Music producer and sound engineer with over a decade of experience creating, producing, and shaping music across genres and formats. My work is grounded in creative output, artist development, and live performance, with a parallel deep understanding of sound engineering and production systems. Over the years I have produced 300+ released tracks, supported the careers of dozens of artists, and contributed to albums, EPs, singles, and live shows spanning pop, indie, jazz, electronic, ambient, and psychedelic music. My approach is highly collaborative: building trust with artists, creating safe and inspiring studio environments, and helping ideas turn into finished, released work. Alongside studio work, I perform and present music on large stages across Europe — both with my own projects and as a collaborator — while my productions and tracks are played by DJs and selectors around the world.

Industry Experience

    paper The Drunk Poetic Pop Scene

    This Project by Itay Blau, demanded a very high quality, Pop-Like engineering and sound designing.
    Itay wanted to bring to the table a new kind of pop music where the lyrics are very present and meaningful, while using very unique sound pallet.
    Here we built a studio for the album, a very unique room, perfectly treated acoustically, with the instruments we needed and very high quality preamps and analog gear.
    We dived deep in the songwriting and sound design for hours into the nights.

    paper Elder Star

    Elder Star is a Project made for deep listening, a collaboration with Stav Goldberg on piano.
    The project’s shows are sound experiences created by Shai, to the finest details, by engineering and planning a sound system and acoustic environment to create the best listening experience for the audience.
    In this project I use the Sound Console as a modular synth, I used my Midas-MR18’s 4 effect channels, I sent the piano to the effects channels, and sent them to each other in a way that created unlimited feedbacks and depths to play with.
    This project is fully improvised, meaning we record our shows as our album releases, Stav and I are improvising together, reacting to each other’s choices and channeling moments and connection.

    paper Iskander Moon - Salt Moon City

    Salt Moon City is the latest Album by Iskander Moon, Belgium based singer-songwriter.
    We met for 2 weeks in a beautiful studio in Belgium, to record and produce together his debut Album.
    A combination of fine live performances, high-end studio tracking, analog instruments, and electronic music tricks :)
    Iskander’s hypnotising voice is always in the center of this experience.
