XMPLA on SoundBetter

Back in 2017, I won the Studios 301 electronic music competition, ‘Is It A Banger?’ As ‘XMPLA’, I was also featured in OZ EDM, Amnplify, Black Hearts, and produced a song live on triple j morning show as well as being their unearthed artist of the week.

Releasing music as an independent artist has pushed me to learn about all aspects of a recording, from the demo stage to mixing and polishing a song to marketing, PR and running ads. Working with a label has taught me a lot about the back end of music business, promoting music and licencing/registering your intellectual property.

I can produce and your next song, add toplines, raps, and instruments of your choosing, or design unique sounds to set your track apart from the rest. I can also help you run Facebook, Youtube, or Pinterest ads, help you write your press release, or submit to blogs, playlisters or radio!

Really enjoyed working on XMPLA's track. A good producer with a firm idea of where the track should be. Hopefully the first of many.
