Reggae Producer, Mix&Mastering

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: I bring soul, depth, and authenticity. Every song I work on carries a piece of me whether it’s the energy of roots reggae, the pulse of dancehall, or the vibe of an urban fusion. I focus on making sure every element of the track has purpose, that it tells a story, and that it feels alive. I aim to create music that not only sounds good but resonates emotionally, music that sticks with you long after the track ends.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: My process begins with feeling the vibe whether it's a deep reggae groove or an urban twist. I start by sketching the core of the rhythm, allowing the instruments and melodies to evolve naturally, like a conversation between sounds. From there, I refine the details, ensuring the beat feels alive and speaks to the heart. Whether it's a custom riddim or a full track, my goal is to create something timeless, a piece of music that connects with the listener on a personal level.

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

A: One of the projects I’m especially proud of is my One Riddim productions. It’s not about the recognition, but about the energy captured in each artist’s voice. The strongest one has been the Samoa Riddim, a dream come true. It represents the collaboration and raw energy of everyone who participated, and it’s a project that truly resonates with me on a deeper level.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: Right now, I’m focused on finding a balanced blend between roots sound and modern influences, along with working on riddims and projects with local artists. It’s all about merging tradition with innovation.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: I prefer a hybrid approach — blending the best of both analog and digital. Analog offers warmth and character, while digital provides precision and flexibility. Together, they create a perfect balance for achieving the sound I envision.

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A: A common question I get is why I don’t have more recognition. My answer is simple: It's a mission, not a competition. The journey is about staying true to the art and letting the music speak for itself, not about rushing to recognition. It’s about creating with purpose, not following trends.

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

A: The biggest misconception about what I do is that perfection is always the goal. While striving for quality is important, being overly perfectionist can sometimes hinder the creative flow. Music is about feeling, energy, and connection not just flawless technicality. It’s about knowing when to let go and let the vibe speak for itself.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: I would ask: What do you want your music to communicate beyond the material? What emotions, stories, or messages do you want to evoke? Music has a spiritual dimension, and I believe that the energy behind a song can speak louder than any melody or beat. Understanding the deeper meaning of your project helps me create something that truly connects, not just sonically but emotionally and spiritually.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: Trust in the process and be open to collaboration. Music is a journey, and I’m here to help bring your vision to life, but the best results come when we communicate clearly about your ideas and expectations. Whether you're looking for a custom riddim, a unique sound, or a polished final mix, it’s important to be honest about what you want, while also being open to creative suggestions. The more you share about your vibe, influences, and goals, the more we can make something that truly resonates with you. Stay patient and trust that every detail counts—great music doesn’t happen overnight, but it’s worth the time and care we put into it. Let’s create something that speaks to the soul!

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

A: A sturdy knife essential for survival, but also useful for crafting simple instruments or objects to connect with nature in a creative way. A solar-powered charger not just for communication, but to keep my devices alive for musical inspiration, whether it's recording sounds, mixing, or even writing melodies. A journal and pen where I could write down ideas, reflect on my journey, and craft lyrics or music theory that resonate with the solitude of the island. Music is often born from moments of stillness. A fire starter kit for warmth and safety, but also for creating a sense of ritual. There's something elemental in gathering around a fire, whether to reflect, compose, or simply enjoy the rhythms of nature. A guitar my companion through every moment. The strings would carry my emotions through the silence, providing a constant source of sound, inspiration, and connection with the island’s pulse. In a way, each piece not only serves to keep me alive but to preserve my connection with creativity, grounding me through both the physical and emotional landscapes. The guitar, like the island, would be my sanctuary both a tool of survival and of musical expression.
