Sonicturtle Studio

Slocan, BC – Recording, Producing, Mixing for 20+ Years

From humble mobile studio beginnings to the dedicated headquarters in Slocan, BC, Sonicturtle Studio has evolved into a vibrant hub for sonic exploration and artist development. For over two decades, I’ve been recording, producing, and mixing music for a diverse range of artists—on location and across multiple studio setups. For the past six years, Sonicturtle has been a fully functional recording facility helping independent artists bring their debut albums to life.

Production Highlights

My production credits span genres and continents, including:

• Delhi2Dublin – Debut Album: Fusion of bhangra, Celtic, and electronic music.

• Buckman Coe – Gathering Storm & Malama Ka ‘Aina: Soulful global grooves.

• Gemma Luna – Around the Sun: Ethereal folk storytelling.

• Rup Loops – Human Radio: Children’s hip-hop with a message.

• Jhalaak – Sufi Hip-Hop with master musicians of Rajasthan.

• Pat Gordon – 3 Medicine Albums: First Nations healing music.

• Shine – Great Central Sun: Australian didgeridoo mysticism.

• Diemm, Sarah Calvert, SACR3D, Ina Filip, Mah ze Tar, and more…

I’ve also had the joy of working with Kashmiri sitarist Mohamed Assani, Peruvian artist Nostic Marco, and Cree singer Renae Morriseau. Each collaboration is an opportunity to craft a unique sonic experience tailored to the artist’s vision and process. My focus is always to co-create a strategy that supports the artist through the full recording journey—creatively and technically.

Studio Gear

Over the past decade, I’ve curated a solid toolkit to deliver professional results:

• Preamp: Neve Portico II

• Audio Interfaces: Lynx Hilo, Apogee, MOTU

• Microphones: A growing selection of high-quality mics

• Monitoring: DynAudio, Genelec, Adam, Yamaha, KRK
