Interview with Ankit D.

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: Are prices negotiable ? - Yes I am more than happy to work with clients on their budget
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Let me know the deadlines you are working with. From production & mixing to specific instrument work (guitar, keyboards, synths) - I provide support with mixing, arrangements, solos, synth layers. Provide me references, a BPM and the track samples and let's get to work! Don't be shy - music is a collaborative process!
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Give me a shot! Listen to my work and the samples in the provider bios! I'm big on collaboration - so if you've only just started visualizing the track or just need a guitar solo, I can help!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My Laptop (with Logic Pro), UA Apollo, Midi Controller, my Gibson, and an acoustic guitar!

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I offer services across Rock, Hard Rock, Blues, Country and EDM genres!

A: I help clients see tracks from a holistic angle. I provide custom work that truly fits the grooves and vibes to bring out the best in songs!
