Incorporated Elements is a music production company founded in the late 1990s by producer/DJ, Ric Robbins (also known as DJ Form). Incorporated Elements works in many areas of production, including artist production and development and music for film, television, video games, and advertising. After running Incorporated Elements by himself for the early years, Ric Robbins brought on Tacoma, Washington, based producers Eric Olson and Nate Thacker to round out the three-man team. I.E., as they are known for short, work out of their Nashville, Tennessee, based studio named the Inc.Spot.
Robbins' ultimate vision for Incorporated Elements is that it becomes a company that helps up-and-coming producers, artists, songwriters, engineers, and bands fully realize their goals and dreams in the music industry. I.E. is making plans to open a multi-use complex in the Franklin, Tennessee, area to offer writing rooms, studios, training, and practice rooms. They want to aid in launching the next generation of music professionals.
