Together Rediscovering Creativity

I'm a freelance music producer/songwriter specializing in urban music(R&B-pop-hiphop-electronica-soundscape) and sound for picture(movies-video games-commercials-tv shows).

I work from my own project recording studio and i have over 15 years of experience. To the question about what do i want , my answer is: It's not about what i want , it is about what do you need... Ultimately i just want to have fun working with great people and making some money along the way in the spirit of : both parties will benefit

I'm touching wood as I say this...people love the records I make with them and I love the people I make them with.

A Few Thoughts on Producing and Recording

We all perceive and experience music differently.Hopefully the musical sensibilities I bring to the table will please you. If they do, I hope we get a chance to work together.

As a producer having a clear mental picture of the type of sound being aimed for is extremely important, all the while remembering to leave plenty of room for some magic to join the party. The atmosphere and proper mood have to first be established in order for the performer to feel comfortable, inspired, and at ease while recording. An appropriate recording setup is therefore a must. The right microphones, their placement, the appropriate preamplifier, adequate speakers, an acoustically treated room, the use of high quality AD/DA converters, the right headphones, the right software, all come in play when it comes to delivering a quality product. The rest comes down to the skills and artistic talents of the individual running the session.

I must admit that having a great set of tools does add to the quality of the creative experience in a very significant way. On that note, I do use some of the well known and widely used tools found in some of the industry’s top studios.

Logic, Apogee’s Symphony system, Apogee converter and clock, Universal tube preamp and compressor, Sony C800G microphone ,AKG Headphones, Software plug-ins by Spectrasonics, Synthogy, IK Multimedia, Antares .......

As I see it, using my tools and skills to help You, the artist or client, bring your musical vision to fruition is my goal.......................... Hearing is believing. Let your senses be your guide.

Thank you for your interest…Peace to you and yours.
