I can record piano or keys for your song or production or I can make a full production around a bare bones song Working with your vision and ideas, I'll bring that experience to your music and songs.

I can play piano or keyboard on your song or I can make a full production around a bare bones song you have or anything in between.
whilst communicating regularly, you will be part of the process from start to finish. I will ensure that your song comes to life with a tight production and mix, or a punchy remix.

Some of my credits include Air Supply, Sam Sparro,Dawn Robinson (En Vogue) M.C Rai, Alabina, NBC, Sony, Miramax etc.

I specialize in Pop, Rock EDM World Music (Middle Eastern, African etc.) but have also produced a lot of country, and folk.
