EDM/Pop Vocalist & Songwriter

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

A: I commonly get asked about my turn around time. I usually work this out in the proposal process with my clients but it really depends on how far along the project is and what state it currently is at. Additionally, I do not work on weekends. I am too busy so any times/days quoted are business days Mon-Friday.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: I just wrapped up a Tech House Vocal Pack called 'Hysteria' over at Evolution of Sounds and am now working on a Dark-Techno Vocal pack as well as my continuation with clients.

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

A: Yes! Noah Lloyd (Haterade)! He is a world class sound designer, mixing and mastering engineer, as well as producer. With club hits that have reached millions of streams, samples packs curated by him, it's pretty amazing you can reach him and work with him through SoundBetter.

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

A: I PROMISE to put in every once of energy and passion into our work together, just as you have put in the time and effort to get to this point!

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: I love seeing the reaction of my clients when they listen to what I have created for them. I feel like I can see them light up through our conversation and it feels good to deliver them a product that they can't wait to build upon.

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

A: Vocals are not simply talking or singing into a microphone and calling it a day. There are many, many obstacles crossed when creating the vocals needed to exceed a clients expectations! It is a meticulous and time consuming process just in the audio processing alone.

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

A: Establish your budget, have a clear idea as to what you are expecting, & see if that provider can help you get your expectation met.

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

A: Great Question! I would absolutely not take any studio gear and probably just stick to some survival basics like Ice Cream, Mayonnaise, my Nespresso Machine... you know, applicable things!

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: As a Tech House producer and vocalist myself, I usually stick within that genre. Stylistically I like to have more vocally driven songs. Mastering wise I just want that track as loud as possible without giving up too much dynamics. So, I would say vocally lead groovy tracks!

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

A: This one is tough I have different artists for different things but I would have to go with one of the GOAT's Chris Lake, no explanation of course!

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: A little limiting goes a long way :) Soft clipping and limiting on grouped channels in the mixing stage, even to the slightest amount, can really help the mastering and vocal process!

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

A: All types of music! Tech House, Deep House, Progressive House, Drum n Bass, Techno, Pop; and even country pop crossovers!

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Top-line vocal melodies. In this industry, its all about writing catchy hooks and hits that leaves a lasting impression on fans and listeners alike!

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: I bring original & catchy male vocals that have a professionally polished sound and uniqueness.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: I like to start out by writing to where I feel most inspired in a given section of my clients song. In my personal work for my own project, I write specifically around the drop and build the song around that.

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

A: Vocals/Songwriting & Mastering

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

A: I would say Reverend Haus. That is one of my projects. It's allowed so much growth and opportunity that I really am thankful for.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Analog emulators :) I have found digital is great for anything subtractive and Analog for increasing the gain/EQing. If you don't have analog gear, use analog emulators!

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: Whats your reference track?

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

A: Been doing this for 5 years and my career path is being full-filled through DJing and producing music!
