Working With Others

How I Work:

I mostly work alone but i love to do remixes and work with vocalists. i did a remake of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and didn't meet the vocalist until months after the track was done. if you're a vocalist with chops, please holla at me. rappers welcome, too.

i've been involved in the music business for almost twenty years. i have engineered, mixed or co-produced material for Thievery Corporation, Scientist, Sugar Minott, Frankie Paul, Half Pint (the reggae artist), Morel, and a bunch of other folks.

Equipment:

i'm old school and very basic. i use Sonar (been using cakewalk for about 15 years and i have some input with their development team) a guitar, a bass, and mostly soft synths.

I really love '' Um Favor'' what a great vibe and flavour, I'd love to do something with you like this- in a different way. I use sonar too, I make folk,bluesy jazzy flavoured ambient celtic/ethnic music with dub and classical influences- have a listen if you like- I'm sure not your taste but could be good. I have a great network of players we could use too. I am in the process of putting together an album purely with players from this website- that I think is great......Peace to you and get in touch if your interested
