Charles Reeves

Live Engineer

Sound Engineer Chicky Reeves was the Chief Audio Engineer of Manhattan Center Recording Studios in NYC (aka, the home of Timberland). He has mixed legendary greats such as Ray Charles, Tito Puente, Johnny Cash, and Radiohead. Furthermore, VH1 Storytellers, Boyz II Men, Deee-Lite, 24-7Spys, and the likes.

Aditionally, Charles ran his own thriving recording studio out of the famous Hotel New Yorker. In 1997, he collaborated with British singer songwriter, Francesca Longrigg of True Noise, producing and recording her album for Reprise.

The extended project eventually (in 2003) brought him to London. Under the management of One Fifteen, he began working as a sound engineer with clients such as Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), Grace Jones, Barry Adamson, Paul Humphreys (OMD), Claudia Brücken (Propaganda), Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones, Jools Holland, Ben Waters, Ivor Guest, Skye Edwards (Morcheeba), Patrissia, Sam Sallon, Dana Boule, Adam Green, Natalia DiSario, David Frazier, Gambling Hearts, The Cavaliers, Danny Valentine, Saint Jude, Anne Garner, Robert Logan, and Look, Stranger!

In 2004, Chicky fell in love with London and brought his New-York-old-school-style overseas. He continues to collaborate with artists as well as mixing front-of-house sound engineering for Grace Jones, Robert Logan, BEF (formerly Heaven 17), Prince, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), OneTwo (comprised of Paul Humphreys of OMD and Claudia Brucken of Propaganda), Icelandic band Trabant and many others.

Amazing experiencing mixing 2 tracks down with Julian, as well as technically expertise he has a great ear for music and understands the vision behind songs and really helps bring them to life. What i valued also is how collaborative he is...many engineers now just want to work remotely without you sitting in on the sessions . The first of many projects for sure

Joules is one of the most talented producers & musicians I've worked with and I HIGHLY recommend him. We instantly connected and did some great tracks together that later on I was able to release officially and - very successfully. He immediately gets your idea and will always deliver a great result. Not only that he is extremely talented, creative and professional, he also has a great personality and is a precious friend that will do his best to help you with any music advice. I look forward to creating more amazing music with him!

1. Friendly atmosphere to work in 2. Extremely Knowledgeable about mixing and production 3. Has all the kit 4. Listens to what you want but offers ideas to enhance and improve 5. Patient. 6. Patient. I'll be using Joules going forward because of all the above and the added bonus that he can can coach vocals. Yes I put patient in twice on purpose. I'm not the easiest of clients to work with!

Joules Productions has allowed me to completely raise my game as an artist thanks to top notch production standards and real creative flair. Julian Chown is great at bringing out the best in a song, whether through arrangement or music and vocal production. Thoroughly recommended.

I had a great session with Julian on my 40th birthday. He is such a talented musician with great knowledge of music. I am not a professional singer and he was very patient with me and gave me some useful advice. I felt very at ease working with him. He came up with some great ideas on the track and he just worked his magic! It really made my birthday special!

I worked with Joules few times and he delivered exactly what i was hoping and even more. You are welcome to enjoy the song on Spotify Index Dex - BLAME ft. Jenny Mai Works harder than I expected, even after the production was done, he was really helpful if i ever needed anything from him. So i Deffo Highly recommend the Dude.

Jules is not only a great engineer but he really understands how to get the best from you this is the third time i have been to his studio and i have been to quite a few studios over the years but i would say he has produced the best results i have had, My agent said to me " KEEP HOLD OF THIS PRODUCER HE IS A1" i will be back soon to finish off another 8 tracks in the near future i cant wait to finish the Album, CHEERS KEVIN JAY

His knowledge on composition as a keyboardist allowed me to find the right combination of sound direction for the song, which gave me a push forwards in my creativity. His studio is very well equipped with amazing analog tube mics and other vintage gear alongside the most recent trends in digital technology which got the best out of my songs. You couldn’t ask for better. Just brilliant!
