I started Parklane Production to represent my skills in the music industry as an audio engineer and music producer. When listening to music I perceive the record making process is  in the following way.

Vocal Producer

First and foremost comes the song, its lyrics and melody being by far the most important aspect of the music industry. To me, each one that I have heard offers a glimpse into the minds of one or two people and the times that they existed in together. The combination of music and poetry  adds a second dimension to history that is easier to empathize with and a message that can be better understood than is often detailed by literature alone. The timeless nature of a song is one whose meaning is readily understood by generation after generation and accounts to the creative genius of its author. This genius is not always a matter of intellect but a precedent of the writers awareness of reality and the true nature of mankind.

Recording Engineer

As a recording engineer I look for the best available combination of microphones and preamplifiers to capture an artist's performance within a room. I have found that above all else it is most important to make my clients feel at home during the recording process and then place each microphone to accentuate the desired characteristics of the source. I have spent countless hours working with large format consoles and some of the worlds most sought after microphones to record songs for commercial radio, film and television. 

Music Producer

The music industry has come a long way in the last few years and since the development of online streaming services music is more readily available than ever. Consumer driven playlists and the re-categorization of popular music has lead to a transformation in modern record production, and as creators we are no longer confined to the typical restraints genre once bound to us. When working as a producer I am now able to draw influence from all previously recorded music and  focus on enhancing a songs most creative aspects without having to consider what is deemed acceptable by a radio advertising corporation. I also strive to ensure the musical arrangement supports the emotional qualities of the song and that the performance of each part is as compelling and inspirational as the next. 

Mixer

As a mixing engineer I aim to define the emotion that has already been captured during the recording process, presenting each song in a way that represents an artist in their most compelling light.​ After years of working with the industries top songwriters and producers I have been able to create a unique sound style that unites their best sonic elements into one.
