TRACK-N-STEINZ
MUSIC × SCIENCE × TECHNOLOGY × CULTURE
Track-N-Steinz is an independent media and cultural production exploring music through the people, places, technology, artifacts and stories that shape it.
Through original episodes, field productions, interviews and the Track-N-Steinz Lab, we document culture while creating an archive that gives audiences additional context beyond the episode.
Who are these people — and why does the Lab exist?
What can we do together — school, brand, venue, or city?
// WHAT WE ACTUALLY PRODUCE
Not a vision deck.
A working facility.
The Track-N-Steinz Show
Original long-form episodes and special productions. Ton and Speck inspect culture in public. Halloween specials. Guest episodes. The thing you watch — then the Lab is waiting underneath it.
SEE THE SHOW RAIL →On location
Documentation of music history, communities, artists and cultural spaces. NYC — birth of hip hop — is the next field trip on the slab. The city is a specimen, not a backdrop.
FIELD TRIPS →The archive behind the episode
Deeper context, research, artifacts, gear and supporting material connected to productions. Pull a File. Watch. Inspect evidence. Open the report. Leave with more than a clip.
ENTER THE LAB →The people who built it
Artists, producers, DJs, engineers, historians, collectors, educators — anyone holding a piece of the culture. Conversation as evidence. Not a red-carpet recap.
COMING FILES →Put the record under the light.
Examinations of significant or unusual records, equipment and music artifacts. If it still twitches after the inspection, it earns the coat. If it doesn’t, we say so.

// THE CREW ON THE SLAB
Cherry. Ton. Speck.
Founder in the coat. Hosts on the desk. Same facility. Cherry built the Lab. Ton and Speck put culture under the light on camera. You don’t need a staff directory. You need to know who is holding the mic when the file pulls open.
Independent. In production. Not a network hand-me-down.
// PARTNERS + ORGANIZATIONS
What we can
do together.
Schools, brands, venues, cities, STEM programs, after-school networks, cultural orgs. We don’t sell a logo-on-a-step-and-repeat. We build a production, a classroom, or a field study you can actually stand in.
School + STEM
Virtual or in-person bookings. After school. Multi-language delivery. The slab in period 3 — bass, waves, coats kids want to wear.
Field production
On-location documentation. NYC hip hop history is the model. Bring us to the block, the archive, the studio, the museum.
Episode + Lab
A show segment plus an IN THE LAB File: evidence, report, gear, context. The episode is the spark. The Lab is the archive.
Sonic Wave
Fall program: paint the frequency, chip the audio on the back. Families, youth, adults, offices, parties.
Brand inspection
Put a record, a campaign, or a piece of gear on the slab. Honest, filmed, filed. Not an ad pretending to be a lab report.
Support the facility
Coats, seats, gear, space. Community before checkout. If you fund it, we can keep the doors open.
