Production

Two rooms, one ear.

The work

From an idea to a finished master

For artists, I take a song from a voice memo to a released master: arrangement, vocal coaching, recording, mix and master. For brands and environments, I work with the music psychologist Dali Kask: together we run Helikuju, Estonia’s very first sound design agency. You can close your eyes, but not your ears.

In their words · production & sound

I finally got my very first professional song. I didn’t think it was possible, because I was really lost.

At reception the guest is already held by our own sound language, leading them into quiet relaxation.

It feels very much like us. Whoever is thinking about sonic branding, I highly recommend it.
