20+ years of radio experience, 25 years as a DJ, I trust my ears and my years. Let's make some songs!
I'm Jimmy. My offering is comprehensive music production, designed to elevate your artistic vision into impactful, professional, and memorable tracks. My primary service covers the full spectrum: from collaborative songwriting and arrangement development.
With 20+ years of radio experience, I've spent decades on the front lines, understanding what captivates listeners, what gets airplay, and what defines a hit song across diverse genres. This means I bring an A&R perspective to every project. Coupled with 25 years as a DJ, I have an innate instinct for rhythm, groove, energy, and what makes people move – physically and emotionally. This real-world, audience-facing experience is my unique specialization: crafting tracks that are not only sonically excellent but also connect deeply with listeners and possess commercial viability. I specialize in Hip Hop, R&B, Pop, and Electronic with a focus on strong melodic hooks and dynamic arrangements.
Why hire me? Because I trust my ears and my years – and you can too. My dual background isn't just a resume; it's a finely tuned instrument for understanding what works in music. I don't just produce; I partner with you to unearth the core of your song.
