Singer / Songwriter / Producer

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

A: Victor Ayuso has mixed and mastered my tracks in the past, and I strongly recommend him. He's super friendly and efficient.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: What other songs have inspired your track? What kind of vocals do you like to listen to/want for your track? (e.g. belting chest voice, or softer)

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: My vocals are unique, and I sing with emotion. Have a listen to my Spotify Catalogue to get an idea of my voice, and if it's a good fit for your track.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: For toplining, I listen to the instrumental track, and come up with a vocal idea. I then send the track back to see if it's the kind of vibe you're after, if happy, I will then melodyne and produce the vocals, with harmonies and send the stems individually.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: I work out of my Santa Monica studio, using Ableton 12 Suite. For vocals I use Melodyne. I have a Shure SM7dB microphone, Nord Stage 3, Fender Stratocaster, & Cole Clark Angel acoustic guitar.

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

A: Jamie xx, Fred Again.., Ben Böhmer, Lorde, Kevin Parker

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

A: Most of my work involves collaborating with EDM artists to add vocals. They'll send an instrumental over, and I'll write and sing a topline. Instead of just sending raw files, I deliver fully produced vocal stems- written, recorded, and tuned in Melodyne, so the heavy lifting is done for you. I’m shifting my focus toward session work and uncredited vocals right now, so if you need a professional sound for your next release without the 'featured artist' tag, let’s talk.
