WORK WITH ME

Every project starts in a different place — a voice note, a rough demo, or a track that needs focused mix work.
 

I work with artists to shape those starting points into finished records, whether that means developing production, refining arrangement, or delivering a final mix that translates.
 

The process is collaborative, flexible, and built around what the music actually needs — not a fixed template.

“Matt creates a space where ideas flow naturally and always brings thoughtful, constructive input.”

HOW PROJECTS TYPICALLY DEVELOP

  • Initial conversation to understand the project and creative direction

  • Collaborative production or focused mix refinement depending on what the record needs

  • Structured feedback and revisions as the track develops

  • Final mixes and masters prepared for release

“A fantastic musician, producer and engineer — always professional and a pleasure to work with.”
Mayah Camara

TYPES OF PROJECTS

Projects arrive at different stages. Some begin with early sketches or voice notes that develop into full productions, while others are already arranged and simply need focused mix work.


Scope, timelines and revision stages are agreed upfront so the process stays clear and sustainable for everyone involved.

FROM VOICE NOTES TO RECORDS

Voice Note / Early Idea
 

A lot of projects begin with simple voice notes — a hummed melody, bassline idea, or rough rhythmic sketch recorded on a phone. These fragments capture the feel of the idea before any production exists.

REIMAGINING EXISITING SONGS

Some projects begin with a clear idea for how an existing song could be reinterpreted — shifting the style, tempo or mood while keeping the essence of the original. These arrangements are built from the ground up to suit the artist’s voice and direction.

 

Original Reference
 

The starting point is usually a reference track — the original recording that informs the arrangement and musical direction.

PROJECT SCOPE & INVESTMENT

Each project is scoped individually depending on the stage of development, arrangement complexity and workflow involved.
 

Some collaborations begin with early ideas or voice notes, while others arrive as finished productions needing focused mix refinement.
 

Once I understand the project, I’ll outline the best approach, timeline and cost before any work begins.


“Great communication and a real ability to bring tracks up to a professional standard.”
— Manni Gill (DJ GMoney)

Alongside collaborative projects I also develop instrumental and production-led work across different moods and structures.

From Voice notes to Records

Finished Production

From that starting point the track develops into a full arrangement — building instrumentation, groove and structure while keeping the original musical idea at the centre of the record.

Reimagining Existing Songs

Produced Arrangement
 

The production rebuilds the song in a new style, developing instrumentation, groove and structure around the artist’s interpretation.
