Interview with Lia J

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: My own album. Well, two actually.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Bastido is a great friend and an amazing producer. Excellent for Hip-Hop, Rnb, Jazzy and Lo-Fi stuff.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both are cool, but analog has more heart to it.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I love singing. That's it. Have done it all my life, nothing better or more fulfilling out there.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That it's easy. You hire singers because they have a talent you don't. It takes years of practice and lessons to get to the point where you can use your voice like a real instrument. It's not just "record this for 20 minutes". It's years of practice and dedication mixed with talent.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Be specific about what you want. If you don't know that's fine. Be open to suggestions/ideas.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: A solar-powered charger, my MacBook, my e-guitar, microphone and cable, and my interface. I know that's six.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started writing songs at the age of 10. My style developed as me growing up. Music is my way of dealing with my emotions, so I'm not afraid of any topic. When I was 16 I got a little more into production. Started out with Garageband. 2 years ago I bought my own laptop and started setting up my home studio. Ever since I have been recording and releasing my work with artists from all over the world.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Giveon. Absolutely cherish this man's voice.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Don't overthink. Creativity is not something you can force and sometimes the simple things work better.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Recently, I have been getting more into Neo-Soul and RnB. I used to do a lot of Pop and House for friends.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: My voice is strong, yet versatile. I can change the tone, adapt to the genre and deliver powerful, delicate, or sexy vocals. Combined with my imagination this makes it very easy for me to write and record songs.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My skill is to write any song in a short amount of time with meaningful lyrics. Tips and insights on how to improve storytelling and powerful storytelling.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Depends how o how much work is already done. When writing my own songs I go with the flow. Otherwise, I brainstorm about the topic and use the images that come to me. Then, I write some lyrics and will revise them until I'm satisfied. I love making big choirs or mesmerizing harmonies, but will adapt to whatever you're looking for. .
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I use the Scarlett Studio bundle with the 2i2 interface or a Shure SM58 for recording. My instruments include an electric Yamaha Piano from the early 2000s, MIDI keyboard from Native Instruments, Fender Telecaster 2016, acoustic Taylor Guitar, Ukulele, Bongos, and Kalimba.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I like the legends from the 70s, and 80s like Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, Queen ... Contemporary I currently enjoy indie bands like Foals, Inhaler, or DIYs. Russ, Frank Ocean, Tyler The Creator, MGMT, or M83. Spanish holds a special place in my heart. Since my time in Mexico, I enjoy a variety of Mexican artists, like Zoé and Maná.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I come up with a topic if needed or give my insights, write the lyrics and melody and record my parts. To make it easier for producers, I cut my parts so they sound clean and won't need much editing. Also, I make sure everything is on pitch and on time, of course. Depending on what you need I can be more or less involved in the production of the lyrics/melodies.
