Ethan Loke on SoundBetter

Eclectic Folk / Indie / Singer-Songwriter producer and mix engineer that works with a unique soundscape and vision that can bring your track to life. Inspired by the likes of Adrianne Lenker, Noah Kahan, Big Thief, Phoebe Bridgers, and more.

I've worked with a wide variety of artists and songwriters to bring their visions into life. Starting out with my solo project under my name, Ethan Loke, I've garnered over 50,000 streams through tracks like "You'll Be Fine" and "Crescent Moon". Slowly, I started working with other local artists here in Singapore before expanding out to good friends that I've made overseas through music. I've worked with mastering engineers such as Alan Douches at WestWestSideMusic, as well as brilliant instrumentalists throughout the continental US and in Europe.

A talented songwriter, producer, and mix engineer, I am able to craft your vision into reality. Whilst I work primarily within the indie folk, folk-rock, acoustic, singer-songwriter genres, I thrive on challenges and am deeply inspired by the conversations and energy I get when I work with people from all around the world.

Feel free to ask me anything, I will be happy to help!

    I had the pleasure of recording violin tracks for Ethan’s song Stella. From the start, communication was smooth and clear. Ethan’s clarity in sharing his vision and influences made it easy to align musically. He gave me the space to bring my own interpretation while guiding the project with professionalism and intention. A truly smooth and inspiring collaboration, and I’m excited to hear how the final version will come together!

    Ethan has a great ear and was able to communicate what he was looking for in drum tones. Super fun song to work on, and I'd love to collab again!

Interview with Ethan Loke

  1. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  2. A: If you're looking for a great guitarist and a decent and down-to-earth guy to work with, Jacob Blizard is the man.

  3. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  4. A: My guitar, my harmonica, my computer, my Neumann TLM102, and my SSL interface

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

  6. A: To work with Adrianne Lenker would be mind-boggling. To work with some of or one of the boys from boygenius would be too.

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

  8. A: Folk, Indie folk, Singer-songwriter, Folk-rock, Folk pop, and the likes.

  9. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  10. A: I bring my own soundscape and eclectic vision, which many artists that work with me actually look for. I bring connection, authenticity, and a great result while we are at it.

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

  12. A: For songwriting, I am greatly inspired by Adrianne Lenker, who I deem one of if not the greatest songwriter of this generation. For guitars, I love the work that Phoebe Bridgers' team has done to shape the indie soundscape, as well as other guitarists like Buck Meek. Production wise, I am deeply inspired by Philip Weinrobe, Philip Etherington, Tony Berg, and more.

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

  14. A: I mostly do from the ground up productions, working on everything from the songwriter all the way to the mastering stage. I love to meet people and hear from them, so a lot of the work also is making connections and learning about their music.
