ABOUT

I am a composer / song writer, lyricist, playwright, remixer, and music producer looking for vocalists, collaborators, and remixers both local and worldwide.

I am a Publishing and Writing member of ASCAP (American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers) and had my music used on the MTV television series "Made" and "My Super Sweet 16."

I started NAJM (No Attitude Just Music) Records Inc., an independent record label, in 2000. In addition I co-founded .GlobalDance. NAJM released our debut single in 2001, by U.K. group Sugarglider (with a remix by the Top 40 Duo Sunscreem). NAJM received glowing press in Billboard, Keyboard, Future Music, DMA (Dance Music Authority), and DJ Times magazines. NAJM Records continues to release dance music with such recent releases as "Que Pasa," "Arabian Nights," and "La Dolce Vida."

I am the composer, lyricist, and co-author of the MCHM musical "Ripper," and currently live in Wellington, Florida, near West Palm Beach. I attended the Commercial Theatre Institute (CTI) for Broadway producers in New York.

I continue to compose, write and produce music across many genres including musical theatre, dance music, film and television.

Influences

Electronic, dance / club music.

Musically I'm very fond of the Pet Shop Boys and Mika. They write keyboard based music that I adore.

Also enjoy theatrical Broadway cast albums. Bombastic 80's musicals are amongst my favorites. Love shows like Phantom, Les Miserables, Chess, Evita, Cats, etc.

EQUIPMENT

My project studio is located in South Florida near West Palm Beach and about an hour north of Miami. I am running the newest Pro Tools 9 complete with a full suite of plug-ins by Waves, Spectrasonics, Avid, Soundtoys, Nexus, Anteres Audio, and many others. I produce and remix in a Mac OS 10.6.8 environment and am available for digital collaborations using Pro Tools 9 sessions.

I have multiple Korg workstation keyboards (O1w/fd, Triton, Triton Extreme), a classic Roland Juno-60, Novation K-Station, and Yamaha C4 Grand Piano. Software synths include Omnisphere, Predator, Nexus ReFx, Trilian, amongst others.
