Interview with Gregory David

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: The Project I'm currently working. I treat every mix the same, with love and care, and consideration to what the client wants. All the songs I've written, and or mixed are equally my favorites.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I'm currently making music for sync licensing libraries and Producing Rappers, and singers.

Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I get to create music everyday. Its my true passion in life, and I've worked hard to be able to animate whats in my head musically.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What kind of vibe are you looking for? What kind of emotion are you trying to capture? Is there a particular era of music you're trying to replicate. Do you have a story board? What instrumentation are you looking for, and what kind of nostalgic elements are you trying to convey.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: If your looking for a "yes man" I'm not your guy. If you're looking for some one to be blunt and honest, hire me. I'll give you my honest un-filtered opinion. I'm only looking to make the best art possible.

A: I normally start with drums, or percussion & build the song from there. I track all the instruments myself one at a time until I have the right ingredients to continue thru completion.
