GHAISIK on SoundBetter

I’m a music producer. My main genre of expertise is R&B and Hip-Hop. For 19 years i’ve developed my sounds and taste as well as been part of album projects of Nigerian artistes such as Banky W, Wizkid, Yemi Alade, Patoranking, Phyno, Timi Dakolo and Tiwa Savage.

I would like to produce/be part of a project for any of your R&B, Pop or Hip-Hop artists, create unique sounds that match their style and at the same time give their brand an audience on a global scale. I believe I can be an integral part of the creative process for your next LP or EP projects.

I learn every time music plays in my ears, whether it's the overall pattern of the composition or the sounds, I kept learning and built a wealth of music knowledge. My taste for music is very expensive, the sounds I have chosen to identify with are unique. I basically bring uniqueness to a song.
Q: What's your typical work process?

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Identify the style of music the artist represents by having a brief discussion about current creative works as well as a target market. Afterwards we experiment on sounds. Once the artist likes a particular sound i capitalise on the type of sound and create various instrumentals with similar sounds. Basically, I guide the artist as well as produce music for the artist that fits his style.
