Music producer in London
Joules Productions brings you countless ways to bring ideas to life.
A session with our in-house producer includes musicianship, arranging, vocal directing, songwriting, and mixing + mastering to perfection.
Artist direction, development & connection
You will be working with London music producer, Julian Chown; who first listens to an artist's song idea, then runs forwards into creating an instrumental backing track to suit the writing and artist style. This includes musicianship and vocal production to perfection.
Musicianship
As well as experimenting and exploring sound creation, your producer is a real musician that specialises in arranging and improvisation to quickly find ideas together. With experience of working together with musicians, we are open to all creative methods.
Music Production Method
On hearing a vocalist and song at its bear bones, ideas immediately come and music is created quickly. Sounds for developing the music style are then added, along with rhythm tracks etc.
A step further
Combining genres often works well to bring an individual sound to a recording artist, which can then form a leading style, which is ideal to sell records. This is what majorrecord labels look for.
Vocals
Note that vocals are the main driver of the music, meaning that the music is carefully and sensitively arranged to suit. Music arrangements involve dynamics and harmonics to colour around vocalists ideas with an impressionism approach.
These include:
- Writing of memorable melodies
- Dynamic chord progressions that move with the lyrics
- Lyrically reflective vocal performance guidance
- Vocal harmony arrangements written for vocalists
- Instrumentation performed and arranged
- A mix that confidently reflects the artists style, mood and song
