Hi! You can call me Al.

I own and run Dirty Beast Studio – and I’ve been making music for as long as I can remember.

I’m a record producer and audio engineer. I’m also a performing musician on the pro circuit, a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Fair to say I wear a lot of hats – but they’re all musical.

And I truly understand what artists and performers need when they’re making a record, because I am one myself.

I also understand the true power of music. And that to really make it land with a listener, it has to hit them just the right way. Everything I do comes down to emotional impact; trying to elicit that feeling.

I’m an accomplished bassist and vocalist who’s worked in every genre; from hip hop to metal. I’ve done BBC Live Lounge sessions, walked festival stages, headlined major venues, and still play on the pro circuit in a successful covers band.

Other than music, I’m all about my wonderful family, whose love and support keeps me motivated. I love to cook, travel – and try to get into nature once a day with forest walks, trips to the beach, or a mooch in the park.

Despite the name, I’m not a snarling, rabid animal… I pride myself on being good to work with, and providing a safe creative space where artists can be themselves.

It’s my job to get the best out of you as a performer, and I’ve got the experience, patience, and skills to make that happen.

So let’s make some noise!
