adolanlan on SoundBetter

Musician with tons of experience in recording studios- production, composing, mixing and playing. Working with a lot of local musicians. Love the real old metal racks and old school sound and feel. I work with reel tape, and fully analog gear, a lot of vintage mics. If you’re into the real feel of Indie Rock music I believe we will get just fine.

My name is Ido, I work with a-lot of local musicians around and will be very happy to go overseas.
I was studying composition at the Jerusalem Music Academy, and keep learning all the time.
Love to experiment sound and possibility, from guitars through piano, drums and brass and basically everything that makes sound.
For the last few years I basically have been working on studios and making albums for musicians around. Playing, producing, arranging, mixing, and got some experience with work quick and attentive on deadlines- to give a full piece of music.
