I'm a Music Producer, and a Recording and Mix Engineer from Sheffield, UK.

APPROACH

Each band has a sound, which is usually the sound they produce when they play together. If the singer needs a mic to be heard, then that band’s sound already relies on technology. But take technology too far, and you lose the essence of their sound.

All my productions sound as loud and energetic as the experience you have when you hear them play together – even when you turn the volume right down…

… that’s what technology is for me.


TECHNIQUE

I’m constantly innovating new production, recording and mixing techniques – and I don’t just mean I have all the latest whizz-bang plug-ins. And I’ve developed a post-production style that has become just as important to my recordings as pre-production.

I make each production better than the last by stubbornly pursuing what I consider to be great production style, while jarring my mind open to bands’ production influences…

…plug-ins don’t make great productions – I do!


OUTCOME

A good recording becomes a great production when people can easily identify it, and identify with it. So just as a well-produced album hangs together as a single work, so everything a band is (songs, clothes, lyrics, ethics, lighting, sound, artwork, performance, etc.) should be indisputably THAT BAND…

…this is what I capture.


BIOG

I'm a Music Producer, and a Recording and Mix Engineer from Sheffield UK.

My family were profoundly musical when I was growing up, and I was classically trained from an early age. But when I discovered alternative rock in my mid-teens, it completely changed my perception of “good music”. I taught myself guitar and bass, and I've been in bands ever since, constantly expanding my musical taste and appreciation.

I produced my first album when I was 19 and developed my sound engineering skills throughout my 20s in studios like Jump Recording Studio and the much reputed Yellow Arch Studios. I also got really slick during 9 years as a live sound engineer, working in well-known venues like the Leadmill, and touring venues like Cardiff Arena and Hammersmith Apollo.

In 2006, I opened up Ebb-Tone Recording Studio in Sheffield with my band mates. The sound quality of the studio has improved massively because of the investment made possible by success. I’ve been lucky enough to record every kind of band in every kind of style, including a whole bunch of albums.

When I produced Downslide’s self-titled debut album, we worked really hard together to produce something unique but honest. We used their influences as a focus: accessible urban flavours with heavy guitars and vocals. I'm dead pleased with the sound and the shape of the album, and especially that it's a true reflection of the band as they are.

I also produced “You’re An Ocean Deep My Brother” by Firesuite, which I really think is a classic album: relentless in places, mournful and evocative in others, and definitely an album that is much weightier than the sum of its constituent tracks. We did it together, and the form, sound and musicianship make it a real artistic success.

Beard Shaper BIO

What seemed a long time ago now, I used to run Just Good Music PR and Itchy Pig. I held residencies in Sheffield and played a lot across the UK (with the odd stint across the globe). DJ'd alongside many of the people I looked up too and got to call quite a few of them friends as time went by. 

I shut everything down a few years back and called it a day. Business was struggling and me and my business partners decided to split. I was partying too much and hiding depression - filling the void was something I could do only for so long. It wasn't long after I had a mini-breakdown. 

At the same time I was working on my album when I lost everything due to a hard-drive malfunction and decided to call it a day with music. I've not done anything in the industry since.

Years later I'm slowly getting a taste for it. I'm naturally getting back into mixing and working on some music (also found some of the files for the album and working on getting that in place). 

Certainly not going at it like I did previously. However it feels good to be doing what I love again.
