Endorse Joel Hammond
Interview with Joel Hammond
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I'm currently scoring an independent short film, as well as producing an EP and working on a series of pieces for D&D players!
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Alex Acheson is an incredibly talented electronic/pop producer who is always a pleasure to talk and work with. Highly recommend!
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That we need to be in a room together to make a song! Working remotely allows me to keep my rates affordable and I have all the tools I need to work closely with you, regardless of location.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What is the idea behind the song? What instruments can you hear on the song? What emotions do you want the listener to feel when they hear your song? What existing songs would you use as a reference, and what do you like about them?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Never be afraid to reach out to a producer to talk about your ideas. Even if we don't end up working together, we mostly just like talking to artists about their art :)
