James S on SoundBetter

11+ years of music production experience. I own a music sample label and I also offer full ghost tracks and mixing service to get your tracks to a high professional level. Releases incl. Sony, Spinnin', Ultra, Toolroom and I've had my tracks (and others) played on BBC Radio 1, BBC/SKY, Capital and supports by DJs such as Armin Van Burren & Tiesto

I am based in Manchester, UK and over the last 11 years and counting, I have developed a lot of skills in different genres such as EDM, Hip Hop, Pop, Trance, House & Trap. I specialize in Pop & Mainstream music as well as underground genres such as House, Techno, and Experimental Future/Rnb/Hip Hop

I offer a range of versatile skills to add to your tracks or I can create from scratch. I can make a full production around your initial song ideas, or if you need that extra 10% to get your track finished... I am your man! I offer unlimited revisions as I think it's important we get it right the first time... every time. I have never had an unhappy client.

Whether you are a solo artist who needs a full pop production, a rapper who needs a beat made and mixed... I have extensive knowledge and experience to get you the sound you want. From making beats to mixing, to full finished productions... I can do it all.

I also have extensive experience of live playing with my band, supporting acts such as "The Script", "James Arthur" & "Emilie Sande"

- One time fee, you keep 100% of the royalties. I charge flat fees and once the track is yours, it's yours no questions.
- Unlimited revisions

I play guitar, piano, bass, & drums as well as programming and producing tracks from scratch.

Unlimited revisions, we do it until its RIGHT. Turn around is typically 1-2 weeks. But can be done quicker if the project needs a quick turn around and can be moved ahead of queue at additional cost
