The Process
More on this →Guitar
Electric guitar, arrangements and tones built to serve the song, not to show off the player.
Production
From the first idea through arrangement, recording and editing — shaping a song into a record.
Mixing
Balance, space, depth and dynamics, without losing the character of the original performance.
Mastering
Preparing a finished mix for streaming and every other room it will eventually be heard in.
Bio
I started with guitar. Then recording became a way of capturing ideas. Then recording became arranging. And eventually I became fascinated by the whole process of making a finished record.
I'm a retired educator — formerly a French-immersion teacher, later in school leadership with the Toronto District School Board. Music has run alongside all of it. These days I work out of a home studio, chasing records that sound musical rather than simply technically impressive.
