About 

Roy started assisting in 1991 at Hot nights studios in Fulham, London, learning basic studio etiquette from Ex CBS engineer Graham Dixon and producer Grant Mitchell. After 18 months he followed studio manager Sarah Partridge to Berwick St studios in Soho where he learnt about programming and engineering mainly focussing on urban music. In 1995 he worked for the same company in Jamaica, recording and mixing two albums for their in-house label and also working with UK and US artists and producers as a commercial studio engineer. From there he moved the studio to NYC and worked in Mystic studios for three months before returning to the UK. In 1997 Roy started working with Emily Taylor (Home management) as a freelance engineer then in 1999 became the in-house engineer at the Dairy studios in Brixton.  Now, after helping with the sales of approx 10 million records, he is completely freelance, writing, producing and engineering with many different Artists and Producers and across a number of styles.

Now equipped with a native Pro Tools system, 32 I/O Apogee front and back end and a great production room within the heart of the UK's south coast, we can offer a service second to none. Whether it's vocal production, mixing, tuning or even tutoring, you can be assured you’re getting the highest quality engineering values combined with over 25 years industry experience.

Most recently Roy has completed a Masters degree in the Production of Popular Music from Kingston University and is lecturing and mentoring with ThinkSpace Education (online masters degree). Additional education has seen tutoring at Bournemouth Academy of Modern Music (BAMM) as well as guest lecturing between Bristol dBs, Bournemouth and Plymouth Universities.
