Producer, Mixing, Guitarist

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: ----

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: I have been a ghost producer for several years, now totaling 8. I never decided to reveal myself or want my name in projects for work reasons; now I am free from any chains and want to be able to have fun directly, talking with the artist and exchanging ideas.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: I think it's too early to describe my style, but I love creating ethereal situations with intricate rhythms and harmonic evolutions.

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

A: I believe I have yet to meet the artist I would like to work with; obviously, there would be the names of my idols on the list, but I would like to share a journey, to know and help those who will be the idols of others.

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: Listen, listen, and listen.

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

A: I don't have genres; with the latest project, I worked in an area unknown to me, namely neo-psychedelia, garage rock, and rockabilly. I have worked with pop, alternative, indie, indie-pop, and rock artists.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Hear

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: Many pieces are finished before even realizing it, what I bring to a piece is a personal and new vision of the idea, trying to bring stylistic and characteristic ideas for the artist, contaminating, playing with the notes and sounds, all while respecting the idea.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: When I think about how I work, I can compare the process to a chat with a stranger: there's the getting-to-know phase, the exchange of ideas, and the interaction phase. Often, I try to think like the artist and search for their sound, the one reflected in the mirror.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: I love to be comfortable, it's what leads me to work with serenity. I don't believe in the need for complicated systems; music is art, and as such, it often doesn't need too much scheming. That said, the studio is made up of 3 main rooms: Drum Room, Control/session room, and the acoustic room, each interconnected and equipped with the latest management technologies. I own several amplifiers, various guitars, and high-end monitors. I have been using Focusrite audio interfaces for many years and find them to my liking; this defines my workflow.

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

A: Among the many producers and musicians, I adore the productions of Radiohead, BADBADNOTGOOD, Blur, Satelliti, OTU, The Smile, but I never limit myself to the artist; I love to contaminate my sources of inspiration. Nigel Goodrich and Sam Petts-Davis are among my references.

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

A: Many times, what is needed is an outside perspective and some fine-tuning; most of the projects I've been involved with only required a bit of inspiration and a good ear.
