RECORDING & PRODUCTION
What could be better than making great music with great artists?
It's important to take the time to shape and capture the perfect sound at source. As your recording engineer you can just relax, do what you do, and trust we'll capture the magic!
As producer Animesh would be more involved in the overall sonic vision for the project, discussing your goals, influences etc, to help you achieve your unique sound. If you've already got that part down, great, Animesh can help you enhance it and be another creative collaborator supporting you.
MIXING
Mix engineers typically fall into two categories: 'In the box', and 'Out of the box'.
There are major benefits of using both methods and that's a great topic of conversation. But increasingly people are finding a middle ground using the best of both worlds. This has given rise to a new kind of studio: the Hybrid studio.
Anthemic Sound is a hybrid studio using the best of the digital and analogue world to bring your mixes to life.
ANTHEMIC PIANO
Anthemic Piano is one of the first remote session musician services for piano. Perfect for producers or DIY artists wanting a real piano recorded for their productions. Check out our promo video here.
The piano is a beautiful Yamaha YUS1 disklavier, perfect for Indie/Rock/Pop. It has built in electronics which means the piano can also play itself. Yes there are great sounding piano sample libraries out there, but you just can't beat the real thing, and now it's never been easier (or quicker) to get a real piano recorded for your music. Just send me the midi part you've written, I can play it back on a real piano and give you different miking options depending on the sound you're going for.
If you don't have a piano part for your music, don't worry, I'll write and perform it for you. So get in touch to let me know what you need.
COMPOSITION
Animesh grew up playing classical piano inspired by great composers like Rachmaninov, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Grieg and Chopin and at age 14 I finished writing my first piano concerto, winning many classical competitions for composition. After developing an interest in songwriting, Animesh has learnt from the best working extensively with pop writer extraordinaire Jamie Scott on projects for artists such as Tom Grennan, James Bay, Niall Horan, and many others. With a number of sync publishing deals in place, you will have heard Animesh's music on many TV shows across ITV, Channel 4 and the BBC. Please do get in touch to discuss your project.
MARKETING SERVICES
Let's face it, pursing a career in music not easy. Record labels aren't looking for artists, they're looking for established brands.
Before plucking up the courage to get into music full-time, Animesh worked as a marketing strategy consultant for one of the world's leading digital marketing agencies. With over 10 years of experience working either for, or consulting for some of the world's biggest brands, Animesh's portfolio includes Philips, Skype, HP, Expedia, News International, Virgin, Intel, Nationwide Building Society, and Sony Playstation.
SONG WRITING
Sometimes it's hard to get your ideas out of your head. Or to know where to start when trying to write a song.
Collaboration can be a great way to unlock your creativity. having some mentoring can really help. Book a writing session with Animesh, exploring song vision, find inspiration, write, and record.
LIVE VIDEOS
YouTube has become the primary search engine for music. It is also second only to Google overall for searches. Simply put, if you are an upcoming artist, you need to have a presence on YouTube.
These can be a mixture of music videos, or simple covers of popular songs, or your own songs. The artist acoustic video has evolved quite quickly from very basic shot on a phone to now decent HD cameras and well-recorded live audio. You may not have the equipment or expertise to produce good quality live videos for YouTube so that's where Anthemic Sound can help. We have many great spaces to set up in, it doesn't have to be in the main room or live room.
You are welcome to bring your own camera, or you can use ours, a professional camcorder Canon XA10, or bring your own camera crew to capture the visuals. Audio will of course sound amazing and better represent you online.
