Raven is really talented and creates a polished result. His vocal and guitar production skills are particularly outstanding. During the limited time frame for the project, he remained professional but was also very accommodating. Can't wait to work with him again!

If you are looking for a high-end music producer than Raven is definitely your guy!

I've worked with so many different producers in the past, but this has been one of the best experiences yet! Definitely will recommend him to all my colleagues.

Worked with Raven on a song where he wrote the lyrics and vocal melody. The song turned out great thanks to Ravens professionalism and passion towards creating awesome music.

Interview with Raven Alexander

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I am developing my own artist project that I am very excited to show to the world.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital 100% because I can work on more than one song at once.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: We will get there.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: How social and antisocial it is at the same time. I love being in the studio with friends and coming up with cool songs and enjoy having my alone time with what we made and delving deep into the nuances of the song.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: Autotune bad singers 😂
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Definitely references of what they want their song to sound like.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and how I can help you get there.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I got into music at a very young age and made my first public performance when I was 4. My parents recognised my interest in creative arts before I did and enrolled me in guitar and music theory classes when I was 7 and I've stuck to it ever since.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Anyone who loves what they are doing and wishes to make a genuine impact with their music.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: To occasionally close your eyes and focus on just hearing the music. It is very easy to get sucked into what you 'see' in a DAW.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I have yet to turn down a project because of the genre.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My idea of a perfect collaboration is when I am a transparent veil that brings the artist's vision to life. It is 100% about the artist. I am here to amplify and resonate.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: My favourite part about making a song by far is getting to know the artist and seeing how the song grows into something that's not just uploaded to a streaming platform, but becomes part of the artist's 'story'.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work between different studios and am on the move a lot. The most important things are my laptop and headphones, but I have the luxury of working in front of a range of high-end studio monitors.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I am a big fan of anyone who has managed to turn their passion into their main source of income in this industry. There are songs that I connect with intensely and the thing I think they have in common is they make me feel what I assume the artist felt when making the track.
