My Music Journey

Born in the East End of London, I've been writing for most of my life.

During my teenage years, my writing of poetry developed but during my early twenties, my gift of writing manifested itself .

Many moons later, I decided to have my songs professionally recorded by various artists from across the globe. I've also worked very closely with some extraordinary talented singers and artists here in the UK.

It's been a spiritual experience mingled with challenges, never the less, it's been my journey.

Each song that I've written has been penned from my own personal experience. In doing so, I also believe that the songs I've written are meant to encourage souls during the unprecedented times that we're living in. In the link below, I share my testimony of Gods goodness through my lyrics.

My Music Journey spans over twenty years in terms of lyrical writing and developing meIodies but utilising the services of other professionals is a recent journey and one that I encourage you to take if you're a singer/song writer.

I wrote the lyrics and melody, "I can't live without you" in October 2019. My Music Producer Godwin Owulo created the amazing instrumental. It was my first instrumental produced by Godwin; from his studio in Zamfara, Nigeria, Godwin understood the depths to which I wanted to take this song and he accomplished just that but little did I know that we'd develop an excellent working relationship that would result in him producing over 9 tracks for me. Subsequently, we have developed a formidable friendship.

His Will's rendition of the song, I can't live without you, involved the song being rearranged. I was happy with the arrangement as long as the melody was retained. I really liked the original version which was sang by a soulful singer called Katie who I sourced on Fiverr but the vocal group, 'His Will' adapted elements of the song which took it to a whole different level. They placed the bridge towards the end of the story and not in the middle of the song.

I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have worked with this dynamic group. Their acapella style is flawless fused with their undertones of soulful rhythms. 'His Will ' worked tirelessly with rehearsals, giving their time in the studio, committing to a musical video created by Tony Jukes, Music Producer/ Film Director (Infuse hub) and I'm so happy with the music video.

Music & Film Producer, Tony Jukes has worked with some top record labels including Warner Records and the directors from the Blue Story; a British Crime Drama Film which looks at the stark reality of gang life!

'I can't live without you feat His Will' is also available on all major platforms including Itunes and Amazon Music.

Godwin has his own Fiverr Gig, so if you're interested in having that perfect sound for your music then he's the man.

He doesn't just produce music, there is an anointing on this young mans life.

I also honour his beautiful wife Viki Owulo for all of her support and encouragement.

Tony Jukes runs his own studio at: Warstone Parade East, Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham, B18 6NR

TOP TIP

Always liaise with your music producer. It's important to discuss your vision so that you're on the same page. Know the sound that you're trying to create and be flexible.

TOP TIP

Sometimes your song may need to be arranged, it may be too wordy! Always be willing to be flexible but at the same time, if you know what you want, and you're trying to create a certain vibe then as long as that vibe is retained, you're being true to yourself.
