An emphasis on REAL - I strive to keep the techniques of the 70's-90's alive with organic and honest mixing in a console based way. Mixes that have made bands like Nirvana, Oasis, Black Sabbath and Foo Fighters sound like the bands they are. If the source is good, the mixes will be great!
I've been obsessed with music for as long as I can remember and was lucky enough to have access to endless cassette tapes from the 70's and 80's.
My first paid gig was when I was 12 and ever since I've not stopped working.
Using my experiences and knowledge gained I am looking forward to working on your project. I love the creative process and seeing music come to life.
I have played and recorded with members of Queen, cruised the Mediterranean with Bon Jovi and shared festival stages with Iron Maiden, Motley Crue, Alice Cooper and Def Leppard.
I specialise in anything under the rock umbrella with a large focus REAL, organic and honest sounds.
I'm in the box like so many now but am using the worlds best emulations of analogue gear to create console based mixes.
