Overgrown is a project of love that was born out of my own frustration with expensive, sterile production studios. As a singer-songwriter myself, my priority is listening carefully to what's at the heart of your song and what message you want to send through your work, and then using my experience to bring that to life in production.
I am a producer and mix engineer based in the cosy 'Bank Studio' Sydney. I have a Diploma in Music performance at JMC Academy where I majored in voice with electives in audio engineering and production.
I'm a Sydney-based artist and I've been through a bunch of studios with different mix engineers, producers and expensive gear and would often find that while the end product was at a "professional standard" it wasn't always what I imagined my song would be. I would walk away with an empty wallet and what felt like someone else's song.
At Overgrown I provide the time and space for you to put your heart and soul into your music. I know when I'm creating music, most of the real magic happens when I'm writing alone in my bedroom away from the pressures of performing in a big studio. Great music doesn't just happen under pressure - it takes time and an environment that you can open up in. At overgrown my aim is to create a space that feels like your own and provide musical direction and creative input where needed.
This means you can come with a complete vision of your next song, or you can bounce your ideas and lyrics off me. I love to take a hands-on collaborative approach, but if you're already a super confident songwriter and recording artist, I am also happy to follow your lead and help mix the song the way you like it.

Endorse Overgrown Music Studio- check_circleVerified
great personal collaboration experience with attention to detail and emotions and tones I was trying to create throughout my songs!
I did a day session with Daniel recording my spoken word poetry and had an absolute blast!
We did two very different tracks and Dan helped me create backing music and sound effects that bought them to life! Will definitely do more sessions and highly recommend him for any spoken word or vocal work!Daniel From Overgrown Studios has been invaluable to me in the process of co-writing/ and producing countless songs for me.
His attention to detail, fluent communication and empathetic nature makes the process seem effortless. He listens to the vision i have for the song and elevates it while keeping the emotion intact. His easy-going nature makes working with him an absolute blast and it really shows in the music we have made.
I would highly recommend him to any Singer-Songwriters, Folk or Indie/Alt musicians looking for an experienced Producer to take their songs to the next level!
Dan brings an intimate feel to professional recording and mixing. After jumping around a few high end studios in Sydney I met with Dan and loved the laid back, attentive approach at Overgrown.
Dan offers his expert opinion when asked but never controls the direction of the songs. He’s happy to jump on an instrument to help form ideas and is always striving to build an authentic song.
I’ve been recording at Overgrown studios with Dan for 2 years now and we’ve recorded songs that have been played all over the world and reviewed on TripleJ.
I absolutely recommend Overgrown Studios.
