JuuL on SoundBetter

I will listen to your sound and match your wishes before presenting a project to you. Let me know what your aim is from the start and I will deliver!

26 Year-old Portuguese producer living in Oxford Uk. I love music and have been producing and singing since I was 17 years old. I have released many projects on my own that you can listen to on my Soundcloud Link.
I particularly like producing and mixing R&B and Pop tracks, however I am open to challenges.
If you decide to give me an opportunity to be involved in producing or mixing your track I will honour the trust given to me and will do my best to deliver a sound that is meaningful to you and that you identify with. My aim is to help you find your sound and contribute to your development.

Interview with JuuL

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

  2. A: Chris Lorde Alge because he has learned his way to where he is today and he has got a very simplistic but correct way to approach a song.

  3. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  4. A: Do not try to make all instruments in a track sound beautiful: in a track, in order for some elements to shine, others need to be in the background to support that.

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

  6. A: I love R&B, soul, and pop music, but, I have worked before with Rock projects as well.

  7. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  8. A: My goal is to match the clients expectations as much as possible. My approach is to make the "star" elements of the song the drivers of the song and everything else "supporting acts" - that is the way I believe brings balance to a track and does not take the listener's attention from what is driving the song. I like to ask every client for a few reference tracks to try to match the sound I create with.

  9. Q: What's your typical work process?

  10. A: I am a full time worker on another job, therefore, my workflow is usually best on weekends and days off. I like to first listen to the song as it is provided by the client and identify the main elements of the song and mix everything around those elements. Those elements are usually the vocals, drums and in some genres guitars or a few synths or keyboards. As I am developing the project I compare it with the clients references.

  11. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  12. A: I produce, record and mix my projects on my home studio in Oxford, UK:

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

  14. A: Creatively as a singer and producer I am inspired by R&B artists like Alicia Keys, Usher, Mari J Blidge and more contemporary artists like Kehlani, Chris Brown, H.E.R. and SZA. My mixing examples are Chris Lorde Alge, Mosty, Jason Joshua and Dave Pensado.

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

  16. A: I have producing and recording my own projects for over 6 years now. Recently, I have been more focused towards mixing and production jobs, however, I have great experience in tracking vocals and keyboards as well.
