O-Funk Productions is a San Diego based home recording studio built around vintage equipment, analog keyboards, and vacuum tube oscilloscopes. We create, record, mix and master your music, shoot a visualizer video to match, and put our featured artists in front of new ears. Whether you need full-service production, some extra keys, o-scope visuals, or finishing touches, we get your tracks out there sounding fresh with a retro glow!

Who we are

O-Funk Productions was founded in 2026 by Alistair Wilson, a native Californian who grew up in a musical family, was classically trained from an early age, and has never stopped his musical exploration. He started recording on a 4-track with a Roland HS60 + TR707 at 12, studied audio engineering in high school, and played keys in funk/fusion bands throughout the 90’s and early 00’s.

Since then, Alistair has focused on collaborations with his brother Julian Temple and LA-based saxophonist and composer Walter Davis, as well as solo releases under the name Al Stereo. As a producer, he has over 25 years experience developing his ears and techniques. As a musician, Alistair is a keyboardist, beat maker, and sound designer. His influences are eclectic but his mission is simple: heal through music.
