Interview with Cc

Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
I haven't explored the site yet. I'm sure there are.... (i'll find them).

The creative process and creating a song/product that people can connect too.
What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
How long will it take? (all depends on how clear your brief is) How many revisions at no additional charge can we have? (2)
What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
The tremendous amount of hours that goes into learning an instrument, song writing, knowing who you are as an artist (so that you don't sound like everyone else). There is a reason why people who are good at what they do are. I've studied music for 6 years and written songs for almost 30 years.
What questions do you ask prospective clients?
I ask them for a clear brief.
What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
Do some research before posting the job add - then you know what you want before you ask for help to make it a reality. Ask - nothing is set in stone - we want the same end product - something great!
If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
Solarpannels, keys, interface, mic, laptop! ;)
What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
I've been performing for over 25 years in bands and professionally since 2004 when I finished The royal academy of music.
How would you describe your style?
A mix of groove, etherial tones, texture and honesty.
Which artist would you like to work with and why?
Quincy Jones - his incredible versatility, ear for grooves and great vibe.
Can you share one music production tip?
Think about what type of track/attitude/story/feel before you start - get inspired by something similar!
What type of music do you usually work on?
Neo soul, jazz, nu-jazz, brazilian, etherial music (any genre), improvised
What's your strongest skill?
My versatility and range.
What do you bring to a song?
Honesty, story telling, range, timber, flexibility and professionalism.
What's your typical work process?
I've been writing songs for 25+ years so I'm quick in getting something down and work really well with briefs/word association/story lines.
What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
Stevie Wonder, Arvo Pärt, Pharell, Bruno Mars, Aretha Franklin, Miles Davis, Minnie Riperton, Jill Scott, Esperanza Spalding, Lianne la havas, Prince, TOP, Tribe Called Quest, Debussy, Bartok and many more.
Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
