Testimonials
What did other artists experience?
Working with James has proven from time to time for me to be one of the smoothest and most fun processes that can be possible for a music producer like myself. Each time we finish and sign a new demo to a label, we're thinking to ourselves: this can't get any better. But it does, with each new project that we start.
The workflow with James is besides smooth super fast, since he comes up with almost a whole complete idea for the vocals in a matter of time. He has proven to be super creative with adding harmonies, adlips and vocal time placement.
What also makes working with James interesting for me is that he also thinks along with the production and arrangement process as well, which improves my productions and takes them to the next level to get to that final result for a hit. James and I try to experiment with new styles each production , always looking for that fresh and summerish sound.
OLLY WALL
Writing with James is a fantastic experience. He is an exceptional singer and songwriter and his ideas are also pretty unique. We have a similar vision about the music that we want to make and that is one of the most important things that make us connect so well!"
