Hi, I'm Dave...

Slant Six Studios is my personal creative outlet—I’m Dave Peterson, a lifelong musician with a deep passion for sound, songwriting, and sonic exploration. My musical journey began at age 13 in Michigan, behind a drum kit in a garage band with friends. That early spark grew into a lasting love for writing, recording, and producing music—something I’ve continued to develop in my home studio using Virtual Studio Technology (VST) and a commitment to the craft.

My music is shaped by a wide range of influences—from legendary artists to the friends and collaborators who helped define my sound during my teenage and college years. Slant Six Studios has grown with me over time, evolving from spare bedrooms to basement setups across different homes. Wherever it’s been, it’s always remained a space for honesty, creativity, and self-expression.

This website isn’t just about my music—it’s about connection. If something you hear resonates with you, I’d love for you to share it, leave feedback, or reach out. Every listen and every comment inspires the next project.

I’m also passionate about collaboration. Working remotely with musicians, vocalists, and producers from around the world is one of the most exciting parts of what I do. If you’re interested in building something together, I’d be thrilled to hear from you.

Whether you’re here to create or just to listen, thank you for being a part of this journey. Slant Six Studios is built on the belief that music moves us, connects us, and helps us tell our stories. I’m glad you’re here.
