Keyboard player - songwriter - musical director - pianist - synthesizer programmer.
hearthis.at is where I post my latest instrumental/backing tracks.
Imagine having your very own unique backing tracks! If you're a singer or instrumentalist I can program and record original backing tracks for your set.
Karaoke backing tracks tend to be quite innacurate and rather stale versions of songs. I can produce powerful, exciting backing tracks designed for live performance with all kinds of edits.
The possibilities are almost limitless. Extended versions, extended intros, clap along sections, solo sections, etc.
Here you'll find some examples of my work.
The tracks here have an instrumental vocal line so you can follow the song, etc.
I'm not always note perfect (although I'm usually closer than most), but my tracks have energy, sound great through live PA systems, and can have some original twists that can give your performance originality and really make you stand out.
I cover a range of genres. In addition to pop/dance/edm type tracks I've also produced jazz tracks for instrumentalists and standards for crooners.
So if your looking to freshen up your set, or there are songs you can't find, or you want a song given a different treatment, let me know your ideas.
I've published a short guide to which outlines the process of producing custom tracks. Let me know, and I can email it over to you.
There's no obligation, I can produce some 'rushes' or 'clips' for your backing track(s) and you can then decide if you want to proceed.
I can work on one song or work with you on an entire set. Become your 'musical director' almost, if you like.
More examples of my work including original songs and pieces synthesizer programming demos can be found on my soundcloud page.
