I build songs.
I'm a young producer, multi-instrumentalist and lyricist from London - my services include producing, beat-making, synth-arranging (namely from the Prophet 6), drum-charting and lyric-writing. I can take your ideas, however fragmented they are - and translate them into a cohesive aesthetic, with a unique individual sound. If it doesn't feel different, then you can send it back free of charge.
I've got lots of studio experience producing for up and coming London musicians, rappers and vocalists. Just listen to my portfolio and you'll see what I mean.
Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.
Interview with Harry Futura
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Be clear with what you like and you don't like... provide me with references... I work best with those!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: A Grand Piano and my Gretsch is all I need.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been doing this for around 5 years and don't see myself stopping for the next 50.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Exuberant.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: James Blake. The way he samples himself is incredibly captivating.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: If it sounds right, it is right.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Normally somewhere between alternative pop and trap music. But I have done classical arrangements and often experiment with composing piano concertos.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Orchestration.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Unique flare, too often do you hear the same harmonic arrangement, same sounding synths, boring drum patterns and dull un-inventive lyrics and hooks. I'm here to provide your track with a stand-out style while also keeping it commercial and Spotify playlist ready. If you're just looking for synth arrangement or synth backing, what more can you want with the prophet 6? ;)
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I find starting early in the morning is the best way to get stuff done.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: The DAW I use is Logic Pro X. I have a mix of analog and digital gear - my analog collection includes: - Prophet 6 - Korg Minilogue XD - Behringer Vocoder - Behringer Rhythm Machine - Maschine Mk3 Digital gear includes: - Expansive NI libraries and effects - Expansive Waves plug-ins and effects - Antares Auto-Tune Pro - Soundtoys Little Alterboy - XLN studios Retro-colour
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I like to take influence from all genres of music: from modern artists such as James Blake and Childish Gambino, to Miles Davis, Bill Evans and all the way back to Bach and early monastic hymns. An eclectic arsenal of inspiration allows me to bring idiosyncratic flares into modern music, and studying jazz and classical harmony has equipped me with an insightful understanding into how I can make your tracks clean and yet ear-catching, with individual character.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Producing instrumentals and co-writing songs with individual artists.
