Producer and multi-instrumentalist based at The Church Crouch End (London). I am all about the music :)
Been in the industry for 15 years, working with great artists in both studio and live - see credits below.
I specialise in song-based music - Rock/Acoustic/Soul/R&B, real instruments are my specialty!
I use samples and synths a lot too - this completely depends on what you bring to the table.
Song is king, and always I want to hear to what you're working on first - co-write if we need to, or produce straight away.
I work with singers regularly - I know how to make you feel comfortable and give your best performance!
I have a high-end studio in North London where finish songs to master quality. All the tracks on this page are my production and mix.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Apart from my gear highlights (SSL 4056 Console and Telefuken V676 Preamps), I use Logic X and Protools (equally!) with great industry standard plugins and software. I have the highest-end guitars and guitar magic-boxes (that's a tech term haha), and a few outboard sound modules. My vocal chain consists of a Neumann U87i > Urei 1176 > Telefunken V676 > Apogee Symphony
