songwriting
&
production
I can write songs across multiple genres both independently and collaboratively. I can create full backing tracks or work as a topliner. I have a fully equiped studio were I can work both remotely or in person to create the perfect sound for an artist or project.
What I Do
bespoke
composition
Working to brief I can create music across multiple genres to deliver a full music production of the highest quality. I will perfect the music to ensure that it works with a video edit - developing the music to hit peaks and drops - to time perfectly with the visuals - matching the pace and the mood of the project. I pride myself on taking on all client feedback to make amendments required and to deliver high quality fully mastered tracks.
