Julien recorded two piano pieces I had written. He was very attentive and he understood my creative outlook perfectly. He plays with depth as well as skill. Pleasure to work with!

One of the best pianists I have ever worked with.
by Gianlorenzo Neri
I worked with Julien on a song, and it was a genuinely creative experience. His improvising, both on piano and vocals, is outstanding; he brings ideas that push a composition in new directions, right when it needs it. What really stands out is his enthusiastic, travolgente energy, it makes the whole process feel alive and interactive, turning writing sessions into something dynamic. He has the ability to break through creative blocks by being present and generous. Genuinely a pleasure to compose with!

Interview with Julien Lee

Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: originality, emotions, and most importantly, LOVE
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Jesse Will. Terrific singer-songwriter, heartfelt and soulful voice. collaborated with him a couple of times in recording and concerts.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: To be honest with you, it really is analog. you can feel the miniscule of difference in your touch and breath, the air, the room, and your heartbeat!
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I’ll make nothing less than excellency and heartfelt. and i’ll make sure to work on the track til you also feel it in your heart and bones.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: the people. i love to work with people and to catalyse new ideas. and of course to create beauty and knowing that my work is gonna make someone feel something
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: i have been trained as a professional classical pianist since I was 6. I rebeled against it and moved out of Hong Kong and went to film school when i turned 18. After traveling around the world I went back the conservatoire. and now i’m living in london, with all the drama that i learned and the lands that i marches and hearts that i have broken and integrate it in my music. i play piano improvisation concerts across london and produces music and write songs.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Billie Eillish and Finneas. Their melancholia. and the honesty is incomparable. Of course, the very smart song writing and the perfection of production. Rare to have musicians can bring such a personal and intimate insight and alternative style into mainstream stream pop music.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: trust your gut. avoid second guessing your intuition. if your ear tells you it sounds good, then it sounds good. if your heart tells you it needs a crescendo there, then yes you need that.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: classical improvisation and cinematic music, as well deep house and pop.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: piano improvisation, literally i can develop anything into a beautiful flower.
