Demo CD recording - I can provide a demo CD recording in your own home and I can provide the service to the following areas: London, Surrey, Sussex, Essex, Hampshire and other areas of the UK

A much less stressful way of recording a demo CD or tape

 

This page relates to demo CDs of about three or four songs with piano accompaniment. If you have a more ambitious project that I can help you with, email me here and tell me what you have in mind. If you are interested in recording a number of musicians or you would like to make an album, I would recommend going to a commercial studio with a top quality piano (Steinway or the like) and a good recording engineer. What follows is an easy and inexpensive way of making a professional demo tape or CD for the purpose of finding work etc.

A recording studio can be a very frightening place especially if you are constantly aware of the time factor and how much it is costing you to make that demo cd. Imagine taking all this stress away and being able to take the time to get things right. Imagine the studio being brought to you in your own home. I bring all the recording equipment to you – so you don't even have the stress of traveling.

You will need a demo tape or a demo cd if you are looking for work

Aservice that is avilable in London, Surrey, Sussex, Essex, Hampshire and other areas of the UKAll singers need to make a demo tape or demo CD at some time or other. It is a job that has to be done however daunting it may seem. Without it you will have no chance of getting that recording contract or any other media work. The problem is that it usually entails a lot of expense. The cost of a studio, the services of a pianist, mastering and before you know it – a grand's gone. Then, it won't be too long before dissatisfaction creeps in and you'll feel the urge to make a new one. The whole process again – how unbearable!

A more personal service

There is a better chance of achieving your desired result if you are dealing with one person. When you are dealing with a team of people there is the chance that they will gang up and railroad you into something that they think you should have. A more personal service means a lot less intimidation and who knows you may even end up enjoying the experience. My main objective when I'm recording a singer is to get the very best from them and I try to make recording sessions fun and as relaxed as possible. Making a demo CD need not be a nightmare.

A Lot Cheaper way to make a cd

You are only hiring me – not a team of musicians, technicians, recording engineers etc. It has definitely got to work out a lot cheaper.

A Quality Piano

I use a Yamaha P80 digital piano to record the keyboard track , this makes it very easy to keep the piano track isolated from the vocal, in a sense this has the same effect as putting the singer in a vocal booth. A lot of singers would prefer to work with an acoustic piano, which is all very well, but for the fact that most studios only have a digital piano. If they do happen to have a 'real piano' it could easily be a bad one, and would stand out like a sore thumb on any demo CD you make.

You can hear some of my recordings here

Below is selection of MP3s that I have recorded with various singers. Just 'right clck' and 'save as to download as an MP3.

Sheila Daniels sings "Cheek to Cheek"

Sheila Daniels sings "The Nearness Of You"

Phillip Browne sings "Ain't Misbehavin'"

Phillip Browne sings "When I Fall In Love"

David Edwards sings "There'll Never Be Another You"

David Edwards sings "The Very Thought Of You"

Also if you go to www.the-pianist.co.uk you will find quite a few mp3's of me playing solo: these are only to give you an idea of my pianistic ability and to give you an idea of my playing style. I am really a jazz pianist but I am quite flexible and can do songs from west end shows and even classical stuff.

In a nutshell I have this to offer

A cheaper and often a better quality alternative to a commercial studio. I can provide a piano accompaniment tailored to your needs and a professional demo tape or demo CD of you in the comfort of your own home. If you click and leave any message or query I'll get back to you and we can discuss your requirements. Alternatively telephone me on 01342 835394.
