Colin Elliot

String arranger

Colin Elliot on SoundBetter

Mercury prize nominated producer and string arranger for Kylie Minogue, Self Esteem, Richard Hawley and others. I specialise in squeezing out the last bit of emotion from your song, paying attention to the feel and lyrics, finding harmony and counter-melody. Arrangements for software, quartet, or full orchestra. I have session musicians and studio.

Working from my studio, Yellow Arch, in Sheffield, I have been producing music for over twenty five years, and have worked on three Mercury Prize nominated albums. I am a producer, sound engineer and musician, but am particularly specialised in string and orchestral arrangements. I can work from your ideas, or bring my own, and can provide anything from a simple computer mock-up to a full orchestral live recording, depending on your wishes (and budget!). A good arrangement should enhance your song beyond what you may imagine, adding emotion, excitement, tension, filling those sonic holes and creating a flow that other instruments just can't realise.
