A Little Bit About Our Head Honcho
With over 8 years of hands-on experience in the music industry, Harry has run successful raves, played alongside industry heavyweights such as Max Chapman, DJ EZ, DJ Zinc, and more (pictured below), had music played on national radio, DJ’d on live radio, produced until he hated every song, mixed until his ears bled, created sample packs from scratch using just a Zoom H1n and some sound design skills… and pretty much anything related to music production – he’s done it, tested it, tried it.
Here he shares everything he’s learned from failure to success so you can learn from his mistakes.
Oh he’s also a Music Production graduate himself!
Ok… That’s Cool. But What About The Other Writers?
We only use writers that have years of experience working in the industry as an engineer, producer, freelance mixing and mastering engineer, DJ, or have completed a Music Production University Degree at a minimum.
This means that all our writers know Music Production like the back of their hands and have been trained by some of the most professional people. We think you’ll find that’s the case if you read any one of our posts, reviews, or product roundups.
