I specialize in blending electronic and organic music into one to make pop tunes stand out! Add a touch of funk and that’s me in a nutshell! Some of my client work has been released on Ultra, Defected and other big dance music labels. I've also worked at Platinum Sound (NYC) for a couple of years when I was part of the making of "Miguel - Do You"
As both an audio engineer (SAE) and a keyboard/guitar player, I am both technically and musically inclined. I specialize in Pop and Dance Music. I have 15+ years of experience with the last 4 being done mostly remotely, so I'm very familiar with the process!
My clients are singers that I offer full productions for but also other producers that need their projects to be taken to the next level. I'm very attentive to the artist's vision and can successfully make an idea/concept come to fruition.
You can see me in action on YouTube (Bibz Music). I have a channel where I demonstrate my skills and make tutorials. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions :)
I'm originally from France but based in New York.
