REMOTE PRIVATE PRODUCTION COLLABORATION

Alex Calver

Work directly with Alex remotely on developing original material that stands up in clubs & on release schedules.

With over 20 years producing, touring and releasing globally — across aliases including Calvertron, Twocker (with Low Steppa) and Skapes — Alex now applies that experience directly to focused artist collaborations.

This isn’t template-based production or generic mix tweaks. It’s structured, confidential studio work built around your direction and long-term momentum.

Alex’s career has included releases on Data (Ministry of Sound), Toolroom, 3Beat, Cr2, New State and more, alongside remix work for artists including Guru Josh, Korn, Skepta, Sander Kleinenberg and others.

Under his current alias Skapes, his releases on labels including Relief, Elrow, MadTech, Abode and Armada Subjekt have gained regular support from Green Velvet, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, Mark Knight and more.

If you’re serious about developing original material properly, this is where that work happens.

    Studio Services FAQ’s

    How does remote music production work?
    The whole process can be handled remotely, wherever you are in the world. We’ll discuss your ideas, influences and what you’re looking to achieve before getting started. Throughout the project, you’ll receive updates and previews, with opportunities to provide feedback and help shape the finished track.
    Can you help me finish a track I’ve already started?
    Absolutely! Whether you’ve got a rough idea, an unfinished arrangement or a track that’s almost there, I can help take it across the finish line. From improving the production and arrangement to adding new elements, mixing and mastering, the service can be tailored to whatever your track needs.
    Can you produce a complete track from scratch?
    Of course! You don’t need to have anything prepared. We can work from reference tracks, a particular sound or simply an idea of what you’d like to create. I’ll take care of the production from start to finish, with your input along the way.
    Do I need production experience to work with you?
    Not at all. I work with everyone from complete beginners to experienced producers and established artists. Whether you need help developing your ideas or you’re looking for an experienced engineer to bring everything together, you’re in the right place.
    Can you work with my existing project files, stems or ideas?
    Yes! You can send over audio stems, MIDI files, samples, reference tracks or existing project files. I’ll assess what you’ve got and work out the best way forward. If you’re using a different DAW, exporting stems is usually the easiest option.
    How much creative input will I have throughout the process?
    As much as you’d like! Some clients have a very specific vision, while others prefer to leave the creative decisions to me. It’s a collaborative process, and your feedback is always welcome. The aim is to create something you’re genuinely excited to release.
    How long does it take to finish a track?
    That depends on the complexity of the project and how much work is involved. Finishing an existing production can be quicker than creating something entirely from scratch. Once we’ve discussed your requirements, I’ll be able to give you a realistic timescale.
    Will my track be professionally mixed and mastered?
    Yes. Complete production projects include professional mixing and mastering, ensuring your finished track sounds polished, powerful and ready for release. Standalone mixing and mastering services are also available.
    Who owns the finished track, and can I release it under my own name?
    For ghost production projects, the finished track is yours to release under your own artist name, with no public production credit required. Any specific ownership, royalty or licensing arrangements will be agreed before work begins, so everything is clear from the outset.
    How much do your production services cost?
    Every project is different, so pricing depends on what’s involved. Whether you need help finishing an existing track, a complete production from scratch, or professional mixing and mastering, I’ll provide a quote based on your requirements. Just get in touch and tell me a little about your project.
