Producer,Engineer&Collaborator

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

A: My most personally rewarding project to date is one I'm unable to discuss publicly due to a confidentiality agreement, which in itself reflects how seriously I take client trust and discretion. What I can say is that it involved a full production from concept to commercial release, reached a significant audience, and remains a benchmark I hold my current work to.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: A mix of remote productions and collaborative sessions, always a few records in various stages simultaneously. Feel free to reach out about availability.

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

A: I'll update this as I build connections on the platform.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Digital without hesitation, specifically Ableton. The flexibility, speed, and precision of a well-built digital workflow is unmatched for the genres I work in. That said, analog with its warmth, movement, dynamics absolutely influences how I work digitally.

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

A: Clear communication, honest timelines, and a finished record you're proud to release. I don't disappear mid-project, I don't cut corners on the detail, and I don't deliver something I'm not satisfied with myself.

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: The moment a record comes together and does exactly what it was supposed to do. Emotionally, energetically, commercially. That moment is the same whether it's a major label release or an independent artist's first single.

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A: "Can you work to my deadline?" Yes, I build turnaround expectations into every project upfront and communicate proactively if anything changes. "Do you do revisions?" Up to 3 revisions are included in every project. "Can we keep this confidential?" Absolutely, NDAs are available upon request.

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

A: That production is just technical work. The technical side is a given at this level what actually separates records is creative decision-making, taste, and understanding what a song needs emotionally. That's the part that takes years to develop.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: What's the intended release platform and timeline? Who are your references? What's the end goal for this record, streaming release, live performance, label submission? And importantly what's your budget and revision expectation? Understanding these upfront means no surprises for either party.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: Come with a clear brief and honest references. The more specific you are about what you want sonically, emotionally, commercially the better the result. Vague briefs produce vague records. Great communication at the start saves everyone time.

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

A: Just give me 3 , my laptop , my headphones & a power outlet. Everything else can be built from there.

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

A: Over 10 years in music production, starting independently in Australia and gradually building into international studio sessions across Europe in places like Stockholm, Amsterdam, London, Berlin, and beyond. That journey has taken me through writing sessions, label projects, ghost production, and collaborative work with artists and teams across multiple territories.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: Precise, energetic, and emotionally driven. I work in dance music but I always prioritise feel over formula — records that move people, not just check genre boxes.

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: I'm most drawn to working with artists who have a clear sonic identity but haven't yet found the right production partner to fully realise it. The most rewarding sessions are always with someone who knows what they want but needs the right collaborator to get there.

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: Reference constantly and reference honestly. Your ears lie to you after hours in a session. A well-chosen reference track cuts through that immediately and keeps your mix and arrangement decisions grounded in reality.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

A: EDM, hard dance, pop dance, house, and mainstage records. Occasionally extending into adjacent genres depending on the project and client.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Mixing and ear for balance. Knowing exactly where every element sits in a record frequency, space, energy, and dynamics is something I've refined over years of working across genres and studio environments. A well-balanced mix is what separates a good production from a great one.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: A combination of technical precision and genuine feel. After 10+ years and sessions across some of the world's best studios, I've developed a strong sense of what makes a record connect emotionally and commercially. I bring that perspective to every project, regardless of size.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: It starts with understanding the brief, genre, references, mood, and intended platform. From there I work through arrangement and sound design, keeping the client informed at key milestones. Revisions are focused and efficient. The goal is always a record that feels intentional and finished, not just technically correct.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: My primary DAW is Ableton Live, which I've worked in for over a decade. My setup is built around a clean, fast, and flexible workflow optimised for dance music production, mixing, and sound design. Whether I'm in a world-class studio abroad or working remotely from Australia, the output standard stays consistent.

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

A: I draw inspiration from producers who operate at the intersection of technical precision and emotional impact the ones whose records feel as good as they sound. The EDM and dance music world is full of them, and staying close to what's moving on floors and charts keeps my reference points sharp.

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

A: Full music production and mixing for artists and labels working in EDM, hard dance, pop dance, and house. Most clients come to me needing a complete, release-ready record either from scratch or to take an existing idea across the finish line.
