Interview with Harry Lee

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: so am focusing a lot of my time in my new Pop/Rnb type project Blakey. I currently and singing and producing it.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Hate this question! Soul, warmth, feeling, musicality -the things that are actually important in music, arent either analog or digital.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I promise I’ll make it sound as good as I can to the taste of the artist.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: However it manifests, finding the sweet spot in a project. Usually the point at which I won’t be able to hold back a smile because it sounds good and gives a shiver!
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Just be yourself and open and honest with what you want!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Mac Laptop 15in 2017 3.2 quad core Logic Pro X UA Twin Interface Shure KSM42 ATH-M50x Headphones
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Mainly melodic, pop, RnB, or House Production.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I was brought up on Jazz when I was a kid, so I my default skill is understanding the melody and chords and how they intertwine with the rest of the project.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: It obviously varies from project to project, but if I'm producing a track for someone who is singing, I will figure out the basic chords and groove going and then record the vocal over that - Vocal is king and should be given most attention for most projects, and then I will build up, layer around the voice.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Never over compress!
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Understanding what the client wants on an emotional level, and realising that with my ears.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I mainly use Logic Pro through a Universal Audio Twin II interface - which has some of the best, if not the best preamps out there in my opinion. I have a variety of guitars, and vocal mics and keyboards. I run through Genelec 8030A monitors and have a very large collection of soft synths and mixing plugins including Native Instruments Komplete, Arturia collection, Omnisphere, Soundtoys, to name but a few!
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: The key is to get inside the head of the client. Understand where he/she/they are coming from and where they want to go to. When it comes to producing an artist, I will usually ask for reference artists/tracks to help understand the soundscape they are looking for. When it comes to me featuring my vocals on another project, I try to get into the feeling of the music the way they want.
