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

A: I started playing drums when I was 2, but I've never been as close to music as when I was 13, when I started making my first productions, in 2016. At 18 I started taking piano lessons. In the meanwhile I was working with my recording studio recording my clients. In 2023 I started the academy to get the Bachelor of Arts in Music Production.

Q: How would you describe your style?

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: I bring my idea of the music and the same vibe I always give to my songs, starting with my production template that allows me to characterize my productions with my sounds and, most of all, a kind of slight melancholy mixed with a very pop sound, all of this gets to a unique result.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: I start a conversation with artits about daily life so I can understand how they are. Then, I start by playing some chords or finding the perfect sound for the vibe we want to reach. While producing, I start proposing some lines as vocal lines, so we can start to write the lyrics. After that, I finish the production by adding fx, drums and everything else, before we start to record the song we gave life to. I always follow the project by start to finish to be certain that the song keeps with herself the same vibes it had at the beginning of the work. During the recording session I help the singer recording the lead vox, ear candy and harmonizing the vocal, also with choirs if necessary. After the recording, I edit vocals as I agreed with the singer/band and I talk with the mix engineer (if it's not me) and explain to him the sound we wanted to give to the song, touching base with him to understand how to get the best result. Last, I do the same with the mastering engineer.
