_what i do

I handle all the technical aspects of recording. This includes setting up microphones, managing recording sessions, and ensuring the sound quality is top-notch. I make sure everything sounds as good as it should right from the start.

 

I oversee the entire creation process of a track or album. This means working with artists to shape the sound and direction of their music, arranging tracks, and bringing everything together to create a cohesive final product. It’s about turning musical ideas into reality.

 

Mixing involves balancing all the individual tracks of a song so they sound great together. I adjust levels, panning, and EQ to make sure every element fits perfectly. The goal is to create a polished, professional mix that highlights the best parts of the music.

 

As a session player, I step in to perform live or on recordings when needed. Whether it’s guitar, bass, or another instrument, I bring my playing skills to the table to add that extra layer of musicianship to a track. It’s about enhancing the music with live performance.

 

Composing involves creating original music from scratch. I write melodies, harmonies, and arrangements that fit the specific needs of the artist. It’s about crafting unique musical pieces that tell a story or set a mood.

 

 

_lessons & tones

I've collabed with STL Tones to create my own personal Signature Tonehub Pack. Using 11 of my go to guitar amp/cab/pedal setups, we worked closely together in the studio to create a signature collection that cater to all of my playing styles. My pack contains 88 presets.

You can get them at the STL Tones store.

You can also get my guitar lessons, covering a wide variety of techniques, riff dissections, warm-ups and gear/tone talk.

You can get them at RiffHard.
