Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: It all started out as a hobby for me after hearing the song Divine by Jamie Antonelli back in 2013. 2019 I decided that I wanted to grow as a producer and gain more knowledge and applied for an education regarding production, mixing and mastering. I've learned a lot during this time and also realized, at least for me that half the joy with music is the process of creating and making it all come together.

A: Quality, ear friendly and of course bass!

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: I bring new fresh ears, a good knowing for sound quality and some imagination.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: I usually start by quick-mixing tracks to see how the overall balance is between the different tracks. Once that's done I go over track by track and listen for inconsistencies or other detectable issues. Often It's mostly gain compensations and making the overall tracks sound even in volume, making sure all the instruments play on the correct beat and removing unnecessary junk that got caught in the recordings.

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

A: One of my absolute favorite guitarist is Estas Tonne, an absolute legend on the guitar. Infected Mushroom is the coolest producer duo I know of and their imagination for music seems endless. They can create music out of anything. Jamie Antonelli and his track Divine inspired me to start making music, the composition of the vocals and that cozy house groove just melted my mind, my dream is to one day be able to deliver that exact emotion through any of my productions.
