Work with me
Thoughtful ears.
A creative partnership.
Mixing
You’ve put the heart into your recordings. I’ll help each part find its place—bringing depth, clarity and movement to the mix while preserving the character of your performances.
We’ll start with your rough mix, references and what matters most to you, then shape a sound that feels like your music and translates across listening systems.
Remote mixing available.Producing
A creative partnership, from the first demo to the finished record. We’ll explore arrangements, draw out performances and make the recording choices that give your songs their own identity.
Whether you’re developing one song or a full album, I bring a musician’s ear and a producer’s perspective—keeping the big picture in view and the feeling of the song at the centre.
Consulting
A fresh set of ears, an honest conversation and a clearer sense of direction. I can help you assess your material, prepare for recording and decide where to put your time and resources.
We’ll consider where your work fits, who it might connect with and how creative decisions support your longer-term goals, then turn that perspective into practical next steps.
