Music Production
Music production sessions are conducted in my tuned studio, Windsor Road, St Andrews Bristol BS6 5BP. Complete with a separate vocal booth and professional equipment the sonic results are second to none. Location is a stones throw from Gloucester Road with the proudly independent shops and is therefore only minutes from Montpelier Station. In addition, Windsor Road has unmetered on street parking.
The studio consists of an acoustically treated room, a separate vocal and guitar booth. Further still I’ve a separate live room for 1-3 musicians. Equipment hardware includes a workstation class Mac Pro 2019 paired with PCIe buss Lynx 16 digital converters, quality loudspeakers made by brands Adam and Genelec. In addition a handmade in Nashville tube microphone, analogue mixing desk, boutique pre-amps and compressors complete the sound. As a result your project will be full bodied, rich and ready for broadcast.
Singers, Songwriters, MC’s
Producing original music, recording vocals for demos or release, mixing and finally mastering. I can provide some or all these services so artists can choose better value. I’ve been playing keyboards and involved in music production since I was young and have solid music theory knowledge. More time on your music leads to increased song nuances, performance quality and timeless appeal. This is what working with a professional like myself with my unique experience will bring to the table. Please ask anytime for examples of my music and songs.
Band recordings
For band productions and the initial track-laying we can record at my studio or similarly we can choose a studio in or around Bristol Above all depending on what your productions require. After tracking your band we can bring the files back to my studio to complete with overdubs, mixing and mastering should that be required.
Mix & Master
Having trouble putting that final touch over your hard work? I often accept audio files from all over the world for mixing and mastering. I worked around London’s best mastering Engineers when I was employed at The Hit Factory London. From me you can expect a high quality, finely tuned and polished master working in co-operation with the artist/producer via Skype, Zoom, email etc..
