music producer, beat maker, and mixing engineer based in Nashville, TN. My work includes everything from producing, programming, and mixing on many label releases in the CCM world, working with big names in the country music scene, and even creating custom music for film and TV and was a recipient of a 2015 Juno Award (Canadian Grammy equivalent)
The work I do falls into three categories that sometimes overlap:
Producing, Programming, Mixing
Producing - I take full responsibility for the quality of the finished product. You send me lyrics and melody and I handle everything - charting songs, engineering, hiring musicians, programming, mixing and mastering. I hone in on your artistic direction and take it from concept to reality. The price is an all-inclusive budget that covers everything. I am also able to provide different pricing tiers to cater to everything from demos, indie budgets, all the way to full-fledged album masters.
Programming - beat making, track building, whatever you want to call it. I program electronic sounds or edit organic elements into a track for your song. I specialize in making pop tracks. My influences are Zedd, Skrillex, The Weekend, Benny Blanco, Shellback, Max Martin, and just about anything put out by Dr. Luke's crew.
Mixing - I am a mixing engineer able to take your recording and squeeze the best out of it. Do you have a specific sound in mind but can't seem to make it happen? I Can do that for you. I love full, wide, dynamic mixes that are energetic and exciting. My goal is to get everyone in the studio bobbing their head. In addition to mixing I will also tighten up the editing and vocal tuning. I mix "in the box" which means any mix revisions can be done quickly and easily.

This guy is awesome - professional, creative, and has a good sense of what makes a great tune. Will def be working with him in the future - his turnaround time is on point!
Nick produces my podcast and is fantastic to work with.
Nick and I have worked on multiple productions together. As a producer, he is extremely quick at engineering and super creative amongst many styles of music. He is great at providing specific feedback to the session musicians he hires for projects. His productions always turn out outstanding!
I was the Producer, programmer, guitarist in this production
Song production usually takes from one day up to a week depending on the complexity of the project. Beat making and mixing turnaround is usually 1 - 2 days. I will do up to 5 mix revisions.
