In the studio, Finn has recorded and produced a number of projects, recently including an indie rock EP and a rave-inspired dance music album.
Why Finn?
“Finn went above and beyond in our recording session. They exercised a perfect balance between going with my desired sound and giving their own musically-inclined suggestions for the sound, and they expertly setup the studio in accordance with our discussions. I especially appreciated how they would explain each step to me clearly, to check that I was happy with each decision made. Finn produced, mixed and mastered the two songs in perfect alignment with our vision, and sent me the masters amazingly quickly whilst retaining a brilliant quality and care. Overall, working with Finn was not only a highly professional and productive experience; it was also great fun! I hugely look forward to any future opportunities to work with Finn again.”
