Hey!
I'm Jake. I'm an influential messenger to the media who sends artists' music to thousands of blogs! I employ over 4000 contacts who are looking to discover new music for their readers and listeners.
I started out as a musician who grew tired of wasting money on traditional PR companies. The music industry changes constantly along with the need to adapt strategies to keep up. You need new voices and tactics to get ahead in this dynamic industry. If you plan to drop a lot of music and make some difference, then you'll want to promote it all affordably.
It's fast-paced. And I provide a super PR service designed to keep up with the evolving music business.
Check out my services and solutions for your project to develop real hype that you can sustain over a long period of time.

Montreal, Canada
Bass player, mixing engineer and producer based in Montreal.
On bass selection: from Standard to esoteric I’ve got you covered.
Fender Precision into an Ampeg B-15 with Fet 47 microphone and direct line, recorded through an API preamp and API compressor, is great standard. It is deep, organic, punchy and sits in the mix perfectly.
Other sounds: A Gibson hollow-body bass, a Fender Mustang, a Rickenbacker, a Jazz Bass, A slapped or picked Music Man, Synth bass, Fuzz bass, a Spector or Steinberger... No problem! Great bass tone is my thing.
Effects: I’ve extremely lucky to have worked with thousands of artists in effects selection to craft the sounds that inspired their next song.
If you can dream of the sound, I'll generate it.
Mixing: Today I use Universal Audio plug-ins. In the past I've recorded with Neve and SSL consoles, used all the outboard gear, recorded to tape. So that sound is in my DNA. Mixing in the box allows me to make revisions more quickly, work on multiple projects simultaneously and work from anywhere.
I do miss the days of being in downtown studios, Mixing on SSL consoles, (...but not that much.) The results from mixing in the box today 100% using plugins at home with my monitors, are as good or better. But more importantly it’s simpler to modify older projects and work when I’m inspired.
Tracking: I still like old School tracking. Live performance through tube microphones and live instruments, as much as possible, is my preference) (depending on the genre) editing as sparingly as possible. I believe in honest, live, emotional human performance.
Sequencers are great (when appropriate) and I love locked in tracks, but if it can be performed by a human, the results are usually much better. I am a stickler, and I work with solid players with high standards.
On guitars: I've worked with dozens and dozens of vintage and boutique guitar amps and cabinets. From amp settings to miking techniques to pedal & amp combinations, Real-world reaping or Kemper Profile or VST, I can help your guitar tracks sit just right.
I can do acoustic tracks, funk or pop rhythm guitars, top-line hooks, ambient guitars, rock riffs, and synth-guitar.
If you need a referral for a specialty session musician, I can recommend plenty and host and run the session to get the best tones and performances, while tracking the session Live or by re-amping. Or in a remote session.
Keyboards: I'm a sound designer so programming classic analog synths patches is my specialty. I program patches on MOOG grandmothers, MOOG Phatty or the MOOG ONE or VSTs. Or vintage Roland analog poly synths ( the JX8p is my current coups de cœur)
Synth bass: MIDI, or Analog Moog-bass, Roland GR-77B Synth bass or Roland Gr300 synth guitar lines & pads for pop, indy, industrial, or soundtracks. maybe you need to double a track that's already been laid down. Maybe you're producing a band and need a ghost to replace the existing tracks... Doable
Partnership: A partner to help carry the project forward who can keep the big picture in mind. I have a degree in both Music and Economics. I am always gigging, recording, and touring. I ran an SSL-equipped studio and a Tone boutique downtown Montreal. I've been a national brand manager (Zoom) and franchise development manager. I understand that you have constraints, budgets, and that you may not know exactly what you want until you've heard it, but you still have deadlines. You need a partner.
Art: You're an artist. You're a composer. Your a singer songwriter wondering what to do next. You’re a filmmaker or brand manager. You want to realize your vision. You need your recording project to move three steps forward. I get it. That's what I'm here for. Let's do it then decide to do it again. Project after project.
