers gained the ability to direct complex systems using plain language. The friction dropped. The creative range expanded. Tyler watched it happen and kept thinking about what it might mean for music.

Music creation hasn't fully experienced that shift. The same gap between musical vision and its realization still exists for many producers today. But beyond creation, there's another gap: the people who love music most — who listen obsessively, who feel the changes in their taste over seasons and years — have almost no real intelligence about their own listening. A year-end recap isn't enough.

Sessions is building tools across both of these spaces. Creative workflow support for producers and artists. Listening intelligence for music fans. The two directions share a core belief: people who love music deserve better tools — tools that are genuinely useful, that respect the human side of music, and that get more valuable the more you use them.

The goal isn't to force AI into music. It's to find the places where thoughtful tools can actually help — and build carefully from there.

The mission is still being refined through building real things and getting real feedback. Early tools are in development. The direction is becoming clearer with each one.

Tyler is building Sessions from Mississauga, Ontario just outside Toronto. He is building it because creative tools matter — and because showing his daughter what's possible is one of the best reasons to keep going.
