About Me

I've been an active part of the music industry for over ten years now. I began the path into darkness as a roadie for the best Psycho-Punk band in the world - Demented Are Go! - I soon realised that engineering was the way for me. I've honed my skills live & in the studio, picking up a degree as well as production/engineering credits on a number of albums along the way. After six years doing mainly studio work in the ol' smoke, I'm currently setting up a permanent base in Birmingham.
