Studio WES on SoundBetter

SOUNDBETTER OFFER: Piano or synth parts for just $50. Composer, producer & multi-instrumentalist creating emotional, cinematic indie-pop, hip-hop and R&B. From expressive piano and lush synths to full productions, I help artists turn ideas into records that truly connect.

Hi! I'm Wessel, a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and artist based in Paris.

I specialise in emotional, cinematic productions that blend indie-pop, alternative, hip-hop and R&B. Whether you need expressive piano, warm synths, Hammond organ, additional instrumentation or a complete production from scratch, my focus is always the same: making the song feel something.

As the producer behind my own artist project NEWĀRK, I write, produce and arrange every release myself. I've also collaborated with artists across multiple genres and performed over 100 live shows and festivals. With more than 20 years of piano experience and a strong jazz background, I combine musicality with modern production to create records that feel organic, rich and timeless.

I can help with:

• Full music production
• Piano (acoustic & electric)
• Synths & sound design
• Hammond organ & keyboards
• Songwriting & arrangement
• Bass, guitars & additional instruments
• Cinematic compositions

I believe the best productions are the ones that serve the emotion of the song. I'm easy to work with, communicate clearly throughout the process and genuinely care about delivering something we're both proud of.

If you're looking for honest musicianship, cinematic textures and productions with character, I'd love to hear your ideas.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Interview with Studio WES

  1. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  2. A: My strongest skill is bringing emotion and depth to a track through keys and arrangement. Whether it’s a minimal piano part, lush chord voicings or full cinematic textures, I know how to shape the mood and feel of a song in a way that supports the artist’s message. My jazz background gives me a strong harmonic foundation and my experience as a multi-instrumentalist and producer helps me see the full picture of a song. What it needs, what it doesn’t, and how to make it hit just right. I’m especially good at listening deeply and translating abstract ideas into sound.

  3. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  4. A: My studio is a mix of high-quality analog and digital gear. I play and record primarily on my Nord Stage 3 for its broad sounds and feel, above this one I have the Roland Jupiter-80 for lush synth textures and cinematic layers. For deep, expressive analog tones, I use the Moog Sub 37, which adds warmth and character bass to my productions. Vocals and acoustic instruments are captured with a Warm Audio WA-87 R2, giving me clean, rich recordings with a vintage touch. I also play an Art & Lutherie acoustic guitar, an Epiphone Les Paul 100 electric, and an Ibanez BTB200 bass, which I regularly use for layering and writing. And for when inspiration strikes, there's even an old trumpet in the corner. It’s all about vibe and creativity in my space.

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

  6. A: I’m inspired by artists and producers who blend emotion with innovation. Musicians like Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans and Robert Glasper push the boundaries of harmony and groove in ways that feel both fresh and soulful. On the production side I admire people like Finneas, Rick Rubin and Mike Dean for their ability to create cinematic, emotionally charged soundscapes that serve the artist’s voice. I also draw a lot from classic icons like Stevie Wonder and Bowie who were true multi-instrumentalists and storytellers. Their creativity and fearless experimentation inspire me to keep evolving and stay authentic in my sound.

  7. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  8. A: The most common type of work I do is crafting full productions and recording dynamic piano or keyboard parts for artists, producers and filmmakers. Whether it's building a track from scratch, adding rich harmonies, or layering synths and textures, I bring musicality, emotion and polish to every project. My jazz background and multi-instrumental skills allow me to adapt across genres like pop, r&b, indie, hip-hop, and cinematic, while keeping the sound unique and keep focusing on the artists. I’m often brought in to elevate a song’s feel, fill in missing elements, or create something totally fresh that fits the client’s vision.
