I work with artists and people in many different capacities. Many want mixing services, others want production work. Some just find that having me around is a good omen or that they needed a few casual conversations. Not only have I been at practice for 20+ years with music and art, I’ve been at practice in building relationships and trust with people from all over. The thing is, it is still a living breathing practice of mine daily. I’ve met artist in all sorts of different circumstances. I may have dropped a funny line on a post of theirs on social media. I may have ran into them completely unrelated to art like in the middle of grocery store, bumped into them at a bar, serviced by them at their side job, lounging in a park, etc. Others even started as co-workers.

I haven’t ever built fascination over a person by what kind of contributions of stature I imagined I could pull from them. I’m of the belief that after meeting someone, remnants of their spirit are left behind. Yeah, there’s a shelf life for how long it lingers. Sometimes it’s a few hours, sometimes its days. I use that invisible matter to create ideas. Creative ideas. I may be creating something and their face or our interaction may play in my mind. Call it strange but I find it to be apart of the wondrous and weird process that is art creation. Even if the face or interaction itself has nothing to do with what is being created. I’m a meticulous but intentional creator and person in various landscapes. Rather it be in the throes of actual art creation or casual everyday interaction with the environments and others around me.

I deem myself a personable person with an interest in how the mind (and later the emotions) of a person operates. I don’t like to reduce people to being just “clients”, although the reality is, sometimes that’s all that was needed for us to be. I have those cut and dry relationships too. You desire a mixed record, you send me the song, I mix, you review, and we move on. For the rest, an evolved partnership sometimes unfurls. I learn what it is that excites your mind, you learn not to send me a plethora of unnamed tracks that make up verse one (joke). I love laughter and fellowship with like-minded (and even B Side minded) individuals. Some say I’m smooth and quiet. Some say I’m deadpan, serious, but funny.

I think I’m all of those things at a point plus more things you’ll like.

Yes, your product matters and that’s what you’ll be here with me for, but I’m hardly worried about the quality of work I will service you, that is a must. If it isn’t up to your standard, I have no problem working till it pains me in order to fulfill a service or simply return your monetary submission. I don’t suspect that will ever be our circumstance.

I’m hoping to find out more about you and why you create how you do!
There’s art to be made and why not let it be us strange folks that ushers it out there!
