I make records. I record them, mix them, produce them—sometimes all three, sometimes just one. I’ve spent years in studios chasing the moments that make a song feel alive. Sometimes it’s about the right mic or the right take, but most of the time, it’s about making decisions and trusting them.
I like tape. I like faders. I like things that have weight and character. I don’t like endless tweaking or overthinking. The best records aren’t perfect, they’re just right. You don’t need a million tracks, just the right ones.
Living in New York—and being around jazz—taught me that. Jazz isn’t a genre, it’s an approach. It’s live, it’s happening now, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. That mindset shaped the way I make records: capturing a moment is always more important than chasing some idea of “right.”
I’ve been lucky to work with incredible artists across a lot of genres. Some records have won awards, some have become personal favorites, and some have done both. The best ones stick with you, one way or another.
Most of my time is spent at Dreamland Recording Studio, making records in a converted church where sound moves differently and history bleeds through the walls. If you want to make something real, let’s talk. If not, that’s cool too—just keep chasing the good stuff. That’s all I ever do.
