Remote Guitar Recording
I have a professional home studio setup and work with amp modelling, so sound possibilities are endless! I can either record that specific guitar part you've got in mind for your song, or come up with parts on my own (including top lines, solos, or rhythm parts). I'm also a big fan of using effect pedals to come up with creative guitar parts with an unique edge. I equally love massive sounding heavy riffs and ambient / ethereal clean guitar landscapes.
I love mixing my classic rock / 80's hard rock and modern / alternative metal influences to create something contemporary and fresh sounding, without compromising on the soul and feel!
