If you listen to Electronic music, you might have heard one of my tracks, "Movements" already. It has amassed over 400 million streams worldwide... When it comes to creating music I love bringing the artist's vision to life and make it sound incredible. My music has no specific genres.
I'm really, really good at making type beats and recreating songs but I don't think that's what you should come here for. I'm best at making music that is unique and I offer great understanding of what creative expression should be. So if you're looking for tailor-made music that reflects your idea, or maybe yourself even - don't hesitate. My priority is to make the music personal to you and will stop only when you're happy with it. Unlimited revisions.
I like music that makes you feel, I like music that is a pleasure to listen to, especially on headphones - and my mixing reflects that well.
When it comes to mastering I prioritize making it sound better over using specific software or hardware - a lot of masters I've received over the years came out very different but not always better and that's why I pursued learning mastering too.
If you're willing:
- to spend some time preparing your references,
- think about what inspires you and makes you amped up,
- have a short chat or call with me about all the above,
- in case of mixing - prepare stems correctly! :)
Then you can be sure the result will surprise you.
I also do licensing for commercial - my music has been used in Hyundai commercials, Żabka and many smaller brands. I do briefings about what's the target medium (phone/internet/cinema) and target audience so the music always fits "like a glove" :)

Interview with Pham
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Most of the time I start with a conversation. I like to probe what my clients like and get inspired by and a lot of time I find something the client was not aware of yet gravitated towards. I like to take a lot of references and try to come up with something brand new that the references themselves would not indicate - for example if you like Bruno Mars but you also like hyperpop - I would figure out you like great and captivating arrangements. Finding the common denominators help me be grounded in what my client likes but also I'm free to innovate.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: It's a semi-treated room in which I work on headphones first. For efficiency I use a lot of plugins, but I don't hesitate to use my analog synths to spice up the work. I use Super-6 as my main weapon and for extra unique sounds I go to the SOMA Lyra. I use a Moog Sub 37 only when I need more bass. I don't really use the DX7 or Moog DFAM, those are for very rare use cases. I listen to music on Audeze LCD-2 and my monitors are Focals Shape 65.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I absolutely love the creativity and mellowness of Saya Gray, grooviness and confidence that resonates from Channel Tres's music, the depth of Burial's work and I could go on and on because every artist in a way makes me realize of how vast and awe-inducing is music in general. I can send you my playlists if you want to know more!
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Music production, vocal mixes, song mixdown, stem mastering and music for commercials - in that particular order.
