Looking for a trance music engineer
View this Thread in Original format

Hi,
I don't know if this is the right forum for that but maybe you can help me.
I suppose that many of you know that 80 % of the trance DJs don't produce their tracks and they ask the services of engineers.
I'd like to release a track but as I have no idea about music production, I'd like to do the same and from there I'd be maybe able to DJ more.
So after making a lot of research, I found out that it was mainly the DJs who are in the DJ Mag top 100 and especially from the UK, The Netherlands and Germany who have their own engineer(s)

The best example is Benno de Goeij, the guy from Rank 1 (but I suppose you know that), who makes Armin van Buuren, Jochen Miller's tracks and I think for a lot of other DJs as well. But I doubt Benno will accept to work for me ahahaha
Then there is a guy called Dave Parkinson (http://www.discogs.com/artist/Dave+...nv=D.+Parkinson), who produces for many uk artists, I know he did all the Simon Patterson's track, he also produces for Gareth Emery, Greg Downey, Ben Nicky, Mark Eteson and many more. This is his Myspace page, but the account is deleted, http://www.myspace.com/davidfalconi That's really weird cause this guy has a lot of talent but I suppose that the DJs want to keep this guy for them and asked him to remove his account to keep his "ghost writting" secret, so I don't know how to contact him.

Alex Morph is also using a lot of engineers: http://www.discogs.com/Alex-MORPH-P...release/1817001

In my country there are 2 trance djs, Mr Sam, his tunes are made by a guy called Dimitri Andreas and the other DJ is Ferry tayle and his tune are made by a guy called Stephan R but I don't want to release this kind of cheesy trance which I find completely outdated.

Jorn van Deynhoven has also an engineer called Joshua Cunningham but I don't like the style either

Tiësto, Richard Durand, Dash Berlin, John O' Callaghan, Talla 2XLC, Sied Van Riel, JOOP,Paul Webster, Sophie Sugar, Claudia Cazacu....and the list goes on, use engineers.

My question is , do you guys know other engineers who don't want to DJ and who would be open to work for me ?

depends on how much you pay. no one is going to put a lot of work into something if they're not getting paid a good amount. also, you're looking for producers. engineers are a different topic

Yeah of course I'm agree to pay but it depends how much the engineers use to ask

depends what you want from them. keep in mind these producers don't work for 100$ a track. you're better off learning to make your own music if you're not willing to pay a high price for a well produced track. still, you'd have to add mixing/mastering to the bill if you aren't familiar with either of those

You could contact my friend in the banner below. He doesn't DJ and did some productions and remixes for others.
He recently did make some mixes, but all digital.
Just a suggestion, don't know if you like his style and if he is interested at all, but maybe it's worth a shot.

Someone in Belgium who does the mastering for him I think.

I would track these guys down and send them an email. theyre gonna pitch their top price to you but you might be able to get them down.

Id also email the producers you like who produce their own stuff. they might be glad to work with you to make some $$$ on the side. cant hurt to ask can it?

Gosh, reading this post just makes me think of Team Fortress 2.

Let me master it, i'll make your track louder than anybody else's and it'll sound like nothing anyone has heard on the dancefloor.
When i'm done with your track, you'll make millions selling it to evil regimes all over the world, who'll use it as part of their sonic weapons, that's how loud, ear-deafening and bomb-dropping it'll be.
And it'll cost you absofreakingly nothing.
You ain't heard compression until i mastered it.
MrJiveBoJingles
I will lovingly tweak and master your track until it is loud as .
