_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.
