I don’t just "press record." I bring 30 years of experience as a producer, sound engineer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist. Trained as a pianist with extensive vocal-direction experience, I understand musicality, composition, and performance dynamics in a way standard engineers don't. Whether in person or online, I bridge classic analogue character with modern digital precision in a relaxed, collaborative environment.

Yes—both options are available and pushed equally. You can book in-person studio sessions at my Battersea facility for tracking, vocal sessions, and hands-on production. Alternatively, if you are working from elsewhere, we can work 100% remotely. You send over raw stems, and we collaborate via high-quality real-time streaming, phone/video check-ins, and clear review files.

Full Production: Shaping raw ideas or acoustic sketches into complete, release-ready records.

Mixing & Mastering: Polishing pre-recorded tracks for balance, warmth, and radio-ready punch.

Arrangement & Musicianship: Adding custom piano, vintage synths (Prophet, Rhodes, Wurlitzer), acoustic/electric guitars, bass, or string arrangements.

Vocal Coaching & Direction: Guiding singers in the booth to capture their absolute best vocal dynamics and performance.

It’s relaxed, comfortable, and focused. My main rule in the room: I am almost always recording. Artists often deliver their finest, most authentic performances when they are at ease and not overthinking the "red light." Take your time, grab a tea or coffee, and let the creative process happen naturally.

Before diving in, we’ll discuss your vision using 2–3 reference tracks you love. My sonic landscape spans from the atmospheric depth of Pink Floyd and Vangelis to classic 80s synth textures (Depeche Mode) and punchy modern pop/electronic production (The Weeknd). This ensures we craft the exact sonic personality your music calls for.

Remote mixing, arrangement, and session tracking typically take 3–5 working days from stem receipt. Every project (in-house or remote) includes 3 rounds of minor revisions based on your consolidated feedback to ensure total satisfaction before final sign-off.

Once your account is settled in full, you receive all pristine 24-bit masters and stems. Here is how ownership, sync, and credits break down:

• Mixing & Session Work: 100% buyout — you retain all rights with zero master royalties.
• Full Production: Subject to a standard 5% Producer Royalty and credit: "Produced & Mixed by Julian Chown".
• Sync Placements: If I successfully place your record in TV, film, or advertising sync, licensing income is shared on a 50/50 split.
• Session Credits: Anyone involved in the recording sessions must be formally credited in release metadata and liner notes.
• Songwriting: Any co-written music/melody contributions are registered via PRS/MCPS upon completion.

You can book sessions or request project quotes directly through the online booking system on this website. A 50% deposit secures your studio dates or remote project slot, with the balance due upon final file delivery or session completion.
