My role as a producer means doing whatever it takes to capture an artist’s ideas and create a successful record
My goal as a producer is to marry together an artist’s music with an unique sonic aesthetic that enhances the power of their record.
Engineering
My approach when working as an engineer on a project is to make the raw recorded tracks sound as good as possible as early as possible. From my prospective, 80% of a great sounding record is in how you capture the raw sound. This is the most important step after the pre-production. From there I’m able to begin establishing the shape of a song.
Mixing
Mixing is one of my favorite parts of making a record. It’s the last opportunity to add my own creative touch to a song, bring it alive, and make it compelling.
Creating a great mix isn’t just a technical process. It’s all about presenting the song in a way that elicits emotion from the listeners.
Mixing gives me the opportunity to bring each component of the production alive and imprint a unique, professional touch to make a song competitive on the market.
