Lord Pusswhip on SoundBetter

I’m a seasoned producer, vocalist, composer, musical artist and engineer from Iceland, known in the world of the international hip-hop and electronic scene (credits: Joeyy, Ayesha Erotica, Odd Future, Bones etc.) My productions have been nominated for the Nordic Music Prize and more. I’m also a active sync composer (Adidas, Vogue, Pepsi, Netflix)

I can offer a variety of services, whether it be production, engineering, mixing/mastering, writing, composing or tutoring - I’m a jack of all trades. After all, producing for someone is more than just making the beat.

Although I’m mostly well known for producing other artists, I’ve been writing and performing my own music since a child - so if you have a melody, lyrics or even just a vague idea, I can help you bring it to life regardless of genre.

I can also engineer: whether it be recording / tracking / mixing or mastering. As I said, I have a lot of experience composing music for film, TV, radio, games and advertisements.

I recently graduated ‘Summa Cum Laude’ from the L.A. Film School with a 3.90 GPA from Audio Theory, after graduating ‘Cum Laude’ from the same school in Music Production.

As stated above, I have over a decade’s experience in all aspects of the music industry, as well as a decade’s experience in journalism for radio and print. I’m also a DJ and curator, having spun records live and on the radio everywhere from California to Tokyo, as well as hosting my own shows.

I have many years of experience producing and editing my own articles for the radio, so I'm very quick with any sort of editing. 've also worked as a re-recording mixer for film.

My forte is music production, although I’m excited to help with anything else you might be looking for.
