Music Is Play 4 Adults
I'm Lounge, a writer and producer working out of 4000 Studios in Brisbane.
As kids, we learn everything through play, and I’m fairly sure art is just play for grown-ups.
In the studio, I see my job to help you find that spirit again: loud, messy, maximalist, and maybe at times a little uncomfortable. I love bubblegum pop and lo-fi indie equally, and I'm always hunting for the magic spot where they collide.
Chorus is king, melody is queen, and structure is your superpower.
If you believe you've got the drive but maybe not the resources. If you sense your true direction, but could use someone in your corner to back your instincts, you're exactly who I want to work with.
No snobbery, no ego, no chasing trends. Just curiosity, hard work, laughter and if we get this bit right, the courage to truly express yourself.
Let’s Play!
Who TF is Lounge?
G’day Peoples!
Lounge here (yes like the couch). I am Music Producer, Multi instrumentalist and Songwriter, working out of 4000 Studios in Brisbane. I have been obsessed with music since I got my first shitty red guitar at 6 years old. In year 1, my school teacher yelled at me for being too aggressive with my guitar pick playing “Chop Suey” by System of a Down. What a doofus.
These days I’m happily married to my band Phil and the Blanks. As the bands guitarist & producer a lot of my creative juju gets distributed here.
My general philosophy on production is that it all has to start with a song that makes you feel something. If we’re not laughing, crying or bopping our heads with an Ice Cube face. Forget it.
My favourite way to work with someone is to be involved from the conception of the song right through to the final master. Recording your music should feel like play and I generally try to approach all aspects of music in this way. Taking yourself too seriously can obstruct the humanity of your songs. Without humanity we’re really just left with a bunch of sounds. And the thing about a bunch of sounds is, no one cares.
I love making music and I love talking about music, so let’s connect and discuss what you’re excited about right now!
