Work
Here's a selection of some of my productions throughout the years. I don't mind too much which genre I am working in - there's so much to discover out there! I love listening to people telling their very own stories, no matter what vocabulary they use. And if the song speaks, everything will fall into place and I’ll figure out what it takes to get the message across and make the performance shine.
That reflects quite much in the methods and techniques I use during production: In all my priorities, I'll put the artist and his performance first. I can get quite mad about getting the vibe right in the recording room before starting and bringing people to their limits to get what we need. According to the people I worked with, I'm quite good at that. Having that captured and being on the way to the mixing desk, I like adding texture, depth and spice through some additional bits and pieces like (weird) instruments and percussion, further vocal arrangements… I’ll always have an arsenal of stuff and ideas ready to add wherever and whenever needed.
To get big picture right, I am a friend of getting involved early in the process: Shared preproduction, exchanging demos and ideas, listening to great music, attending rehearsals, going out for drinks,… whatever possible, it’s great to get the creative process started to develop a common ground with the artist before hitting the studio where time is precious and limited.
