David LeSal on SoundBetter

Spoken word vocalist with 100+ million Spotify streams here to elevate your tracks. From tech house hooks to longer spoken word stories and everything in between, let me help you put your vision into powerful words.

I have worked with producers and Djs from around the world. Most notably with DJ Headhunterz in the Dutch Hardstyle scene where our track "Our Church" received a gold record. I still work in the hardstyle scene but lately have focused on Tech house (Releases on labels such as: Toolroom, Myth of Nyx, Techne, Realm) and Indie Dance (Octopus, Siona, Jeahmon). Songs featuring my vocals have been played by Mau P, Solomon, Vintage Culture, Gorgon City, Ben Hemsley, and David Guetta to name a few.
I love a good challenge and can write in almost any style from hip hop, to hooks, to more poetic stories about dance lifestyle. I work fast and usually generate multiple options for you to choose from. Send me a message and let me show you what I can do for your current project!

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I was discovered by top 100 DJ Headhunterz. He made a hardstyle anthem with my voice and later we made an album together. I worked a lot in that scene but decided to take on a new performing name and go after my true passion for house and techno. It's been so much fun and a lot of learning.
Q: How would you describe your style?

Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I usually dive deep into a project spinning it in my head endlessly. I like to quickly freestyle a bunch of options and start teo see which ones feel like a good fit. Then I present the best ones to the client for feedback and revision if necessary. I write and work fast, I have done this for years so it's natural to me now.

A: I usually provide Toplines (vocal ideas) for producers of tech-house, house, and techno (also EDM, Indie dance, and hardstyle). Sometimes a track is built around my vocals, or sometimes I write vocals to fit a track.
