Hello People!
Born and raised in Sydney, relocated to Melbourne late in 2006... Started playing guitar at age 15, and bass guitar very soon after... Took 1 year of classical guitar lessons, then learnt by ear until now, with a few random lessons here and there... Studied a Diploma in Contemporary Music, went in as a guitarist, started doing a bit of vocals, keys and drums during the course, and came out with more interest in the production side of things... Funny how things change like that!
So now, I rarely play or write on the guitar, and spend most of my time in the studio... I've collaborated and engineered with many different artists over the years covering a wide range of styles -- hip hop, drum n bass, jungle, breaks, folk, classical, jazz, reggae, blues, soul, dub, dancehall, rock, plus whatever else you can think of! Also written a few tracks for a couple of short films, recorded some music and audio for short films...
