Vocal + Music Production

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

A: I released a track that I fully produced and sang myself, and it is organically gaining streams and generating income for me.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: Working in two collab tracks with the UK artist

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

A: Not yet

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Digital because it is the future

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

A: Fast and professional

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: I like independence

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

A: Most customers usually ask how long a project will take, how many revisions are included, and what I need from them to get started. I always tell them it depends on the project, but I’m flexible with revisions as long as we’re moving toward the right result. To get started, I usually just need a demo, stems or a clear idea of the direction and any reference tracks if they have them.

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

A: A common misconception is that music production is just about making things sound loud and polished. In reality, it is a creative process that’s about emotion, ideas, and storytelling. Another misconception is that tools or AI can replace the human ear, but real taste and emotional decisions still matter the most

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: I usually ask what the main goal of the track is, what mood or emotion they want to convey, and if they have any reference tracks. I also ask about deadlines, the intended platform or use (release, sync, personal project), and how involved they want to be in the process

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

A: Be as clear as possible about your vision and, if you have them, share reference tracks. The more context I get, the more precisely I can deliver the sound you’re aiming for. Even rough ideas or unfinished demos are absolutely fine I can shape them into a polished final result.

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

A: I’d probably keep it pretty minimal but functional: A laptop with my DAW An audio interface A good condenser microphone A pair of reliable headphones And a small MIDI keyboard for writing ideas That way I can still record, produce, and stay creative anywhere.

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: I’ve been involved in music since the age of 6. I sang gospel in a children’s choir in the USA, and I also sang in the children’s choir of the Bolshoi Theatre. I’ve been an RnB singer, DJ, MC, and music producer for both my own projects and commissioned work. I also taught vocal training for a while, but that is the least interesting part for me.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: As an artist, I am bold and uncompromising. As a music producer, I work in the style requested by the client.

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: My main goal is for every artist who comes to me to get exactly the result they expect. I am an artist myself, so I fully understand what is needed. It doesn’t matter to me whether someone is well known or completely unknown. I am ready to help anyone who needs my support as a professional.

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: https://open.spotify.com/album/0vLvFkzqkWv28uONWGOj38

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

A: I work across different electronic music genres including drum and bass, house, jungle, garage and pop, and I also take on sound design projects for commercials, travel blogs and more.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Vocal ability, perfect pitch, and fast workflow.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: If we are talking about creating a song from scratch, I aim to make it meet all modern sound standards. It’s very important that the track is not overly compressed or too quiet, and that it always has memorable sonic elements, unless there is a different request. If we are talking about re-arranging AI-generated music, the main goal is to bring the track to a level of uniqueness and emotion, which are always missing in generated songs.

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: When it comes to vocal work, I listen to the demo, load all the vocal stems, and start cleaning, aligning, and mastering the tracks one by one. It usually doesn’t take much time. When it comes to music production, it depends on whether the client provides a reference or not. With a reference, I start shaping the style and mood accordingly. Without a reference, I create based on intuition and feeling. When it comes to vocal recording, it also depends on the client’s request and my vocal abilities.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: I have a music studio in the center of Vilnius. DAW: Cubase Pro 15 (I’ve been working in Cubase for 20 years) Microphone: Rode Classic II and preamp: SPL Gain Station Active monitors: Dynaudio Acoustics Keyboard: Korg TR88

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

A: I love Jamaican and British music culture. But I grew up on Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston.

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

A: People often come to me for vocal work because I have perfect pitch, so I immediately hear off-key notes. At the same time, I preserve a natural human vocal sound, meaning I don’t turn it into something robotic. I also create arrangements in modern genres, and with the rise of AI I now have more work re-arranging AI-generated music to give it a unique original character. I am also a professional vocalist and can sing in a wide range of styles, as well as create large choral stacks using only my own voice.
