If you are interested in the possibility of Tom producing your album or select tracks, the first step is to contact him directly by email to discuss the possibility of submitting electronic files of your music for consideration. Based on his initial review, Tom may request further information or an opportunity to hear you perform live.

For artists that are interested in recording a professional master under the guidance and production expertise of Tom, the artist's goal and how to achieve it on their budget would be initially discussed and agreed upon before commencing. Tom has a relationship in place with many studios big and small to suit the artists budget, however DNA studios is Tom's preferred studio of choice if possible due to the great staff, gear and vibing atmosphere.

The Foundation to Assist Canadian Talent on Recordings (FACTOR) is a private non-profit Canadian organization dedicated to providing assistance toward the growth and development of the Canadian independent recording industry. Whether an artist is looking to record a demo, full length sound recording, market and promote an already existing album or showcase and tour domestically and internationally, funding is available.

One of the goals of recording a professional master with Tom could also be to submit your project to FACTOR for consideration. FACTOR may then upon approving your application provide enough funding to complete a full-length recording. There are many benefits to submitting a recording produced by Tom – namely, Tom’s extensive production experience and worldwide industry connections, including an extensive distribution network. This indicates to FACTOR that your record has the necessary supports in place for success.
 
For example, Tom’s recent production work on a demo for the Joys resulted in FACTOR CD funding along with funding for a video and touring.

Zeroscape was  also successful in getting Factor European tour support for their Treumuth produced album.

If you already have a completed master that meets Tom’s approval then Hypnotic International can possibly assist you by getting your music heard in the world market. Please visit our international section for more information.
