It was a real pleasure to work with Bastien. Super nice guy and super professional! Not sure if I had such a pro in my studio for vocals yet! When we recorded the first lines I immediately knew that i dont need to process the vocals a lot as they sounded perfect already. Go work with him :)

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Hmm, I'm still building my style and perfecting my craft, but I aim for genuineness and sincerity.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I would love to collaborate with lots of people that I've admired for such a long time like Disclosure, SG Lewis, Troye Sivan, Lauv, Jamie Woon, Sabrina Claudio, Christine and the Queens and the list continues :))

Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Well, I think I have a pretty soulful voice and that brings life to every song, so that's one of my assets. Another one that I can consider is what I can do with my creativity, like adlibs and creating harmonies packages.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: After I have all the information from the client, like the instrumental, the type of vocals he needs, references, etc, I start listening to the track a few times, and then start recording following his direction. After I think I checked all the requirements, I do 2-3 tracks of freestyling and that's it.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a pretty basic home studio setup for now. I work within Ableton on a Macbook, with a Scarlet 2i2 audio interface, Rode NT1 microphone, KRK RP5 RoKit Classic monitors, and Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro headphones.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I'm really inspired by the production and sonics of James Blake, Jamie Woon, Tame Impala, Frank Ocean.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: The most common work people ask from me is recording vocals (lead + harmonies/backings), but also writing the topline and the lyrics.
